you know what I'd like as a watch?

Something so damn thin it's like having a piece of cloth around your wrist. Can I find anything like that? Nope.

Holy Cow. I clicked the link!!!!

What's your budget? And how about this which is just 4.2mm thick?

when i say like a piece of cloth what would be fantastic would be a watch bound IN a piece of cloth! The strap something like 1-2 inches across, that kind of thing.

Have I hit on a gap in the market?

I dont like it, but I didnt comment: why **** on your chips? In my opinion it represents very poor value for money too. For a similar price you could comfortably (theoretically) buy 2x stainless steel Rolex Daytonas and a nice Submariner. Unlike the Rolex pieces though, this is available with virtually no lead time at all, which suggests to me that people arent flocking to their door. Now, dont get me wrong: Im not a big Rolex fanboi (Im an old Omega fanboi!); but in light of that, it appears to offer very poor value, even if you like the trying too hard style...

Fortunately though, we dont all like the same pieces.

Not for me - even at 10th or 100th of the price. Sort of watch I'd expect to appeal to professional footballers.

There are plenty of other watches that would be on my list for that price.

I'll stick with the Sinn I'm wearing ta.

Its quite funky in a meccano kind of way, £50 under 14k though makes me think I am in the wrong job!

I will stick with my Ohsen watch for the time being
