That's bloody horrible.
Not for me either, I’ve had better looking Swatches!
I actually quite like it, a simple and clear layout and the Red is always appealing. At £350 the price is not CWCs usual level of madness.
I’d say that you’re being kind.Quote:

But why does the second hand extend way past the second track. OK I see... it goes to the 1/5 second track around the perimeter. So why then bother with that inner track. And the red crown. I suppose stopwatches sometimes have red crowns so you can find the start and stop button quickly under pressure. Under what circumstances would you need to do that with a time-setting crown on a wristwatch ? The whole thing is a contrived mess.Quote:

No and no again.
Quite like it.Swatch seem to do okay.Understand they are copying the stopwatch look but what's the point of the 1/5th second markers.Biggest problem is the price.Would buy for £150 max.

Not terrible, but it looks very hard to read.
The only thing missing is a cyclops over the CWC.Quote:

Should the outer and inner tracks not be reversed i.e. the minutes on the outer and hours on the inner, where the appropriate hands extend to?
I just dislike most watches with Arabic dials. Since I learned to tell the time, when I was about 5 or 6 years old, I much prefer batons only, so this is a double no-no.
I like this red button. Not a fan of that CWC though.Quote:

Why is the outer ring of numbers, the hours, reached by the minute hand? Why is the smaller inner minute ring, touched by the hour hand?
No, I don't like i.
That's grotesque.

Show me 1 watch that everybody agrees is perfect?
I don't like that CWC, but there's also a lot I don't like about most forum faves.
Very hence Hanhart... I’d love to stumble across a bargain KM version one day. As with the Heuer there is a functional reason for the red button.Quote:

Look pretty cr@p to me, and the price is daft however I guess I am not their target audience.
I think I would like it more if the numerals were a bit bigger, and while I get what they're going for with the red crown I don't think it works visually. Swing and a miss.
It’s not for me regardless, but £350?! £200 is pushing it but still just about fair enough for the regular G10...

Whether or not that exists, this certainly isn't it. It's not even a perfect 0/10. Maybe a 2. Considerably worse than mere mediocrity, but not quite bad enough to be remembered for years to come like say, Plan 9 From Outer Space.Quote:

Really like that stopwatch by the way, very cool.
