Technology Gone Madder???

The dial is far too cluttered, they should remove the central dot. :-)

Wonder if it is water resistant

Hideous!

I'm surprised with Geo's statement! It is still too cluttered without the dot!

 

They should also remove the number (math is not in style anymore) to make it fashionable and also the dash, since it might offend some people thinking it is an insulting gesture!

Going to tape a strip of paper round my wrist and draw a dial on it indicating - say 2:30 - it will be correct twice a day, quite a bit cheaper & probably better looking.

Brilliant Blacklab, how on earth did you find at one?

Just remember hearing it a few years ago, probably when Spike Milligan died, was always a big fan of his scribblings although the Goons were well before my time.

ROFL!!! Great find Blacklab!

I bet that crown isn't even functional, probably just a glued on little knob for that "fashion" look.
