Wrist check, what you wearing

I'm sure you could take it to a horologist. They should be able to replace the face.

Thats why I made sure to buy a watch while I was there. It was actually made by a French company called Davis though.

I could, but the black circles on the face are actually painted on the inside of the glass, so it would take a little more effort than just cutting a piece of glass to size....might be expensive.

I got this watch when I was on vacation in Switzerland. I've been trying to find another one like it cuz I dropped it one time and cracked the face, but they aren't in production anymore and I can't find another anywhere. I like it so much that I still wear a lot even though the face is cracked.

That's pretty cool.

If you want to make an investment in a time piece, there are only a few that will actually retain their value for the sake of resale -- go ROLEX.

That's pretty cool.

Thanks! I like it cuz its got such a minimalistic design.

This Japanese website sells some really interesting LED watches. Most of them require instructions to learn how to read them:
