A watch is not about telling time.

"It's about exposing the ignorance of others and making them realize that they are a disappointment to their parents and loved ones.
"

this review is MAD, just thought id share it with the other people like me who can't afford it so we are angry!

http://www.amazon.com/Zenith-ChronoMast ... r-mr-title

The Zenith ChronoMaster timepiece is Haute Horlogerie defined and proves that even an entry level watch like this can make you physically better than other people. Anyone in close proximity will immediately feel inferior -- even small children and some animals. Your lifelong dream of being accepted by the exclusive, hip, and highly admired watch connoisseur community is now within reach. It doesn't matter that a $10 quartz watch is far more accurate. A watch is not about telling time. It's about exposing the ignorance of others and making them realize that they are a disappointment to their parents and loved ones.

My personal experience with this watch leaves me with a feeling of regret. That somehow, I didn't spend enough money on it. Buying from Amazon saves you $62,700, but can you put a price tag on your dignity? You must always remember to tell your associates that you paid full price lest they think you a "fake" person. As far as the watch itself, it's gold, it's shiny, but it just sort of sits there on your wrist, ticking. Fortunately, I have my iPhone to tell me the time of day.

I tested the chronograph function by timing how long it took an elderly man to get up after falling down a flight of stairs, but I couldn't decipher what the dials meant. This is yet another function that is probably not meant to be used. From you moment you put it on, you realize that the band must have been extracted from some of the finest "1%" crocodiles in Africa and I'm sure none of them were harmed in any way. Overall, I highly recommend this timepiece, but only for people of privilege and inherited wealth. For anyone else to wear this would be an embarrassment to themselves and all around them.

Pros:
- The free shipping is a welcome concession in tough economic times.
- The moon phase and day/night complication keeps you up to date with the moon's phase and also lets you know when it's daytime and nighttime.
- Many have probably died in its creation.

Cons:
- There are watches out there that cost more still.
- Homeless people may mistake you for someone who is compassionate and harass you for change while you walk to your Bentley.
- Some monkeys may throw feces at it as they do not understand its refined aura of mystery and power.

Bought this watch after seeing such a great reduction. Really disappointed. I chose Free Delivery and it didn't come for over 3 weeks. The strap keeps on falling off and it is simply the most uncomfortable thing I have ever worn. However, some may like a more authentic watch, so I'd say as it is at the entry level, give it a go and if you don't like it just throw away. Hope this helps.

$102300 throw away watch :lol:

"- The moon phase and day/night complication keeps you up to date with the moon's phase and also lets you know when it's daytime and nighttime." this is well handy though!! I always get confused whether it is night time or day time.

AND I don't need one because I have a clock on my iPhone. Which is
digital. And correctly timed by the Internet.

Fucking mugs.

If I was rich enough to contemplate buying a piece of shit inaccurate
watch without realising it could buy me 40% of a property, I wouldn't
even be reading the fucking review, so the dumb fuck that wrote the
piece should be taken outside and shot for diluting the gene pool.
