Said Nephew finally received his new ML watch today and he seemed pleased enough with it. Later his Mum sort of found-out how much it likely cost and gave me a mild ticking-off, which I probably deserved. It may be 'only' entry-level luxury to many of us lot jaded on 10K+ Omegas and the like, but sometimes it's as well to remember that around 1K is a lot of money in context to an item that typically is displayed in the £30-£200 range in the window of a high-street chain jewelers.
