Not something I would wear, especially not for almost 20k. I do however appreciate the craftsmanship that went into making not just the case but the movement as well. That is impressive wow...

G&S have been making these for several years with many different designs. Some of them are a little more 'out there' in terms of look and I have considered a couple in the past but the price new for what they are is crazy and they don't come up much resale.

I guess it's safe to say that not to many people are making a impulse buy on those. After seeing them I thought they would be fairly easy to find one second hand. If you do do they hold their value well?

No - like so many small brands with high prices, street price drops through the floor.

I think that looks amazing. I would have no problem dropping the funds to own one;
Something different for sure.

I've seen these before myself, but I didn't know they made the movements too. I'd definitely consider one in my collection was large enough to cover all the more "mainstream" pieces I woudl like, but I'm not there yet!

yeah, not really my cup of tea.

side note. you know what i cant stand? when these blogs are supposed to be giving a review with "decent" pictures and there are finger prints all over the case? the one with the case back is horrible. telling me he cant take the time to wipe it first before using his dslr camera?

ok rant over. :)
