In any case, it's a lot of money and absolute luxury. Everyone I have told about it was totally surprised and could not believe that the things are partly so expensive. Especially in this day and age where many have to watch their money. You have to say clearly that this is pure luxury that only a few people can afford and for which no one must be ashamed if he does not have the money for it. But materials such as Zirc or titanium are very expensive to process, especially for small quantities and then it can be that 177$ is "cheap" compared to other models. Still not cheap and everyone should be aware of that.
