How's that for a cryptic title to suck people in...

I don't really have a grail watch, but there are a couple in the "I'd love to have that but no way I could bring myself to pay that much for a watch" category. One that I love is this Vacheron Constantin (all pictures borrowed):

Beautiful, incredibly well made, but it costs 13x what this one does:

Now, I'm not saying Nomos' craftsmanship, sophistication and build quality is up to VC standards, but it sure ain't shabby, either. The Nomos is $2620, the VC is $34,000. So, what do you all think? Is the VC worth 13x the Nomos?
