I like complicated watches, and when you combine that with Breguet numerals—the stuff of dreams. ...just as soon as that Powerball Ticket pays off. ...
I guess, Thierry was...
...ahead of time by designing the Xtremes. Wrong time, wrong brand but an interesting watch. Retail price was so much over the edge that 2nd marked was flooded by this models for very affordable prices. Fun fact: today it's really hard to get one of this ...
