like the different ones...the ones that reinterpret how we read
time. Two hands are okay but they've been repeated over
and over...here's an example of "different" to me.
It's pretty sweet. Still tells time and it doesn't take too long
how to figure it out. I should have know the price tag was
going to be a bit high when the only US vendor is on Rodeo
Drive (the pricey Rodeo drive... Dad, it's the Rodeo where
we parked the Oldmobile between the Hummer and the lexus).
Anyway...I called the place and with my best voice asked
for the price. The lady calmly said "56 thousand dollars"...
I thanked her as quickly as I could and got off the phone.
56 GRAND! For a watch! And I bet there aren't any kind of
coupons offered to get the price down to, say, 52 grand.
I knew when a girl was our of my league (heck...I married
a girl out of my league) but it always took me a while to
figure it out. Here, within 2 seconds the phone lady let me
know that the chances of me ever owning this watch flew out
the window and far far far into the sky.
The bigger question is who buys this kind of watch? There
has to be a market otherwise they wouldn't offer it. HOLY COW!
Most people would say to themselves,"Gosh...do I spend my
entire year's salary or perhaps pay the mortage, phone bill,
utilities, cell phone car(s), etc. etc. OR buy a sweet watch..
..decisions decisions."
