While I was in Las Vegas at the JCK Jewelry Show, I checked out the Ducati watches from Binda and fell in love. I'm a sucker for anything Ducati anyway but really integrate the Ducati aesthetic very well, sticking to a red, white, black and gray palette and integrating a rugged motorcycle-ready look.
The watch at left is from the Ducati One Collection and has a Swiss made ETA 2824 automatic movement and a 42mm case in black titanium. The dial is reminiscent of a motorcycle wheel while the texture of the rubber strap looks like a tire tread. It sells for $1,175.
The watch on the right is from the Desmo Collection. It as a Swiss made Ronda 5030 quartz chronograph and the 44mm case is stainless steel.The water-resistant watch has a case back with eight screws and stainless steel screws on the bezel with a stainless steel and red screw crown. It sells for $1,095.

I agree! I love them so much I decided to carry them at my own store. We just launched them online and they are selling unbelievably. Take a look: http://www.marissacollections.com/marissa/dept.asp?s_id=0&dept_id=6603
My personal two favorite are CW0004 from the "One" collection, because it has the rose stainless steel bezel and the price is under $1,000. http://www.marissacollections.com/marissa/product.asp?s_id=0&pf_id=PAPFAAOFBEFDOLGE
My second favorite is the super deluxe CW0017 from the Desmo collection. It is an automatic chronograph made out of black steel, carbon fiber and rubber and truly incorporates Ducati's avant-garde design. http://www.marissacollections.com/marissa/product.asp?s_id=0&pf_id=PAPFAAMJAJFOHMGF
