Ok we were tired of being cooped up with the snow so decided to go down to the local mall. I stopped in a Precision Time store and they had some neat hommage brand with look alikes for a couple of Bell and Ross and IWC models most were quartz and the name was S____ Italia . Any watch with center second hand the back end of the hand was shaped like a trident.  I can't for the life of me remember the whole name.

 

Anybody?

Thanks guys it wasn't worth the trouble to call the store. I'm sure they are not really Italian watches just using Italia as part of the name. They were big neat looking hommages to Bell and Ross , quartz chronos and non-chronos. Also a couple of automatics with Flieger look. All were about 44-52MM and around $300.00.

I'm not sure I understand...it is worth the time to ask us to psychically try and figure out the name of the watch you were looking at, but it's not worth the trouble to pick up the phone and call the store?

WOW!

So, what watch am I thinking about right now? subtlelaugh.gif

Not what I meant geez you guys are too literal sometimes. I was  hoping one of you guys might know what I was talking about. What the hell has this got to do with mind reading I triee to describe as best I could. I mean everyone here seems to know when a watch company president passes wind I thought you might be able to help. Sorry for living

Romano you have to admit that your post is kinda confusing given the amount of info given?....especially about some obscure watch company that makes quartz watches...not much to get so worked up over Buddy imo :)

..as far as farts in the wind there are 2 kind....the kind that is loud enough to be heard and draws great attention !.....and the silent one that just stinks like heck and those involved sheepishly bow their heads as if it never happened....this thread is the latter :D

You guys are killing me Ken C jumps all over me for no reason and I'm the bad guy. Come-on this is upposed to be people with common enjoyment of watches helping each other out. I'm not all worked up was just disappointed by the condescending attitude. Sorry if I wasn't posting up to your standard.

Those are pretty cool, especially the B&R look-alikes. I looked, but I can't find any reference to the brand at all on the 'net.  Alas, the closest Precision Time is several states away from me and they do not refernece this brand on their website either :( .

See Romano that wasn't so bad and we all learned a new watchbrand in the process that I doubt anyone would have guessed hand6.gif

...you should know that if you get your gonads busted around here it is a sign of affection as you are a part of the 3T family....and to have them personally busted by Ken is considered a huge WIS honor....you are officially "Nationwide' Buddy! :D:D:D

Like I say, I feel lucky, a little bruised up. I was wearing my new SMP, but the one they let me wear while another with all the proper paperwork arrived. I made the exchange that same evening...little do they know the rough day it had. ;)
