The Dive Watch Connection

I'm loving this new rose gold Bremont "Kingsman" - though it's way out of my price range:
The movie looks like it's going to be fun, if formulaic:

Beautiful watch indeed. The red accents with the rose gold case look great.

So nice. How much ?

$20,285 for rose gold.

Wow. I'm out

It's a beautiful watch but at 20 large there are a few other options in precious metal. PP, Lange, Journe ...

do you get an in-house movement for 20 large?

Nope. But they make a bridge for it.

It's pretty. I like it.

Pretty and stupidly priced

A still from the trailer:


Apparently, the younger "Kingsmen" wear steel DLC versions.

PS - Initial buzz for the flick is off-the-charts good.

I was very disappointed by the preview. I was picturing more of a serious, new style James Bond/spy and the preview shows it to be extremely outlandish video game and comical.

I got that it's a farce, no?

I think you got that right.

Yup, I bet it sux.

Truly surprised.
The wife and I saw a movie last month and saw the preview, I told her I was upset after watching it because I was so psyched about the idea of it being bond/borne and British. I truly thought video game as soon as it finished.

It's definitely gonna be over the top, so if you're looking for sophisticated and urbane, it probably won't be up your alley.

That said, I've never seen such a uniformly positive showing on Rotten Tomatoes. Ever. As such, I'm all in, though it's worth noting that I'll be going to the NYC premiere with Bremont, so my wallet stays in my pocket.

Now, what watch to wear...

That's impressive.

#1: Baller
#2: 94010 of course!

I was thinking of something along the lines of Roger Smith.

Oh, wait... I'm not a billionaire. Damn.

Nothing says "best of ( sort of, almost...) British" like Roger Smith.

I'm interested in the movie, the watch not so much..Rather have the Victory out of the newer LE's..
