Dwight Howard Quotes

I actually have a number of lovely watches from the International Watch Company.

I like a few vintage Rolexes, and Panerais are good. I'm not into sports watches - I like chronometers.

I keep telling everybody with pride that my first-ever timepiece was a Cartier.

I've always loved watches my whole life. When I was growing up, I always thought of having a great watch as that next step - of making it, of a rite of passage.

Every man needs a good, solid watch. My favorite watch is the Presidential Rolex. I own many watches, but this one is usually the one on my wrist. I buy mine in the Diamond District in New York City. Classic.

If I have a weakness, it's for timepieces - if I see one I like and can afford it, I'll buy it.

I've got two Rolexes that I'm very proud of - a gold Presidential that was a gift and a white gold one I gifted myself. I'm trying to step my game up and get a few more of those.

I have always been a big fan of watches.

I love watches, for sure. The watch I love the most is Richard Mille because it's part of something that started from zero.

Time is money, so I went and bought a rolex.

A fine timepiece is part of dressing like a gentleman. When I first made a little money, I bought my first watch which was a Rolex Daytona. It was just one of those things that said I was successful.

I have a Rolex, but no diamonds. Rappers wear diamonds to compensate for a lack of fashion sense. I don't even have pierced ears - I'm not into that; it's too much.

I've spent as much as 30 grand on a watch but it's not about flaunting my wealth. I don't have many extravagances but watches are my biggest one. I must have 30 of them now. I've been collecting since the age of nine, when I won a black TAG in a karting event.

I'm not one of those crazy collectors - I don't have a hundred watches. Only five or six. But I do like to wear a nice watch, especially if we're on the road and I'm wearing a nice suit.

I have over a hundred clocks. I've got fancy clocks and clocks from all over the world that people made for me.

I want people who see my watches to go, 'Wow!' And the more they look at them, the more they go into it, the more I want them to say, 'Wow!' I work on a razor blade between gimmickry and amazement.

I think I'd have to say my favorite IWC. They have been around for so long and the craftsmanship is top notch. A watch maker that has been in business over 100 years has to know what they are doing.

My only market analysis was to look around and see that, in one way or another, most watches are inspired by watches that were made in the 18th and 19th centuries. If I wanted a watch like that, I'd much rather buy the real thing at auction than a replica.

I really like watches and have about eight.

The first thing I got was a jet. And it's the last thing I'd get rid of if I go bankrupt.

When it comes to watches, it's ironic that you can spend thousands on an exquisitely made mechanical watch, and yet it will be less accurate than a five-quid digital bought from a petrol station.

I sort of collect watches.

I don't think I'll ever be a real boat reporter. My Rolex isn't big enough.

There are several really interesting clocks in Berlin.

I didn't know what a Rolex cost to be honest. I'm a Seiko and Timex guy, and always have been.
