Doc..........here is a link giving a brief history....Daniel Mink, I beleiev, was, at one time, a very high end "boutigue" watch in the $10,000+ range. On his death, the company was sold to the Montreux group http://www.internationalwatchclub.com/daniel-mink-watches/ My diver is of exceptional quality. Although I do own some high end (priced) watches like Rolex and Breitling, it takes a lot for me these days(because there is so much fun to be had in the $200 range) to spend over $300 on a watch. My Daniel Mink Diver is worth every cent of the $360 I paid for it!

Thanks guys. I saw the diver at TJMaxx for around $300 last weekend. Not being into Divers I wasn't sure if it was a deal or not. Sure was BIG and heavy. I also found two of the watches on eBay for $599 BIN which makes me think that they came from somewhere retail:shock:

Getting back onto the original topic. Never mind - I had written something rather lengthy about this but then it occurred to me - Why? Last edited on Sat Nov 11th, 2006 02:37 pm by Docrwm |
