You couldn't pay me to wear that. I guess everyone has their price, but it would take Bezos and Musk type money to get me to put that on my wrist. Insert puke emoji here.
PS: The puke emoji isn't working.
Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

Two watches - one Submariner, one high quality quartz for knockabout duties.
No frontal lobes required. Do it.

The one in Design District? I visited that with my son in February, had a lovely conversation there even though I was not actually shopping. Maybe it was the same guy, he was very pleased when he heard I had heard of Grand Seiko and even owned one.
Nice neighborhood for watch shopping otherwise too, did you visit the Lange boutique?

He's a proper watch nerd - owns about 10 lovely pieces from the aforementioned brands. He insisted I try on a bunch of stuff knowing that I wouldn't buy anything (not today at least anyway.

Yessir! He's a tanned Russian chap - sounds like the same guy.
Ooh lange boutique eh? Haven't visited, just stopped for lunch. Might have a look, though I get more excited about things that I might actually buy some day soon...
