An Insurance Provider's List Of The Top 20 Watches Of All Time
If you happen to stumble upon the website MoneySupermarketwatches-dealer you probably won't think it has anything to do with watches. It doesn't, acting as a sort of aggregator for insurance providers for its audience. However, one of their marketing people (Karl) is a pretty serious watch lover (and proud watches-dealer reader).
