Good point. I'd have either, They'd be on eBay within 24hrs and then I'd buy something useful, like 5 motorbikes and a car.

Damn! I'd never thought about that. Is the offer still on?

Just had the vaccine jab, not certain my arm muscle would be able to lift the arm with either of them attached.
(Probably Hublot but in truth I don't have a particular horse in this race)

Just some thoughts:

Wristwatches and Morgans have more in common than you might think at first glance. Both are actually unnecessary, but both bring joy to the owner when they are used. They are overpriced and can hardly compete with cheaper up to date products.
They are technical developments that have fallen out of time, but represent high values for the initiated. For both it is true that there are better solutions today, but that the traditional values are probably to be valued more highly than with the more modern products that are commonly used.

Looking online at the Hublot prices, they certainly cost the same (as my old girl). Be hard pushed to get a weeks shopping in the Hublot though, and if it broke I couldn't fix it on my drive smile smile smile

Wristwatches and Morgans - It goes further than that.

I have a JeagerLC and put it in for a service as it was a few years on. The bill was a lot more than the last service on the Coupe. Mind you it doesn't leak which is an upside.
Worse still the daily drive (Apple watch) does more, costs less and does not need to be covered or protected in rough places!
