:
From a euro point of view i agree with Jeff they aren't my cup of tea, but in term of quality i would liken them to IWC, very well made and finished, but you need to appreciate the brand.

: it's all a matter of personal taste and
: preferences, but I am curious about the
: appeal of putting the usual elements (hands
: and date) in such weird places. The one on
: the right is fairly conventional (three
: hands on a center pinion, date at the bottom
: and moon over to the side), but why do they
: have the power reserve indicator dominate
: the dial?? I mean, how often do you need to
: check this particular gauge? The watch on
: the left would give me a headache -- why put
: everything off-center? I mean, why even make
: the case round, if every element is to be
: out-of-round?

: I know that these are very fine watches, with
: many dedicated followers of the brand, but
: the designs just do not appeal to me. of
: course, some might say the same about our
: beloved Monacos and Carreras!!

: enjoy the watches!!
