Yup. I saw that a few days ago and laughed.

The thing is....isn't Acura potentially pissing off the fraction of their clientele that own fancy watches or jewelry, etc?? Seems like kind of a risky move.

My exact thoughts after seeing this commercial. Luxury cars and fine watches often intrigue the same types of people - those with money.

I didn't see a single excuse being given for buying a luxury watch in that advert at all - just damn fine reasons, IMO! :wink:

To hell with the car. :lingsrock:
