I paid £1300 for my Titanium Citizen Satellite Wave, but to me it is

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 (sic) really ultimate. Get a Hoptroff.


£20000 for a radio controlled watch that loses its transmitter update once
you get 1000 km from Mainflingen?

What a load of cobblers - mine will still be accurate in Antarctica.


But no one needs accuracy in Antarctica.


I just bought one of these as well - can yours make a phone call from the South Pole?
