Monsters.
Or should that be monstrosities.
Jacob & Co Watches note I use the word watches, very very loosely indeed £9000 retail, for a ETA quartz, and not even there top grade quartz movements some on page 2 retail for £11500 but you get 5 quartz movements WOW http://www.blitzwatches.co.uk/produc...&sex=0&type=32 Many of the rappers and so called celebrities here in U.K and U.S have fallen in love with this brand. I think that kind of says all you need to hear.IMHO looks like someone barfed over the dials,and what about the prices,still to the chosen ones impeccable taste I don't think. Opinions Please Blink Blink.

Those things have been around for a while. But at $9K for a novelty toy, sheesh.

I've always found Jacob & Co. watches to be very ugly and distasteful, apart from being ridiculously expensive.
I think David Beckham owns one, but what those celebrities see in such POSs, I'll never understand!! Just goes to show that where there's money, there's not necessarily brains!!

Those things make me want to projectile vomit out of my eyeballs. Who the heck is gonna pay that much for a quartz whatch? Especially when it's that ugly.

I think it is FUGLY, but c'mon JJ, to each his own. It doesn't make them "brainless" if that is what they choose. Why the hell do we spend so much on these watches? Because we can and we like them? Sounds like a reason for a person to buy one of those.
