This watch looks nice, but I’m not so sure whether it is as good quality as the picture shown. Any one has ideas about it?

I actually own one of these. Purchased the "Pimpin' Ain't Easy" from Tokyo Flash in 2003...

I wish I were joking, but I'm completely serious. :oops: In hindsight, not a great purchase considering it ended up costing me much more than 100 dollars because of tariffs, shipping, etc...

At the time I felt it was "unique" and "interesting", but it is really mostly junk. I keep the watch because I purchased it with my first check from my first engineering co-op job.

Yes, which is why I deleted the first thread I saw about this. I was sure it was a spam post to draw attention to the URL that was slapped across the middle of the picture on the first post.

Fortunately the pic on this post doesn't show a URL so it can stay. But to be honest it looks like such a poor item (sorry Ian! :lol: ) that I'm pretty sure all the advertising in the World wouldn't increase sales much anyway!

Let's see some wrist shots, Ian! :wink: :lol:

I think I've given everyone enough ammunition around here for a while, no need to spur it on any more :wink:

What can I say, it was 7 years ago! I'd like to think my tastes have matured since then.
