    The watch I'd love to own is the Tag Huer Monaco, bit unlikely unless I win the lottery.

    I treated myself to this for me 40th and I don't regret it one bit. There's a shop called watches of Switzerland in Canary Wharf and it draws me every time. There's a b&o shop in the wharf too I haven't been in there once.
