Sorry to state it so bluntly... but the Bathys models look like a $100 watch... nothing more... ok the Benthic maybe $125 since it does have a bezel...... Those folks paying $895 or $1200 for a Bathys... evidently have way more money than sense. Just my 2 cents.

to each his own; while many may agree with this, beauty is always in the eye of the beholder cat28.gif Crue4 wrote: Sorry to state it so bluntly... but the Bathys models look like a $100 watch... nothing more... ok the Benthic maybe $125 since it does have a bezel......

I'm going to have to agree with both of you on that one. Beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder, but I have always thought the Bathys folks have a bit less watch on their hands than they think they do.

Hey, I said to myself this morning, "What the Hell, let me post the black PVD one last time before I make it my PVD Beater." Just got an offer: $450 for an $895 watch still on warranty. Boy, the secondary market is going to jump now that Bathys is an exclusive watch.

I certainly hope they haven't done anything drastic in their depressive funk!! It seems pretty clear our members have a clear cut opinion on this debacle (in my mind), and strong opinions on the merchandise. Gotta love 3T!!
