February 27. No. 2

After something like 4 or 5 years, my $30 Chinatown "Rolex" finally broke.  It was still technically running, but the knob to change the time/date broke... and as tomorrow is the 28th, and the last day of the month, I wouldn't have been able to change the date forward to March 1... and for my overly anal ass (no pun intended) - that was just unacceptable.  Now a definite fan of faux designer timepieces, I decided, after failing to find a new watch I didn't hate anywhere local, to hit up ebay.  Score.

Here is the $5600.00 watch I've been coveting since it's release last year:

And here is the one I bought on ebay, shipped FREE from China, for $18.99:

Alright.  SO it looks a little dumpier... but at a savings of $5581.01, I'm completely willing to live with dumpier.
