If the "Decepticons" was put around the watch like the Autobot words are, I would have considered purchasing one.

It is. (?)

The Autobot letters have their bottom edge facing the watchface.

The Decepticon letters have their sides facing the watchface, except for the "T" at 6 o'clock.

I'm pretty sure that's what he's talking about.

Where are they available and how much do they want for them? I bet they're expensive...

I got one of the Decepticon watches for christmas last year, or a limited edition one exactly like it. Mine has a 2007 copyright and is 602 of 1000. I think it cost around $80, but as it was a gift and possibly not from the same line, I'm not entirely sure if that's accurate for these

Regardless, the watch is very nice. Sleek art deco-y look. It's gotten compliments from 40+ yr olds at poker tourneys. I'm not crazy about the lettering, esp. the second "c" but i can't imagine wanting any other watch now

I just wish Takara would release Frenzy and Rumble nipple clamps.

those watches are from the release of the first movie in 2007. they were actually posted on these boards back then too...

the autobot/decepticon were 500 each, sold on amazon/stylinonline/80stees
autobot one sold out.
the pepsi le was 1000 pieces. given to pepsico, who in turn used them to get shelf space for mtndew (at the time, cross-promo with TF) by bribing stores and giving them these watches. also given to Pepsico employees, but never sold at retail.

all the others are kids watches.

i have a few pepsi LE, and autobots ... and lots of the kids ones ... i can put them on ebay if anyone is that interested...
