The trio then takes a look at the new Omega Speedmaster Meteorite Moonphase watches. There is some playful banter and some legit debate. Ripley is triple-wristing, and he shows of his Casio watch ring, a sight not to be missed. Next up, they team discusses the latest from Vacheron Constantin, priced at a mere 32k.
