WTF? Do they plan on filling the pegs at
Toys R Us? Hanging them in bunches at Walgreens? Is this a joke?

I laughed so hard. This sums up the brand perfectly. "SWISS PARTS CHRONOGRAPH" is the cherry on top. I guess a Swiss fellow sneezed on the watch at some point during manufacture, so you have the honour of wearing a watch containing some of his germs. A deceitful CEO and company.

I'm pretty sure that's from Walmart - I saw the picture on Watchlords, I believe.

Companies often make cheaper versions of their products (including changing the packaging) so an item can be sold at discount stores. Often cheaper materials are used too.
