They were given to some gold medal athletes at the Olympics.

So, what you're saying is all I have to do is become the best in the world at some olympic sport & I might be able to score me one? I better bust out the Chuck Norris Total Fitness Gym & get to work!

That watch is amazing!!! How much did you pay ? You must get a bicep workout from wearing that thing. The normal blades are already heavy, I cant imagine that thing.

Congrats on the watch! I know a colector that had one, he sold it to a friend of his for $2000. (he had it given to him by a rep back when he sold Oakley) He told me his friend that bought it thought it was a steal being as the gold time bomb is $25000

i'm not quite sure what it is, cause i've never had a gold watch b4..............


is it 18k gold or 24k??? who knows...........



it doesn't "feel" heavy at all.

Well depending on how it was crafted it could be light weight.

I was suggesting take the back of the watch off and see if the base metal is unplated on the other side or inside of the case or if you can find a metal stamp (base metal stainless or some k value of gold).

I doubt its real gold. Like the polished gold Wardens arent real gold.
