    It does look intriguing, but far too garish for me. Maybe appealing for a teenager/youth.

    There's a shop in an outlet near me that sells all these fashion brands. I went in there once, amazing! £200/£300 for a load of awful £10 watches.

    Replace the words fashion brands for Swiss brands and you could add a zero on the end of all your numbers. What's worse, paying a couple of hundred pounds for a watch that costs a few quid to make, or paying thousands for one that costs a few hundred to make?

    There's a place for fashion brands, and they don't have a monopoly on 'awful'.

    I suppose you could put it in a stocking and smash it with a brick

    Maybe a stocking filler the way Paul Calf views a snooker ball as a sock filler?
