Watches have lost their utility since the invention of mobile phones.

Now they are just fashion statements.

I haven't worn a watch in almost10 years now.

So the answer is no!

I hate to say this but after breaking the most expensive watches I haven't worn a watch in almost 10 years also. I don't intend to wear one either. But I just might feed a country for a whole day than buy this watch.

I always loved watches. But i love my wallet just a little bit more. My 200dirhams classic G-shock is all i need around my wrist.

I like watches, especially mechanical watches. I like the engineering of this watch, it is just amazing.

To come back to your question, this is a philosophical question that I can't answer. I can't imagine how it is to have so much money available to treat myself witch such kind of artwork on my wrist.

During this time I would probably inject capital in healthcare, knowledge and research. I would organise conference-calls to discuss how we'll regain social life after such crisis. 

Or, when I achieved such status that I can afford such thing, will I be very greedy? Will I only be busy with which stocks and properties I can buy cheap as possible so I can gain my portfolio when the market goes up again?

Can't answer your question.

$280 000? And they can't put numbers on the face? Honestly, how much extra could that cost?

My question is If you add a supercharger will the time pass any quicker.

Probably not, but you might have to change the watchs' battery more regularly- like everyday or something.
