I've had three Mondain watches in the last 15 years (I really like them) and I had to compare side by side to see the differences. They're there, but they're subtle, and even to someone who is very familiar with the design, they're not immediately apparent. So yeah, blatant rip. For folks pointing out the Braun parallels, it's important to remember that Braun never made an iPod. Apple transposed design cues from one long-since discontinued product to a different product in a different time. It was an inspired move and I applaud them for it. With this clock, they're transposing nothing, they're adding nothing, they're improving nothing. This is just unlicensed copying. It's a credit to their good taste, perhaps, but not their sense of ethics.
