A buyers guide for $2000 watches

Feb
17

Today,rolex imitations, my Wednesday Watch article over at MotoringExposure has been published. After writing an article about $1000 watches, I thought it was time to stretch it up to $2000.-

Since $2000 opens a lot of horological doors,replica u boat watches, I narrowed the list of possible doors down by using the following restrictions (based on my own thoughts):

1. It should be a well-known/respected brand
2. A mechanical movement (Swiss/German origin)
3. No plastic parts on the outside (excludes Swatch)
4. Stainless steel case and a leather strap
5. Sapphire crystal
6. NEW,Incoming mail - Fratellowatches.com! (= excluding vintage) However, we don?��Ǩ�Ѣt care for list prices. Do you?

I selected three watches and the Nomos Club pictured above is one of them. Curious about the other two? Click here to read the article at MotoringExposure.

Watch Out – Broodje Aap! - Fratellowatches.com

Watch out for these artists! At www.luxury-wristwatches.com you’ll find a web site which looks and feels quite professional and which has prices for high-grade wrist watches which you can’t believe.

Indeed you can’t believe it, because these people are just trying to take your money without suplying a watch to you. At least not a real watch; they might send fakes, I’m not sure of that.

At first I tried to call them at the phone numbers indicated at the web site. Both numbers (one in Gibraltar and one in the US) only answer as a fax machine. No answering machine,watches replika, no person, just beeps.

Then there’s an address mentioned on the web site as well,rolex replica, where you could mail-address questions to. This address,wholesale leather bags, Rue des Billodes 34 in Le Locle, is the address of Zenith International. Of course they don’t know nothing about the whole web site or company.

At last I signed up at their web site and today I received the confirmation email. It was signed by Franz von Daniken, the Swiss State Secretary of the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs. I must admit they try to screw you the funny way.

By the way “Broodje Aap” is Dutch for Sandwich with Monkey meat, and is a general description for a fake story.
