So - you like this watch but at $35k price?

Ling,

Have you valued this Opus 8 at $35k? 

Is that how much it looks like it's worth to you?

This is important because it values the design and novelty movement at 10% of the asking price.

All the dealers who have to take on inventory are interested in target customer feedback; and you spend 50% of your considerable disposable income on watches.  So your feedback is very important for your region. 

Regards, MTF
