Anyone here have a Georg Jensen, particuarly the Koppel chronograph?
I've been looking to get myself a nice watch for a bit and have been looking at an Omega De Ville co-axial chronograph but have also taken a shine to the GJ Koppel.

Now I know the reputation and prestige that Omega carries, but what are the Georg Jensen products like?

My wife has a passion for GJ jewellery that costs me a fortune.

The silver they produce is of great design but cost about three times the price of a 'normal' silver piece.

For example - un-named silver bangle £75, GJ piece £200+.

Would suspect that they are at the same thing with their watches.

Where's the heritage?
