What was your first watch you purchased?
The first watch I purchased was a Frank Muller.

Who on the Nets has an impressive watch collection?
Deron Williams (D-Will) and Joe Johnson both have nice collections of gold timepieces.

Are you a Gold or White Gold type of guy?
I like gold watches better. I like to dress according to how my watch fits the style or outfit I’m wearing.
