Hi All,

I have not been around for a very long time but I still love my Datora and enjoy regular complements about it.

I saw a watch for sale on the NZ equivalent of eBay and thought some of you might enjoy seeing it: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing ... =551589279

Note that the auction has expired without the watch being sold and won't be visible eventually, so I will past the text from it here and attach a couple of images for future reference.

It is for sale by a local pawn shop kind of business used to handling jewellery and watches so I assume it's real. I have no connection with the watch or its sale.

I am going to come right out and say I don't like it, but kudos to anyone who will follow their own sense of fashion to this extent I guess. :wowzers

It almost wouldn't even be that bad if they hadn't put that extra bezel on it.

"almost has to be seen to be believed"

I still don't believe it.
I just can not believe that anyone would go to such effort and expense to destroy a fine watch.

Gents Steel/14k Breitling For Bentley Motors watch, model bornato A25362 - Obviously could not stretch to the full 18kt gold

This STUNNER is a one of a kind!! - thank goodness

Custom Watch - as if Breitling would offer this as an official production watch.

The Delicate Craftsmanship And Work gone into the Watch is Truly Amazing its custom bezel to its custom strap showcases true Workmanship and the ability to make a watch into an unbelievable piece of jewellery! - yes truly unbelieveable; a Breitling that on viewing can make you physically sick!

This beauty features a huge 97.85cts of diamonds, with a stainless steel case and a custom 14k white gold strap. - don't hear many bracelets being described as a 'strap' but there you go.

almost has to be seen to be believed. - you're not kidding there either

Dont Miss Out on This you wont see anything like it ever!!!! - I would hope not!

PLEASE NOTE EXTRA LINKS CAN BE MADE IF WATCH DOES NOT FIT. - I truly truly hope it does not fit. Anyone.

Enjoy the photos and The absolute Beauty of the Watch. - Err - no.
