Looks like they have the El Primero chrono movement in them. I remember when Zenith's weren't sold in this country and you could get them for a song in Europe. Then LVMH came along.

Those outside of the fashion industry call anyone who is "into fashion" or "wearing crazy clothing" as being a fashionista.

Those inside of the fashion industry view the term "fashionista" as being more equated to a label whore or someone who tries (well, some might actually live it) to portray a lifestyle of luxury/glamour/taste. Think the FIT student who runs around with a monogram Gucci tote, Dior aviators and runs around to the main designer boutiques to buy a tshirt or sneakers here and there. Their myspace or AIM name will probably have the word "couture" in it.

Please tell me that you wrote this to be ironic, fashionista boy.
