Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler Does anyone have this brand of watch?

John, No sapphire crystal.. Mineral glass crystal..... I would rather spend the extra money to get a sapphire crystal.

Thanks though.

The most important thing here is to get exactly what you want. No regrets!

I agree, that is what i have done with every watch that i have bought thus far.

This was a fun thread.

I looked into that brand of watches. I had some misconceptions. I did not know that it was a new company and they had an internet direct business model. Their mission is to sell beautiful Swiss made watches without inflated prices.

I would be inclined to get one now for three reasons.

They could be bought and the new parent company could:
1. raise prices
2. lower the quality
3. both

When i started searching the net, i was unable to find any negative comments. Most of the people were of the opinion that this particular brand a VERY good value, for the price.

Did you order yet?

Just saw your post. That's great. What an accomplishment of human ingenuity, understanding and perseverance.

I don't recall who mentioned the Emporio Armani watches, but they are gorgeous watches at a reasonable price.

One of many styles

John said he has one, at first i though they were going to be ridiculously expensive. However, as you stated, they are reasonably priced.

Yeah, Alex; Armani has about 500 watches on their site. This one is mine. You ought to know me better by now than to think for even a nanosecond that I'd buy a "ridiculously expensive" watch. I paid about $150(as you saw, I'm trying to get you down under $200, too!). As I mentioned before, I immediately replaced the leather strap with a Speidel expansion band, which is the only type I'll wear.

John, i know your like me.. A value oriented person.. However,! you never know what some people like to "splurge" on, and i did think that this was something you splurged on... For some it's Scotch, others watches or cars... And still others spend monies on new speakers ...



I do appreciate the valiant efforts from everyone... I think i am going to wait to get my primary watch back from being serviced. After i pay for that, i will evaluate and see what type of time frame it will be when i will buy a new watch.

If anyone happens to come across something else, please feel free to share. I will keep an open mind until te cash is gone!
