Review of watch or Review of How Awesome that website is at taking pictures and instigating people to buy watches and How cool he was before the website even began. And how quickly the website became awesome.


None - the - less .. the Pictures are mesmerizing and that watch is indeed gorgeous!!!

That review and set of pictures should completely validate that you are making the right purchase too.

Great review, the only comment I didn't understand was this:

The bracelet, perfectly constructed and very solid —unlike the bracelet on the stainless steel reference— is a pure treat for the eyes and extremely comfortable to wear

Are you saying the steel version is less solid or not as well constructed or less comfortable? As far as I know, they are of identical thickness and construction. Perhaps I'm wrong?

Well I don't need instigation in this case, this piece is a killer, I just need 90K, anyone want to make me a loan running on 50 years at 0% interest?

I also picked up on that. I think the comment in the review is way off the mark.
