| Worth more?!! That's too funny. Custom one off or small batch pieces by recognized designers don't need hokey marketing tricks.
I like it too. Too bad it's not something that can be read easily. | |

| Open Heart watches can be really eye-catching ! This one IS real NICE !..The dial isn't too busy like many open heart watches can be. Plus the case and bezel has some cool indentations at the corners which is cool. The decoration on the front and back of the movement is just INCREDIBLE !!! You could look at that ALL day and appreciate it the whole time !..Thanks for showing us this ! ____________________________________ | |

WOW what a flick! Yep. It's a pretty cool little Principality (not that I'd buy the watch). We stopped there on a road trip through Europe. |
