You might guess. :lol:

I'm still in the first minute but the intro snapped me into a huge double-take. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

I'd be mighty happy with that as my collection. Until the insurance bill came!

Nice video & a great selection of watches.

Seems I agree with them, as I have a few of these including Bel Canto, but also the Grand Seiko and I have a D Dornbluth & Sohn being made at present. 15 month wait since I ordered that.

And both of the mentioned cars :D (i8 and McLaren)

Apart from the constant stream of tedious similes and analogies (and the fact that BAD isn’t an adverb) it’s a pretty good selection. Among the affordable offerings the Dornblüth and the Bel Canto hold up well.

It's hard to believe that watches can cost more than the cars you've shown us. :D

I'm still very conflicted over the hell canto.

I don't like "fancy" watches but every time I see one online I check my bank account.

It was all very mainstream. Typical Watchfinder really, all very nice, but lacking a little in character. The JLC stood out for me. And the blue dialled Lange, for me, is just about the best they have produced. I wouldn't turn my nose up at any of them, but if I had the cash, I would be looking elsewhere.
