I've gotta say, but I don't mind that all that much! Sure there's a few naff looking parts, but there's also some quite nice innovation in there too IMHO. I won't be buying one in a hurry (or slowly for that matter!), but I've seen a lot LOT worse. (Or maybe I'm just odd!) |

It looks like it's trying a bit too hard to me - over the top for the sake of it. However, it certainly doesn't make me ill and if it had a 'better' name on it I think that it would be viewed much more positively. |

As driver mentioned the crown idea and retracting pushers is kinda cool. But yeah... That's all I'm gonna say. |

I agree with JacksonStone on this one. It's utterly disgusting - reminiscent of those god awful Zenith Defy pieces from a few years back, but way way worse. I'd rather kiss a female Olympic weight lifter than put this on my wrist. |

I think it's less ugly than some of the red bezel offerings from Breitling. |

That watch is disgusting. I can't believe we're actually discussing that an Invicta might not be "that bad." |

*shudders* I agree... I half expected it to turn into a Dragon Ball Z episode when I saw that drawing... looks like the dragon balls combined to form a watch :S |
