Apart from the ‘drum’ watch of courseI guess most watches are ‘all the same’ - they tell the time …
How we doing on shelving, waterless wash, roof repair, garden mould spray?!And we begin with the stuff they cannot shift from the warehouse, watched by me and four dogs. The host would struggle on a decorating table in a leisure centre car park on a Sunday morning. The Pink Leaf Pattern Velvet Stool is at least a possible consideration at £19.99. But I think I would want at least £25.99 from them before I considered inflicting it upon my home.
Next…the manic staring doll with psychotic issues…pass….Let’s hope she isn’t being paid by the sale…Now nylon back combed toupee merkins..
Haha dont blame you. Bit of a turnaround this season you must be delighted, bar the weekend, but they made a game of itAs a Newcastle United fan, I will not click that link.
And it’s a round mechanism in a square case. There’s absolutely nothing rare about it.Square tourbillon is very unusual they say and one of the great watches from Swan & Edgar, took a year to develop and 6 months to build and is at a price which is unheard of.
Not in China they're not.
Here near enough same watch, just different hands and face design, which wouldn't effect the price, case & movement are exactly same.
Brain dead paying £990 on IW, folks with a brain save £600 buying from Ali, there it's £263.63, ok you may get stung with tax at customs but at most will add £75 to the Ali price.
I think it's Aesop that actually assemble them, some of the other Swan & Edgar tourbillons also copy Aesop designs.
I absolutely agree.As somebody who remembers the dying days of Edgar & Swan (they had still had display windows in the passages near the main circulating area at Dicadilly Pircus in the early 1980s) the store itself had little kudos then that I was ever aware of. Lumped in at the Arding & Hobbs and Army & Navy levels I guess. The name buyer/user must have felt it souned fancy, had the ‘posh’ Piccadilly siting connection, and that enough time had passed for most targeted buyers not to have a living connection with the reality of what the store was in its latter days of trading.
I find the whole business of the resurrection of the dead brands a deeply cynical and generally unwholesome business. The process to me seems essentially manipulative and wholly deceptive, with the real true history of what has happened and why never explained. Selling goods through illusion and fantasy is something that shouldn’t be allowed, and if we had a proper organisation policing these types of television advertising presentations, they wouldn’t allow them in the first place without a proper detailed explanation making it crystal clear that these borrowed names of companies long gone are simply just that, and have absolutely nothing to do whatsoever with the goods being sold now. Surely anybody with any serious financial resources and/or common sense wouldn’t go anywhere near these types of products. So to me the only people suffering essentially are those gullible fools paying out over inflated prices for cheap Chinese made watches that they think are not.
Good one that Prof made me chuckle out loud.I absolutely agree.
It can only be luck that they haven’t tried Grace Bros from ‘Are You Being Served’, yet.
Their Mrs Slocombe watch woukd no doubt be a best seller.
