This should be a crime!



Looks like it was spray painted.

Never understand (or liked) bamfords. Bad way to ruin a good watch.

It's not AP copying anything, it's a customized watch from a separate, third-party company.

If Lamborghini Gold Coast is what I think it is, then it's the tackiest car dealership outside of Vegas. It inhabits what Chicagoans call "The Viagra Triangle" - full of silicon reconstructed seniors and fake tans. Totally tasteless; designed to appeal to those with more money than they know what to do with.

I think you'll find that Hublot own the photocopier and AP own the original. This AP is just an example of what to do with your money when you have no sense of taste.

Not a big market for Bamford abominations. Resale is a painful experience for sure. They look like knock offs.

Another hideous modification. Reminds me of x to the z putting fish tanks in Honda civics 10 years ago. Except instead of civics, bamford is ruining nice stuff

One of the worst Bamford renditions I have seen... Painful to the eyes.
I agree that it looks spraypainted, like an 80's Earl Scheib Paint job. "I'll paint any watch for $49.95"...LOL

Just awful. They try to make it cool while in fact, it looks stupid.

While I do like some Bamford watches, all of the above are ruined IMHO.

The only bamford that I would love to find preowned is their version of the mil-sub. Otherwise 99 percent of the stuff looks like a 5 dollar knockoff.
