I have this watch, on a brown crocodile strap. Unfortunately, I couldn't take a good picture of it on my wrist.

I had to sell it.The watch cost £19,000 which is almost a years wage for me and I could not afford to keep it.When I bought it I was single and living rent free at home.I now have a son a wife and a house.

Accuracy is, to me, the most important aspect of a watch. All La Crosse watches are deadly accurate. They don't lose time. You can't say the same about a Rolex.
