I’m sure that 37mm thick must be a typo?

not thick like =, thick like | |. or, they are just basically saying its 37mm wide.

1900 Euros?! On what planet is that affordable for a watch?

Amazing! Can’t wait till colour e-paper books are in production – drool…

When you have nothing, you have to buy SOF gold!
