Susan asks…
is this watch a good deal? (swiss legend)?
I have the opportunity to buy a swiss legend men’s gmt ss watch for $75. Are Swiss legends top of the line watches? Where do they compare to TAG and ROLEX?? Also amazon, as well as several other sites, have the watch for $200, so i’m beginning ot think its not really 6 or $700…. im trying to figure out if I would be buying a $200 watch or a $500 watch.

answers:
Out of interest, I just researched a bit.
And while I wouldn’t trust a penny into such an investment, it’s certainly save to say that this brand is not on the same level as a TAG Heuer or Rolex.
Why?
First, it’s completely unknown in switzerland. So…what does the “swiss” in their name stand for then?
Now let’s have a look at their website which is remarkably simplistic (some would say cheaply made)
- again, the contact page leads you to Florida. So the “swiss” image seems just to be a marketing thing for them.
- No mention of an origin: No place, no people behind it. In the top Brands, there is always someone standing in with his name for his craft.
- History: 25 years of experience? Now that’s an impressive short time. Don’t get me wrong, there are some nice companies out there that are younger than 100 years, but they give reverence where they got the knowledge from or make themselves a name through innovation like DeWitt.
-Distribution: Maybe the most obvious sign of quality. A top of line watch must be certified therefore every single watchmaker has got his line of distribution and doesn’t sell over the internet. Otherwise you could order your watch in china right away.
Now, to be fair, they mention at least their movements, which seem to come from the swatch company.
So, being comparable to swatches the prize of 75$ would probably not be too exaggerated – depending how they are assembled around the movement.

I like whirlpool microwaves with the crisp grill, you can make chippies crispy with less fat. Personally not a fan of stainless steel because it stains so easily and you have to keep using a special cleaning agent. I think you should change the cupboards, they look a bit tacky.
