A ROSE by any other name would smell as sweet!!

The great Shakespeare wrote those famous words. Little did he know that some day his ROSE would turn out something as gorgeous and stunning as this!! What an absolute beauty!!

That will NEVER happen. No DD will ever be made from any other metal unless it's a precious one.

I have not seen the estimated price of the watch. It is a beauty. I like the new colors of the Day Dates.

If you win,contact me first!I`m closing the budget of my first movie,but I need some extra cash,and it would be an extra opportunity for you to help with some sponsorship!
Plus,if you demand,you`ll get a lead role with hotest actresses as your partners!
You know,it`ll be some combo of James Bond and Kojak(wearing new DD,of course)fighting zombies...
