I don’t think I could pull of wearing that watch. Everyone would just assume it is a Chinese Knock-off.

wearing the GDP of a small country on your wrist is a bit of an overstatement. It screams, "over-compenstation!"

What does that price equal in USD? Is it GBP or Euro? Plus the decimal point is throwing me off.

I'm sure anyway you look at it is a huge number!!

BTW - I thought the PCLs on my GMT IIc were a little blingy... guess not so much!

Well excuuuuuuuse meeeeee!

I guess I just read the intro and conclusion and skipped some of the stuff in the middle. Kind of like my approach in college

However, I would still buy 84,000 116710s instead of that thing. Of course that's probably a mute point since I don't think I will ever have $585K to blow on watches. Nor would I need 84,000 of them
