so i have been to alot of watch forums and from time to time i will see threads about people talking about grails.

i thought we would change the pace here and start a thread of pieces that you would absolutely never want to own. ok guys lets see the pieces that you guys think are horrible it can be from any brand and it can be of any dollar amount.

for me i would never ever want to own the Rolex leopard print Gay-tona. :twisted:

Given that, I'd say pretty much anything and everything by Invicta. I honestly feel that if I were to wear one of those watches, I'd be sending out a message that, were I horny enough, I'd probably do my cousin.

A Steinhart, because they just copy everyone else's hard work. I'd also never a homage of any kind. (why do I get the feeling that this thread will go in a bad direction) Nice Job Adrian!

Royal Oak offshore - I don't get the interest in this watch, I think it's so ugly.
Most white-dialed watches.
Anything by Chronoswiss.

Well ya'll know the old saying, "Never say Never", but for me watches that don't appeal to me and I would put in this category would be:

Most any watch with diamond bezels and or precious jewels anywhere on them
Most square watches
Hublot because of they are over-priced with non in-house movements
Watches that are hard to read at a glance
For sure not any tribute, homage, or fake watches



There may be more, but can't think of them at the moment.

Depends on your definition of expensive, but I actually think a number of Breitlings fit this description - more now than in the past, unfortunately.
