A Gallardo is not about posing! It's all about the sound of that glorious engine and the technical expertise that allows you to transfer all of it's power to the road! Anyway, when you're driving a Gallardo nobody can see you anyway, so how can you be a poseur?

p.s. Photoshop, still waiting on those photos of your Lambo! :)

car has been parked up for the last month in the garage (since the weather turned) and needs a good clean. I would drive it over the winter but i dont like waiting 1/2 hour for it to warm up every morning before i can drive it.

I'll get it cleaned and post some pics of it over the weekend.

The basic idea of a Chrono with 24hr time disc for world time zones along with a leather strap as in the OP is similar to one I have, the basic idea is fine it's just that the D+G just doesn't seem to come together properly ( before we look at movements etc )

how it should be done ;)

Fashions come and go. £500-800 is pretty hefty for something that's going to devalue at that kind of rate. I think even if I did like that watch, it would lose its 'wow' difference factor to me after a year or so of wearing it.
If you like the watch and can afford to splash away the money on something you might only wear for a few months then by all means go for it.

im only going to wear it a few times a month with certain outfits. I generally use my mobile phone to tell the time.

No idea as i've never owned any type of watch before. But i assume they will be mid-range'ish as they are only fashion watches where as Brietlieg and the like specialise in watches so they quality will be top notch

Do that then, but don't expect anyone to like it.

fash·ion (făsh'ən) pronunciation
n.

1. The prevailing style or custom, as in dress or behavior: out of fashion.
2. Something, such as a garment, that is in the current mode: a swimsuit that is the latest fashion.
3. The style characteristic of the social elite: a man of fashion.

For something to be fashionable the majority should like it, it should be - or become - more mainstream, it should be identifiable by the proles.

Yours looks tacky and would only have been fashionable in the 80's and early 90's.

Basic stuff. Lower range but with a name on that allows them to charge more for it.
