Bausele Australian Surf Watch
Bausele’s brand slogan is “Australian Soul – Swiss Made.” It should probably be changed to “Australian Soil – Swiss Made.” Why? See that rather obviously too-large crown?

You can order your Bausele watch with a crown filled with Australian red sand, surf sand, or coal. Coal? Why coal? Doesn’t the old Christmas myth about gifts with coal in them mean that person getting them has been bad? And not bad in an impressive way. There is probably some manner of explanation on the Bausele website – maybe you can find it in the “Aussie Soul” section.
