Marcello C. Hydrox Watch
I really like Marcello C. watches even though most of their watches are more or less "revisions" of the designs of other brands. I am usually less friendly when a brand doesn't offer up too much originality, but Marcello C. has a soft place on my heart for a few reasons. First, I like their quality. I have a few of their pieces and can say that despite what you think of the origin of their designs, they do sell nicely made watches which are a good value.Second, a Marcello C. watch was my very first mechanical acquisition.

It is amazing how much different the Daytona is in person, and on your wrist...pictures do not do it justice.Now what.the price of the watch is beyond reason, but then again, I'm realizing that Rolex owners, like me, are not exactly a very rational bunch. I want the watch, but need to find some sort of psychological reasoning that would justify the cost. Any suggestions????Saul
