Just came across this and thought it might be of some interest to you:-

Would be better without the red around the star

[chris333]

The star on the red background is the logo of the M-B Club. The watch was produced to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the club, rather than anything to do with M-B itself.

[Barry Ashcroft]

Ah that explains it

[P.Nott]

I'm very pleased with mine.

I've often pondered buying one but it's just the whole "Subaru jacket" logo thing I dislike. Even if it's Mercedes I feel it's a bit, well, tacky.

No offence meant to the mugs that have bought one mind.

I'm very pleased with mine too

Less pleased that there's 30% off less than two months after I got it though!

That's just adding insult to injury!

If you've had it less than 60 days there's a no quibble return policy. Return I and order a new one

Thanks for that good idea, I took a look and unfortunately the watch has to be unworn

[Barry Ashcroft]

Order a new one now then when it arrives return it under your old receipt for a refund. Simples

You got one as well, Ari?

[Ari]

No, but I'll confess to being a little tempted. I love my Merc and I'm into watches so...

But as has been said, it just feels a tad Subaru anorak to have your car logo on your wrist watch.

No offence etc.

actually i completely agree! I would never normally do it, but a mate of mine has the same basic watch but the normal non MB club edition, and I really liked it. I was going to get one the same, but theres a couple of details like the markings, second hand and strap that I preferred on the MB one, so I went for that.

The little red star is quite subtle, hardly noticable in fact! .......

[Ari]

It is quite a cool looking watch. Looks a little like a Sinn.

If you wore one to BT&P everyone would point. Not in a good way either.

they sound like a crowd to avoid then.

Why? Are they a bit "special"?

They're not called the "big watch brigade" for nuffink.

Yes. They are special.
