    Re: Azimuth

    I enquired about the price of the Azimuth Mr Roboto watch at one point. That was the end of my enquiries :lol:

    (It was about 3 grand btw - which seemed a lot for "novelty" watch, as nice and well made as it was... )

    Re: Azimuth

    I think for £67 495 they could have something better than a wood screw for that central pivot thingy :lol:

    I dunno. I quite like it.

    Apparently this watch when viewed from one side looks like the front of a Lamborghini and from the other looks like the back of a Zonda. It's way out of my price league (surprise, surprise!) but I guess for those spending that kind of dosh, this is a "feature"...

    Re: Azimuth

    This one's on my wish list, but it may be there some time as it's not what you'd call value for money.

    Bloody cool though and a great box...

    Totally with you on that. They started with cheap B-Uhren, then went onto mid-range Richard Mille, and now they are in for top-end silly tourbies. It's getting weirder and weirder. I can't see them lasting very long.

    Re: Azimuth

    A watch-collecting friend of mine in the States swears by them. He says they are very popular among collectors in the US. If he is to be believed, I wouldn't write them off yet by a long shot.
