In this episode we discussed watches that have been Frankensteined. Meaning modified to such an extent that they are don't look like the original piece it started out to be. Should you buy these or not, or the better questions would be, would you do this to your watch?

Alex and I went back to the 80's on this episode. From Swatch watches to the Piaget Polo 79 to all Gold Watches that made the 80's what they were.
