Got to love those Texas timepieces !! How about some Texas bark presidents or the nugget specials Use to see a bunch of those back in the late 80's and early 90's when I was getting a lot of watches out of Texas.

I live in Oil Boom Central and remember as a youngster seeing Rolex in a particular shop. These were customs like you mention with oil derricks on the dials spewing Diamonds out the top. Equally hideous.... YUK Pretty awful Donald. Please don't do that to me so early in the morning next time.

I'm speechless! Probably one of the most aweful watch I have seen! BTW what is with that side clasp I will rather wear an Invitas than this masterpiece.
