Certainly not the caliber of brand I like to see partnered with BMW.

Anyways, stupid tie-in, beautiful interior.
Well, I never said that the watch was worth the money...just that it is still decent looking. For $5,000 I wouldn't even buy a rolex either though, simply because Rolex is synonimous (spelling?) with rich, snobby people. Plus, it's just too much bling, bling. What I'd rather buy is a Tag Heuer (spelling?) Chronograph or a Carl Bucherer (spelling?) watch. Those are simple beautiful watches without the bling bling...except may be Bucherer, there is some bling and its good bling!

Anyways, if this brand is overpriced. Why did BMW choose to go with them?
