wall clock wrist watches ?
My wife and young son are in Arizona attending some baseball Spring training games. She mentioned to me that when they arrive at the stadium, many of the ball players are wearing enormous colorful watches.
You guys who know the various watch brands, please list a few brand names and or models so I can find some photos of these trendy watches. Since most of the players are multi millionaires, I assuming it is expensive brands these guys are wearing. Any info appreciated. |

And very over priced for what they are and IMHO most look cheap and tacky.
