+1 Personally, I think most German goods that make it to the US are on the same level, varying only by price, but not really by quality.

I just didn't think of them at the moment. Damasko make great watches. I like the bold, modern look of their watches and yet they aren't so bold that they require above average levels of self-confidence from the wearer. (For a faster website, you may want to try: http://www.damaskousa.com/index.asp)

They are one of the few really good values in manufacture pieces (DK12 or 13, I think is the in-house model I like). I also like that they offer a mix of watches, most of which share a similar look, but at price points that allow folks of vastly differing price tolerances to have that look. Rolex and Tudor used to be that way, but in more recent years, Rolex have differentiated the styling between the two brands.

I don't know if either of the websites you noted mention it, but Damasko also now produces their own metal bracelets. I don't think you'll see them mentioned yet on their website, but perhaps by now they have updated it....???

All the best.
