If place it next to TT Bluesy, Bluesy looks better.

That's my opinion.

I was wondering how they did the bracelet adjustment with the side screw holes covered with stones. Now we know.

Oh dear, what's the price of a link if you need an extra one?!?!?!?!?!

Unbelievable, I hope the new owner doesn't have a large wrist, an extra link/s would set him back thousands $$$ .

Thanks for the great photos Jock, a rare creature and the new undisputed "King of Bling"

I thought this was one of your photoshops at first but OMG! This is the absolute pinnacle of excess in watches... 10 people will actually drop that much on this... beauty is in the eye of the beholder but you'd go blind staring at this bling monster for too long!
