It's a difficult balancing act between doing YouTube and not selling out.

That's the one. I think it still has the distinction of being the only scientific calculator wristwatch. I like this King Arthur Round Table watch which is hundreds of thousands of dollars but that you can get a Chinese reproduction of for a few hundred dollars, but I wouldn't be confident enough to wear a fake openly.

+1 for chinese fakes - not only because they're cheap, but that they undermine the whole wealth-flaunt lifestyle by reproducing these overpriced objects with limited functional value.
