Let's tell it the way it is: none of our expensive watches are purchased for their "usefulness" or "utility". In fact, they're not even particularly accurate on keeping time.
We buy them because we like, enjoy, and value them - which are plenty good reasons all by themselves.  |
The lumen fades in 15 mins? So it’s a pseudo skeleton? I still think it’s cool but I really like the rose gold dial dato... maybe when I have a banner year.
