I bought this watch after my previous timepiece, which was a Mayan-influenced solar calendar hewn into the side of a mountain, was accidentally destroyed during my efforts to construct a diamond-encrusted tunnel to the centre of the Earth. Unfortunately though, my servants were incapable of strapping the device to my wrist; I had to fire seven who weren't up to the task. As a compromise I have had it fashioned into the collar of my pet unicorn and have re-hired the septet to ensure the animal is always by my side, so everyone's happy.

Since buying this watch, my whole life has changed so much for the better. My ex-wife's divorce lawyers can't come after me for my money, as I now don't have any, and the Crown Prosecution Service have dropped their "Assault with a deadly weapon" charge as my plea of insanity now has a basis of fact. What unexpected benefits,as I only wanted it to fill a hole in the bottom of my budgies cage. Outstanding value for money.

A fairly decent timepiece. I felt it was slightly overpriced, but if, like me, you have 300K burning a hole in your pocket then it's worth a punt. As the item suggests, this is a Minute Repeater, as in it repeats minutes. I can confirm that it does this effectively.
The strap is made of crocodile, so you know it's good. The minute and hour hands are made out of the whiskers of snow-leopards, and the mechanism itself is powered by the teardrops of baby pandas. This all makes for good timekeeping.
So why not 5 stars? Mainly, it's the image on the face of the watch. It appears to be of a circus; you have the usual circus sights of dancing bears, clowns, ballerinas and a guy hitting a tiger with a stick, but there is no tight-rope walker. This is a glaring ommission.
In these challenging financial times, you could be forgiven for thinking it foolhardy to spend 300K on a watch, but if you are in need of a quality timepiece displaying a circus scene (and you can forgive the lack of tight rope walker) then you could do alot worse.
Also arrived in good 'time' - thanks Amazon!

These are a steal!
For a watch costing more than good taste dictates, and which is measurably less accurate than a $5.99 Casio digital watch, this must be something special.

Great time piece for ghosts
I was involved in a very bad trumpet accident in 1973 and went into a deep deep coma.
I eventually died in 1989 through 'complications' as the doctor said at the time. Read more

Didn't like it
Really cheap looking , I ended up taking it to oxfam . You'd be better getting a Casio or timex.
