Indian watches

I love watches, and I love motorcycles. So it's interesting when a motorcycle brand and a respected watch maker collaborates to design a watch.

But with the styling and pricing of these watches I can say that Indian has definitely learned marketing from Harley.

$3,900 each. Yikes.

Not 100% sure what a new Scout runs I think it is in the $10,000.00 range. So this watch would be about 1/3 the cost of the bike. Not sure the people that buy a less expensive bike ware $3,900.00 watches. Seems to be a head scratchier.

No, it's brilliant! This will get those millenials that made millions on Facebook and Snapchat stock options, and bitcoin, to buy one of those watches. Then they'll need a Scout to go with their watch. But they won't actually ride the Scout, much too dangerous and they don't have a driver's license or even know how to drive a car let alone a manual shift of any kind. The Scouts will sit in a window and look cool.

The Millenial will say "what's a watch? You mean the clock on my phone?"
