In Response To: Re: ETA everywhere? ()

: ONE VERY IMPORTANT FACT to understand when you
: buy an expensive watch like a Rolex or an
: Omega. The cost of the watch movement is
: only a VERY SMALL part of the final cost of
: the watch. Much like with a luxury car like
: Mercedes or BMW, the engine makes up only 5%
: of the cost of the vehicle. In many of the
: Rolex/Omega class watches, the movement
: itself only cost $50-100.

This is what lots of people don't understand!
This is 100% true! Good job, Derek.
