I think you are off base and a bit out of line...

Do you have a Doxa or have you handled one?

I think you might be surprised at how low cost wold be on a number of "expensive" watches.

I cannot question the bild aality of my Doxas... apparently you can...

Another hater!!


Pax....."off base and out of line"?.......this is all personal opinion.  I have never held one and may have the same opinion of "cheaply" built that Donald has after reading all the stuff written lately.  I am of the belief (without proof, of course - just some knowledge of behavior) that at least some of what John V said was true.  As to looks....again, it's all personal opinion....I, for example, do not like the looks of skeleton watches.  Others are crazy about them.  Does that make me a "hater"?

Bottom line....I luv the DOXA look...........I question the dollar value in line with other watches...........it is a reasonable opinion to have as is DonaldF's opinion, as it is a reasonable opinion and passion you have to luv them.

Your opinion may be that Rolex is a great value for the money...........mine is that it is not (and yes, I currently own 2 and have owned others).  You may luv Breitling..........I think they are (mostly) very cluttered looking and over priced. (and, yes, I currently own one).  So, if we all had the same opinions on watches, we would all have the same watch.
