Yet again, Ernesto is asking Leslie to pick her favorite model from eight (8) mainstream watch brands. These brands include Rolex, Tudor, Grand Seiko, Omega, IWC, Jaeger LeCoultre, Vacheron Constantin, and A Lange & Sohne. Some of these choices will surprise you, and even more surprising is that Leslie suggests to do a “Round 2”. Please tune in to listen to their choices and thought processes. Do you agree? What model would you choose from these watch brands?
