It is crazy that a company like Asprey expects the buyer to pay more for THEIR advertising, when they should be paying the buyer (in a discount) for the privilege of advertising on your wrist.

Usually these types of mods leave me felling like I could go either way, but in this case the color combination makes them look like toys rather than luxury watches to me.

Don't mind the mods but why do they ruin the dials by advertising their name? That alone would stop me buying one

In all fairness, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But after what they've done, the watch should worth 50~60% of original price.
