    I quite like the dial but not in that case.

    Those spring things look ridiculous as does the crown. :lol:

    Whoever wants to buy a watch like this obviously wants to stand out from the crowd and look different.

    Maybe the spring looking things are there to absorb lightning or something??

    Sooo so ugly :lol:

    :shock: Utterly revolting. Looks as if it was designed by a 9 year old (and one with shocking taste at that)

    Although there are only two of us currently employed in such a role in this galaxy, my counterpart, Dwa*x''L (Big Dave) Se'et*chzad from Epsilon Eridani is also interested in one, (at least I expect he is, but the link I emailed him could take around 10 years to reach him).

    People are generally indifferent to the kinds of stresses and strains we testers put our wrists through, and I am delighted that a watch manufacturer has finally taken note.

    So from me and (probably) Big Dave, a heartfelt thankyou. This watch definitely has a market potential of two people, only one of whom inhabits planet Earth and is of questionable sanity.



    Big Dave, ten years ago.
    So clever my foot fell off.

    I have something like that on my car - was it designed by Bilstein or Boge :wink: .

    I suggest you advise them that they need to try a bit harder - alternatively to target braile users.

    Failing that suggst they should try the VinageRolexForum - they could do with a laugh :D

    Re: And they STILL keep asking me to sell these

    For the love of puppys, why would a company make a watch like that.

    When you go out on a Friday night and you see the real fat chick in the short tight skirt, with her mate, everyone in the pub thinks she looks bad, but before she went out she turned to her friend and said "do I look alright? " and her friend said "magic chick"

    Do think a mate of designer looked at this watch and said "looks great i'd buy one"?
