I’d love that watch just a bit simplified and without the collaboration. Lose the collab colors, logo and the GMT and you have a killer, regular production sub.

When I think of Brabus, I think of a trim level for Smart cars.

There’s a lot to like but lose the branding and get reasonable on the price and this would be a winner.

Imagine the OP up/down logo instead of Brabus. Panerai, my retainer fee is reasonable.

I’m sorry, this brand just keeps making mistake after mistake. It’s a shame because there’s a lot to love, but the direction is all wrong. Prices are also absurd.

Significantly more appropriate collaboration than AP and the Black Panther/Marvel collaboration.

Looks great!!!
Been away from the car scene for too long, didn't realize Brabus is in the boat business... It's rated at 300 meters WR (same as 1661/1664) but has a display caseback, so this further confirms the move to a solid casebacks on the other carbotech models is a primarily cost-cutting move or to conceal whatever changes were made to the movement? |

Never even heard of Brabus before. Must be for Europe. It's cool but lose the logo and the price is obscene.

Sad, but hardly a surprise. We've seen Jean-Marc Pontroué's work before and it wasn't good.
How quickly he turned Panerai from this: Into this: I'm sure it has appeal to some. But it isn't a Panerai. |

Because the 100 piece Brabus watch is the only watch they make. Let’s be serious. Us old-schoolers should be well pleased in another year or so. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
