Teeny, tiny, parts, incredible precision, all hand assembly, precious
metals, and, most important, because there are people who will pay for a
watch what others pay for a year of Harvard, even though the watch will not

though - as long as you don't ever bang your wrist against that
Bimmer/Beemer door). :-)
