That's fine.. could you now ban me please, I know I can just leave but prefer the kudos of having 'banned' under my name, the forum is full of dim americans with no sense of humour anyway.. Regards.

So by his own wishes he was banned.
Yeah, "dim, no sense of humour" pretty much sums up that guy's deleted post anyway. Thanks Peter

I could never wear it, but damn if I wouldn't respect the hell out of someone who can pull it off.

Personally I think it's great, as do the TRF members who own it.

Speaking of rockers, Steven Tyler (Aerosmith) owns one.
I was going to say that it looks like something Steven Tyler would wear.

My AD had an unworn one and I tried it on, it was very cool.
They made me a great deal and wanted to buy it so me and wifey could share it but she stopped me!

Not my thing but I don't hate it. If you can pull it off do it. I won't judge you if you don't judge me.

I would wear one. If I see one used for a reasonable amount I'll snatch one for sure!

Be Forewarned...!

If you ask to be banned you will be..

Nothing more to see here, Please move on....

Lastly, I think that Muzz is one of the few here to be able to pull it off anytime, anywhere.

I really like it as well. I'm sure it will be a very collectible watch in the future...

Do they open the coconut for you, or just give you a machete and a straw?

Those that can afford it as likely have many watches and want something unique, different, attention getter, this fits the bill.
While not for everyone, one thing is for sure, it's a looker.
Someone like Steven Tyler can certainly pull it off.
Muzz looks like with his tats, he too can pull it off.

Very well said. I've got one. It's loud. But fits the bill sometimes.

So I'm not even a year in as a member here, but I would say in my short time, every two months this watch comes up either in it's own thread or in another and this is how it goes every time...

-"This watch is so ugly, gross"

-"be careful what you say, practice tolerance and don't be mean"

-" 'so and so' rocks this watch and he's awesome"

- "this watch is so ugly"

- "don't be mean, you'll be banned"

- "close this thread, people are too mean"

- "and someone just got banned"

Maybe this watch model should just have it's own sticky. Clearly there's nothing else like it. However the conversation is pretty much always the same.

If the stones were all removed and replaced with standard Daytona pieces, I could stand it. Not as it is though.
My personal preference. If someone likes it, they should go get it.
