Media McGregor collaborates with Jacobs &Co to make incredibly ugly watch

[sfer1]

I haven't worn a watch in the last decade.

Because they’ve never been about telling time.

Don’t get why anybody would want a watch anymore

Because they haven’t been about telling time in at least 50 years.

Protip for suredawggers: don't ever shell out money for an expensive watch unless you have the money for it or it is a gift, nobody cares about them nowadays

Get a nice silver or gold-filled chain, or shit, even a gold-plated chain (depending on your complexion) if you actually want girls to look at/notice you. Hell, even a bracelet is better than a watch in this day and age.

Tell me you’re a grinder without telling me you're a grinder. Nothing wrong with that either.

The absolute perfect marriage of subject and medium.

Jacobs & Co make the ugliest watches going and they are bought pretty much exclusively by clueless assholes with no taste.

I don't mind the look, but it seems it will be hard to actually read the time.

were you so triggered by my other post in the Nate thread that you immediately came to this thread to reply here? LMFAO not even a minute inbetween, holy permavirgin energy. Grow thicker skin

You seem mad... nice car, nice computer, some a fancy phone, some a fancy pair of shades, some a. big necklace, some a huge mansion they don't need...

Not mad. But notice how all the other things you listed have a utility, or benefit they bring to the consumer? Whereas the watch serves zero purpose? Well it does have a purpose, which I already detailed. It's "peacocking" at it's more pure. "Just please look at my watch and tell me it's cool, and understand that I do in fact have a lot of money."

Cars, computers, phones, shades all serve a purpose. And even a necklace or whatnot I can get behind. They at least have been around for ages and are used as a piece of fashion. Giant ugly ass watches don't look good, compared to a nice chain. The fact that Rolex has become synonymous with "expensive watch" tells one a lot. You see a Rolex, you know that guy spent several thousand dollars. Why? Because he wants to simply tell you he spent several thousand dollars. That's the only purpose.

Had to check, didn't even realize it was the same guy lol. Makes sense! you seem as retarded in this one as in the other. At least you're consistent

What's a grinder? I'm not familiar with homosexual terms, you seem to be an expert so, explain what it means mate

Stupid people tend to look over small details, so I don't blame you for your low IQ. However, I am sorry your parents dropped you one too many times on the head as a baby, atleast they're making up for it by letting you still live with them rent free huh?

well, everything in you screams of small, sorry, other than being incredibly stupid nothing really stands out. You also laugh at your own jokes which is kinda sad.

So I'm gonna slightly disagree here in that I do think theres nothing wrong with indulging in luxuries if you derive enjoyment from them - all clothing that isn't just like goretex is to one degree or another making a choice about what you wear to asthetic please and thats all good in my view.

Now I do agree that watches have become a lot like the a jumper with a big 'BALENCIAGA' on it - the whole thign is just to be about letting you know it was expensive and therefore the owner could afford it. BUT I do actually think Rolex deserves the position it has because I think it has a lot of really beautiful and timeless watches - Daytonas, day-dates, submariners etc.

I also think there are makes such as Franck Mueller which make really nice pieces whcih are art in their own way and a pleasing thing to own. I personally think the chunky 'watch that looks like a toy I got in a cereal packet' thing which defines like Jacob & Co or Richard Mille or Hublot is trash and them being expensive doesen't change that for me.

Imagine Conor all drunk trying to read the hour on that piece of shit watch.

I get what you're saying. However the thing is, Rolex often look very nice. And one may not even see that it's a Rolex. And they are well made. The big ass chunky watches on the other hand, just look goofy as all hell to me, and come off as like a Rolex's trashy cousin. At least a Rolex generally has a classy feel. And that's my sticking point I guess. If you're going to ask for attention / validation, at least try to be subtle. The chunky watches just scream insecurity and or bad taste imo.

The 45+ mm dial is not a great look.

Outside of in the ocean (diving/surfing/etc) it's essentially men's jewelry.

 

[Ozze]

I like the green. But don't understand how some people can find these huge ass watches beautiful.

Might as well hang a wall clock in your wrist.

 

[TonyRolo]

The only watches I can wear are the adjustable band watches that you can pull to adjust the size. The metal ones never really fit perfect either just small or just big. Also feels weird on my ulnar wrist

Are you 13? Nice watches hold their value and are recognized by women. As you said tho you're interested in girls not women so fair enough wear a chain and some ugly Jordans and attract the girl taking your order at McDonald's

High end Swiss watches have been much better investments than gold chains, but if you want to attract low lifes I guess gold chains are still better though.
