JJ, your reply made me actually laugh out loud! You're worth a million bucks my fiend!

Heart on the sleeve

Having said that, many of those monstrosities are, in horological terms, light years away from what Rolex produces. But to be honest, I can't get used to them as well. Too alien

Well JJ, As I undersand it they put this on your credit card!!

Dewitt Incognito 2008 is a unique watchmaking concept developed with contributing of DeWitt and Jean-Michel Wilmotte. Watch received strong bidding from the beginning (100,000 Euros) and was sold for 400,000 Euro or $630,000. From technical point of view the watch is just amazing justifying the price. It comes with a flying tourbillon regulator, which keeps the watch accurate. There are also five barrels and has a power reserve that lasts up to three weeks. The structure of the watch is made from a lithium-aluminium alloy, and is framed by a spectacular exterior crafted from equally unique materials introducing the completely innovative design of the model.

Drugs, my son. Drugs!!!

I believe Chicago said it best in a classic song: "Does anybody really know what time it is? Does anybody really care?"

You check your cellphone

Actually, if you have any of these watches, your cellphone is probably at least a Vertu, so you can just call the concierge and ask him/her to remind you of which city you are in, what time it is, and please, oh, please, send you a snack of Cristal champagne and beluga caviar.

But I'm not MOST people. I like to call a spade a spade. If those watches look like CRAP, then that's exactly what I call them!!!
