And it's *six* *hundred* *pounds*.

900 quid, if you go for the top of the range model.

A thousand quid for a phern that's only marginally better than last
year's model. And omits the headphone jack.

Just goes to prove the adage: "a fool and his money are soon parted."


Nah a only fool would spend more than 50 quid on a watch.


I paid £1300 for my Titanium Citizen Satellite Wave, but to me it is the
ultimate watch as it gets its time from GPS anywhere in the world.

Some mugs will drop £5000 on a Rolex and they don't even show the real
time.


Neither of those are really ultimate. Get a Hoptroff.
