QUOTE(kelvinftg @ Oct 30 2009, 06:05 PM) Can someone advise me on the prices of Graf Zeppelin watches? Also where to view them.. Edit: Oh... I looked back one page, tropicana city? The last time I went there so empty.. Any place else to see Graf Zeppelin watches? to get an idea of prices can check online.. stores prices usually higher. http://www.graf-zeppelin.ch/e/http://www.aviation-time.com/230/Junkers/Zeppelinfans of greman brands usually start off with Stowa, Nomos and move on to more expensive brands. few would go for Guinand watch ( http://www.guinand-watch.com/ ) This post has been edited by patryn33: Nov 2 2009, 06:52 AM

I dunno, I feel that Bell & Ross kinda represents that design. Something like how Frank Muller represents their unique rectangular watches with their fonts. Or how Rolex's Submariner only looks right with a Rolex logo. Some of Graf Zeppelin's models look like Glashutte too hehe, but they have some very unique and original ones. Seeing those Junkers with B&R designs is like seeing a shirt with a Nike logo but it says Adidas

Pam square pillow case look like a copy of the very early rolex just larger case. Submariner, so many similar copies... Tag, Longines etc all kinda have the same look. diver watch today pretty much have this design, so when I should go for a diver watch it got to be Submariner or u just wearing a homage (if have similar look)? thats a interesting analogy, logo is synonyms with brand today u can't break it apart. I think more like a ferrari car with proton logo.

I think more like a ferrari car with proton logo.  Yea, so many watches have that submariner look =p. Ferrari car with a proton logo eh? True... Since the engine of the car can be refered to as the movement of a watch. While the body of the car is the outlook and design of the watch. and the logo... hehe. I think you're far more correct! Btw... About Stowa watches. Is online purchase the only way? or are there any retailers who has them? Kinda out of my budget though... but im loving the Marine Original Romeon!! DAMNIT!!!!! I believe I found my watch. Or is it the other way around?
