Yikes!

Chainring · 11 September 2013, 01:10 PM

Not my thing. It makes beautiful watches look like cheap knockoffs. IMHO.

Pyclah · 11 September 2013, 01:24 PM

They should be the Viagra version.

Cc1966 · 11 September 2013, 03:45 PM

They managed to make them look as if they are made out of plastic. Not for me...

Nidal · 11 September 2013, 04:53 PM

Horrible and cheap

gpfps · 11 September 2013, 10:18 PM

Looks like cheap toy watches !

Robs · 11 September 2013, 10:28 PM

not for me

AbqRolexFan · 11 September 2013, 10:30 PM

Definitely not my cup of tea!

cop414 · 11 September 2013, 10:31 PM

Ouch, not for me but hey whatever floats your boat.

Adam K. · 12 September 2013, 04:14 AM

Horrifyingly ugly, in my opinion. And I stress the word "horrifyingly".

phiengin · 12 September 2013, 04:16 AM

But probably will not buy it

brokenchains · 12 September 2013, 04:18 AM

Waste of $$, why do that??

Brandon(phila) · 12 September 2013, 04:18 AM

Except for the Blacked out Exp II (2nd to last pic)

The rest goes to show you that some people have too much $$ to burn

jjnd08 · 12 September 2013, 04:20 AM

What a shame that they wrecked those beautiful watches...

No idea why someone would want to cover the WG/YG with black paint on the Sky Dweller...

It's also ironic that if those pics were posted in the Watchout section, most likely people would say they are fakes...which begs the question...why do it with a genuine watch...

beshannon · 12 September 2013, 04:54 AM

Hideous

DC Engineer · 12 September 2013, 04:58 AM

wow .. they turned a Rolex to a Nixon.

Friedl41 · 12 September 2013, 05:05 AM

I prefer Prohunter and Titan Black.

WyoWatch · 12 September 2013, 05:08 AM

My thoughts are that they took perfectly good watches and turned them into fake looking pieces of
