Doing a bit of research on these high-priced watches reveals that many of these companies, such as Jacot, Louis Bolle, Louis Richard, Bernoulli, Rousseau and others all have the exact same address -- Suite 100 -- Carrollton, Texas. Also, most of these wayches use what is termed a TY606 movement, which I believe is made in the Orient. This is not to say that the quality is poor. If you check their websites, it is amusing to see that much of the copy is identical from site to site. They mention that they use "Keystoning" in their pricing, and I think that if you divide their "retail prices" by their Keystone factor of four, you will come close to a believable retail price. My suggestion is to pay somewhere in the $40-$80 range and enjoy your purchase! By the way, I did receive a defective item from uBid, however they were very quick and eager to remedy the situation, and refunded my money as well as paying for the return shipping.
