    The Kundalini!

    http://www.valenciatimecenter.com/index.php?cPath=180

    My Choice! Extremely comfortable in polished titanium..
    48mm too!
    Does more than you need it to :)
    $895
    Some info from the Yes Watch site

    --------------------------------------
    The Kundalini accurately calculates solar and lunar times based on complex astronomical algorithms and couples them with the efficiency of a quartz movement. It has the same heart and brain as all the YES watches, but features a bezel that invites you to break down the conditioning and set your own agenda. Try turning the digital time off and you got the perfect "vacation" watch, even though it is savvy enough to count down the next shuttle launch. It reconnects with those ancient cycles of the sun and the moon, yet is modern enough to adjust for Daylight Saving Time for the next century. The unique display of time offers a wide range of practical applications.

    The truth is, if you are looking for a serious time keeper, no watch offers such a broad universe of time as the YES Kundalini. We hope you will try it.

    Spread the word.

    I just got a Laco factory incentive :)

    Sale ends August 9th or until the model is sold out.

    http://www.valenciatimecenter.com/index.php?cPath=91

    Must be purchased through our website, ie "add to cart"
    I have pretty good stock on most of them, I do sell them well.
    I was offered an incentive that I am forwarding to our customers.
    It's a pretty good time to buy one if you wanted one.

    Prices are $299-$499

    I bought a Laco Flieger Automatic about a month ago, It had a few problems clearing customs but Chris was incredibly helpful, just like he was in the rest of the process. I truely cannot praise Chris highly enough. I only got the watch about a week or so but I love it, its understatedly cool, light and comfortable.
    The only downside is that I now find myself craving another Laco ... I wonder if this time I can get it out of customs in less than 23 days ...

    Just came back from vacation in Italy and my wife gave me a locman stealth watch as a present. I like the fact it says Italy on it, ties in nicely with the Ferrari :) . Locman's are pretty popular in italy but don't seem to have much US distribution.

    Pretty cheap 195Euro list price, it looks NICE. Big face, very thin and light, carbon fiber pattern dial, titanium case, quartz obviously. I got the blue model, but there are lots of colors/models to choose from:

    Rumor is Muhle Glashutte and Ball will be sharing a distributor. This means higher prices (than direct distribution). Any plans to carry?
