    Sometimes our ongoing inventiveness, the beauty we are capable of creating, astounds me.

    Ok it's also impractical, effectively useless; and an obscene price.
    Who else would love to own one?

      I recognized it as VC&A. That's probably because I'm obsessed with VC&A and know that site and the Cartier site almost by memory. I pretty much know when they add or take away products or change their prices.

      That's a beautiful watch. It's not one I'd personally like to have but there isn't anything VC&A makes that isn't the best quality. Take a look at their site and see if you can find their series of mechanical objects with different functions. You'd probably enjoy those.

          Daniel, man with as expensive taste as me, I've found you a London pad to complement your small country Georgian estate; possibly the most expensive place I've seen

          PS.
          Don't you love the way they converted the £175mil into dollars exactly 😁

            Andy, thank you.

            I love it especially the views.

            I'd better inquire soon before the exchange rate changes!

              Carry on. Just wandering through. A bit expensive for me.

                Chas, πŸ˜„
                There's not one place on the Sotherbys site I could afford.

                Some gorgeous properties like this...

                  I'd like to reiterate something I said in my gems and jewelry thread.

                  Do you see Andy's watch?

                  I told you pink is the color of gold typically used in men's watches!

                    Andy, stunning. Wow.

                    Having lived on an idyllic, isolated island, I've found that the only practical downside is access to healthcare.

                    There were plenty of situations where a person in HI would have to fly to Honolulu to see a specialist or have an operation.

                    Although it you had that kind of money, I guess you'd be able to rent a private jet at the drop of a hat and it wouldn't be an issue.
