I took a stroll through Interlaken earlier today. It was a real treat to see all of the big name watches in the flesh.

You can spend 300,000GBP on a watch that looks like it came from Argos.
There are some genuinely stunning and innovative watches on the market today even if they are in the £200k+ bracket. Some of the movements on display were simply jizz storms.
