Limited Time $86,000 Watch on Amazon Only


Recommended Posts

Some of you may have noticed an Amazon advertisement for watches, very expensive watches.  I just put the ad up taking a rare someone, who visited this site will actually buy one of these watches.  Of course now that I've looked at thes watched on Amazon the ad has been following me all over the WWW.

On another site I clicked the ad, because I never really looked at the information about the watches.  Curious I decided to read about the watches and learn why someone would pay so much for a watch particularly the one shown below, which costs $86,000.  I read the review and it made my night :-) I hope you enjoy it too.  Of course my affiliate code is applied (just in case).

5.0 out of 5 stars Just look at it!March 16, 2014
This review is from: Montegrappa Chaos Gold and Enamel Automatic Watch (Watch)
I'm a value shopper. I was looking for a watch that both looks nice and keeps time, but I was trying to stay under $100,000. I looked for weeks and was about to give up when I spotted this on Amazon! I got it for only $85,995! That left $14,005 in my budget for an extra strap and a pair of those tricky pins that hold the strap in place.
Things I love about this watch:
- The look. I love a good skull. I love a nice, scaly snake. Together, on a watch, on my arm?! Yeah, baby. I had to have it.
- Design. I've not seen a combination of colors and design work like this since the great Elvis on Black Velvet painting era of the 1970s. You simply can't find art work like this anywhere, unless you are willing to dig to the very bottom of the dentist office goody box.
- Celebrity endorsement. When I saw this on 67 year old Sylvester Stallone, his hair freshly darkened and makeup perfect, I thought - "That's me." Then, in the same photo, I realized the grinning Stallone was clutching the erect shaft of his pen (matches watch, $5,000). Given I'd saved so much purchasing the watch, I was able to toss my Bic.
- Features. Keeps time AND the date (always spot on!)
- Durability. The crown "protects against water ingress". You know if a company uses that many words for "waterproof", its gotta be the best.
- Origin. Made in Italy. Italy is a leader in manufacturing and technology - I buy all my computers, phones, etc from Italy.
- Materials/Value. Note its made with genuine enamel. Enamal - its not just for bathtubs anymore. This watch will hold its value - even during a global uprising of the "have-nots" against the "haves" with their "let them eat cake" grasp of reality and utter inability to see the value of all that is good and decent in the world... But I digress.
- Workmanship. PVD-coated back -- the same coating found on finer snack food bags.
- Automatic. That means it will save you money in the long run. I was paying $15 every two years replacing the battery on my old watch, that's $150 every twenty years, or $15,000 every 200 years. Over time, this watch will pay for itself!
- The ladies. Several have told me how "interesting" the watch is. One says it says a lot about me. Yesterday, one said, "You know, "classy" would be just "cly" without people like you!" Isn't that nice?!

Things I don't like:
- I get confused about what time it is mid-afternoon, unless it's the third of the month.
- No light. At first I was bummed, but as I've been sleeping with the light on so I can gaze at the watch during the night, it's not been a problem.
- Occasionally, I've raked the skin off my forehead wiping my brow with my wrist (not good for the gym!)

I hope this review helps! Good luck!

This one though!

As Count Dracula, I have had the opportunity to own many fine watches. I started wearing watches in the 1400's when they were not much more than portable, spring-driven clocks attached to the wrist by something that resembled a manacle. They were large and clumsy and would often get tangled up in my cape. As the decades and centuries passed, watchmaking technology improved dramatically. I have always liked to keep up on the latest in men's fashion, and I feel fortunate to be independently wealthy and so I have always been able to afford the best. I've sported Rolex and Cartier and Bvlgari and Piaget, but now "the best" has a new champion. I would remove this magnificent timepiece from my wrist only if it somehow stopped working, but since it is of the highest precision quality, I don't expect that day (or night) to come until around the year 2550. The snakes and lizards are awesome, but LOVE the skull! The only drawback is that it has a lot of crevices where graveyard soil can get stuck, but that's really my own fault for not placing a bread-bag over my arm when I retire to my coffin . FIVE STARS!!!!!
