For Padi

Now I couldn’t help but noticing that our Padi loves the noble art of football very much. He has voiced this in gentle words a couple of times, even complaining that valuable and modest players like Beckham (who called this fine man a Ken doll? ) have to come by with very modest salaries. As a reward for this I would like to point him in the direction of the Kienzle football timer, an asset to any football loving man like our Padi. Cheers mate!

I've never heard of them before, but that's a pretty good looking watch

Nothing wrong with the memory! The brand Kienzle: German technology since 1822. The German company, founded in 1822 in the Black Forest, soon becomes synonym of quality and precision and therefore a representative of German technology.
For more than a 100 years Kienzle specialises on the production of clocks (alarm clocks, automotive clocks, wall clocks, style clocks, grandfather clocks, etc.) advancing to one of the leader companies in this sector. The product range now includes mainly wrist watches. Kienzle Italia has the exclusive right to distribute Kienzle products in Italy.
