In Response To: Re: Yes, a novelty watch.... ()

I saw it, although I thought it was a day/date not a sub, but in any case that was probably a special private order rather than a publically available limited run like the 007LE.

Many companies make logoized versions of their products for specific corporate customers. I was given a Mont Blanc Pen and Pencil set with the logo of the company I work for on it. I don't care for the concept at all, but such branding is seen as important and is used for team building and as a form of advertising, at least here in the States.

Unlike the 007LE, tou generally can not buy these branded products unless you work for the company for which they were created, and they are not advertised for sale.
