    It’s funny that you brought up the Vacheron, because I was close to name checking the VC as an alternative precisely because Vacheron has such an impeccable reputation and history that, whether or not the design is to my taste, makes it a more logical choice. And yes, it’s a little unfair to newer brands to use history as a makeweight, but that is, for better or worse, one of the considerations in the luxury game. I’d take the Overseas over the Longitude every time.

    I…love it? Yeah, I think I love it. Don’t really care for the bracelet style much, but the pink and black look really good together.

    I’d never buy one; too much money for a “fun”, whimsical watch I’d only wear on occasion, but I’m glad something like this exists.

    Nope, still does nothing for me.

    This one was about $500. I see the retail on the J&Co at $21k.

    Agreed. It/They are rather smart looking, but at £15,000 ('ish)... that's at one too many zeros for me.
