These guys are definitely here to stay (so long as they chill out a bit with the flying...).

I like their alt1c and mbII. But pricing on their new watches seems well high.
Then again, I'm no celebrity (either in RL or on the internets) so maybe I'm just not their target market. :-)

Cool watches for sure. Nice to see WSJ coverage, but Michael comes across with that blue-blood arrogance I just can't stand.....

Who, Pearson? He's as laid back and cool a guy as you could ever hope to meet. :scratch:

PS - Oh, you're referring to the author of the article... Yeah, he seems like a DB.

Another nod to Mike Pearson for being an open, standup guy. He may come across as a bit overly enthusiastic at times, but look at his job. He's basically a one-man road show and promo department for all of North America. He's done we'll, too. I knew the young man who held the job before Mike, and while he was a good guy there is just no comparison in terms of effectiveness. Mike does a great job, IMO.

As a SAR guy in my youth I've seen a few plane crashes. None were survivable. The brothers are certainly fortunate in that respect. I hope Giles is recovering well.

Just for the record, I'm sure Pearson is a great guy, I was referring to the WSJ "watch reporter" ;)

Love the Brand since I saw the Supermarine.. to me, that is their greatest design...it has no flaws.. hope they grow and come out with better options..

I like the Super Marine, but the rest do not do a lot for me. I think they have a lot of BS around the brand as well.
Still like the Super Marine though, tried a friends on awhile back when I was in London, and really nice fit too
