Alright, tell me what you think. A 1913 Zenith pocket watch taken to a horologist, remade as a marriage watch with a remastered face. All internal parts perfectly intact. Its really big, a 46, but super cool and unique.

Yep. A buddy and I are going at 1:30. Hoping they have a wider variety of Breguet's lineup.

Interesting update to the Spirit lineup by Longines. They got rid of the stars on the dial. I like it. I hope they update the Zulu sub-lineup soon.

Man… the Sprite is cool to look at… but I truly don't understand the market is for that watch. Clearly there's a strong market for it though.

The colors of the watch are cool… but it's a color scheme a first time buyer will probably get worn out by. And I think the reverse setup would probably drive an avid collector crazy.

The watch is awesome, and I could even handle the crown on the other side but it's the date window cyclops that kills it for me.

Why is the crown on the other side? I didn't catch that.

Brits. Drive on the wrong side of the road.

Apparently wear watches on the wrong wrist.

It's for lefthanders who wear watches on the right wrist.

I appreciate the recognition in this biased world. One of the last remaining minority classes that are discriminated against along with bald and/or short men.

So my "no gold in the Emirates" lasted about a month, turns out let they literally don't give a crap what we non Muslims do, and there are gold pieces everywhere to be had since the Muslims can't wear them.

I'm rolling heavy right now with my 7 watch line up. And the best thing is, you can just leave them out in your hotel room and never worry about them being stolen.

The reverse set up/left handed crown is what makes it so cool to me. Its different, which makes it the perfect piece for a collection. I've got a stainless sub I wear almost daily, but the Sprite would be a cool piece to bust out from time to time.

Different strokes.

I think it would be a cool watch to admire personally but like said above, the placement of the window cyclops is probably the thing that would make it hard for me to buy and think it won't annoy me personally. I'm actually left handed myself… and I can assure you my eyes work the exact same way as a right hander's eyes do and we read things the exact same way. There's simply not that great of a reason to put the window cyclops where they did on the dial.

My offer of $100 for that JLC still stands but not for much longer. Getting a little impatient with you.

Act now before I move on.
