For you watch guys....
I thought the teaser ad I saw was a typo so I clicked. I guess I'm from another world. It's kinda cool but not 6 figure cool.

I’ll take two! LOL. Yikes that’s a crap-ton of money for a watch! It is pretty cool, though.

They talk a bit about that watch starting around the 6min mark here. NSFW...

Not my cup o' tea, but cool from a intricate mechanical perspective...

Thank heavens it's 50% off -- otherwise I'd never be able to afford it! Smile

I sent it to my wife. She laughed. I think that means I’m getting one.

The watch linked in the OP is pretty damn spendy, but click on some of the thumbnails on that page. Yikes!

You guys, and gals, want to see some expensive watches? Like many many?

Look up Producer Michael on youtube.

This guy makes a ton of money and has unbelieveable amounts of extremely expensive watches as well as many upper high end cars.

He's actually a hoot and the kind of guy you'd enjoy meeting. He's a little odd in a cool friendly way.

His most recent video is about cheap watches, under $5,000 or so.

But he has watches that cost a half a million bucks!

On his youtube channel, click on Playlists and look for the watches section.

Nice, I wonder what kind of batteries it takes.

So that 'watch' costs more than my house, both cars, and investment account...combined? Yeah, people are waaaaaaaaaaaay stupid, and rich people lead the way in that category. I love watches, but there is a reasonable, logical, limit on what I'd ever be willing to spend to ultimately tell time.

I've seen some of his videos...you're right, he doesn't come across as particularly pretentious, etc.

But it also shows what an absolute obscene amount of $$ some folks get...when you can drop that kind of $$, over and over, on watches.
