The Legacy of Quincy Jones (20CD)I was crazy about bebop, rhythm and blues, Brazilian and Cuban rhythms. And I was branded by the teaching of Nadia Boulanger; I worshipped the different periods of Stravinsky All those influences forged my identity. Or rather: my identities.

“I was crazy about bebop, rhythm and blues, Brazilian and Cuban rhythms. And I was branded by the teaching of Nadia Boulanger; I worshipped the different periods of Stravinsky … All those influences forged my identity. Or rather: my ‘identities’.” — Quincy Jones Perhaps no other artist has had a wider influence on music, on other musicians, on Culture, as Quincy Jones. He has more Grammy nominations and awards than anyone on the planet, and when you look at his monumental body of work, it’s easy to understand why he’s touched such a broad audience of music lovers. He’s done it all. He’s even done stuff you know but didn’t know he’d done it. Paraphrasing Bono: ‘Q’ has hung with the Count and the Duke, was on board with the Chairman, and has been the consigliere to music royalty. Quincy took to heart Duke Ellington’s charge to “be the one to de-categorise American music.” His music reaches across all generations and styles, from jazz and bebop, to soundtracks, to pop, disco and funk, to hip-hop, R&B, fusion and rap. This is the largest, the most ambitious anthology ever curated, surveying his protean talents. Produced by Stéphane Lerouge, ‘THE LEGACY OF QUINCY JONES’ explores the quintessence of a genius: from Q’s arranging and scoring to his conducting and producing; and from his big band recordings through to the urban-infused Qwest albums. Including rare recordings, this comprehensive 20-CD boxed set, in a deluxe art-book format, traverses six decisive decades. The 44-page hardback artbook includes interviews with Quincy from 2016 and 2021, and testimonials from Toots Thielemans and Alexandre Desplat.Shipping Notes

Unusual, unique look for cheap.
In most ways, this is simply an inexpensive Chinese quartz watch. As a watch collector, it's simply not the kind of thing I would be interested in. But, it is unusual in good ways.
It's all stainless and the case is 39mm while the lug width is 20mm which is pretty normal for a dress watch. It's powered by a Japanese quartz movement giving three hands with day/date. As one can expect at this price, the crystal is mineral glass. The bracelet is a solid link type with a butterfly clasp. I really don't like butterfly clasps but that's just me, it works okay. It has 30m water resistance. Crown is push-pull. Pretty standard stuff.
Then, the uniqueness drops on you! The crystal is faceted on the outside and the light really plays on it, especially with the sunray blue dial behind that! The dial is a combination of Roman numerals in gold on the even numbers and faux diamonds at the odd hour positions. It rides the edge of gaudy without going over IMO. The bezel has scallops which also reflect light as it moves. The case is all polish. The bracelet is just as unique. It is a little loose - jingly jangly as some pretty famous brands are. The bracelet is a combination of stainless and gold tone. The individual links are very well articulated and one row of the inner sections of the bracelet actually scalloped with a curve upwards at the ends - the opposite of what you'd expect but somehow it works and the unique touches all come together.
I'm not saying this is a great watch for watch collectors. But, if you're looking for a cheap dress watch that won't look like anyone else's and still has decent specs this is worth a look!

Great watch, looks good
I was worried about the watch looking too bulky and thick. It looks just right on my wrist and I have a 7 inch wrist. 10/10 watch, looks epic and was just what I wanted. Not too thick, not too thin, fits my needs perfectly.

good watch, great price, mediocre band
Accurate? Great price? it's a Casio!
Not the best looker, but darn easy to read. This is a stepping stone to an "easy reader" watch, with clear numbers on a high contrast background. Easy to set, this model is a good choice for traveling back and forth across time zones.
The big drawback (and likely the reason I was able to buy this watch as a return) is the watchband, which has 3 faults. The hasp is old school and it can be hard to open and close except when it opens unexpectedly. The corners of the links are not rounded, so they can bite into your wrist. And adjusting the size of the band is a PITA. All in all, I'm on the lookout for a replacement band.
[I have absurdly large wrists, but still needed to remove two links. Use a super small bladed screwdriver on the band and a paperclip for the springbar at the hasp. Open the band at the hasp, find and press down on bits of spring steel until you can slide them out of the watchband, remove links, reassemble the band. I'm reasonably handy but took 10+ minutes for the task.]
