Ken...where are you?

Must be out on the golf course or somewhere.  He's certainly not online or he would've weighed in on this topic long before this.

My opinion?  The watch is an abomination and an ill-conceived mess!

As for Jim Skelton, I happen think he is a genuine WIS and has taught himself a lot about watches (like most of us).  He’s a sales guy on TV and is given a script to use as a guide for his comments.  It’s his job to make every watch look good.  Tell you what, if I had to comment about a huge range of watches for hours on end, week after week, I’d make ten times the numbers of goofs that he makes.  I think the guy needs to be cut some slack.  I know I’m in the minority on this issue, but that’s my opinion nonetheless.
