Absolutely hideous.
After that seriously vile Richard Mille watch posted on here, I had an e-mail from Jura about this U-Boat horror...

If that was the only watch available, I'd try another hobby! Apparently its exclusive to Jura, presumably because no-one else want to sell it!
That's a shocker!

There's a lot worse than that

I can't believe that there has ever been another horological abomination quite as bad as this lumpen, hideous monstrosity.
I don't know about that, it's a close-run thing with this mish-mash
That u-boat is truly hideous!
I had that email today, made me laugh looking at it, then the price!

Pah! U-Boat are mere amateurs. I’ll see your U-Boat and raise you an Invicta (or three):

I somehow have a soft spot for Invicta's horrors....they are just so unashamedly gross without even a hint of shame or pretention to tastefulness, you almost forgive them. On the other hand, people like U-boat claim to have some sort of historic military lineage, which just makes the resulting horror worse!
That u boat is disgusting

While Invicta will always win any game of "Godawfulugly Top Trumps" by a mile, you have to factor-in the fact they cost about 50p once they are in the inevitable clearance sale, whereas the horrors above from PP and Rolex represent the deposit on a house - and constitute a shortlist-of-shame that needs the hand-grenade-"inspired" Aquanaut adding to it:

The Rolex Daytona Leopard is always a strong contender.

That Daytona reminds me of a few years ago when I was trying on a Cameron DSSD at a cruise terminal in the Caribbean and this guy walked into the jewellers, picked it up off the counter and asked the retailer if he had one with diamonds in - then put it down and walked out when he was told they didn't!
That Daytona Leopard is utterly shockingly awful! I'd rather have the U-boat! Or preferably no watch at all....
Another from the RM range. To be honest there’s a long list from the brand!
What is that all about!!The Rolex Daytona Leopard is always a strong contender.

Not sure if it’s time to start worrying but I really like 2 of the watches posted so far.
Well I was going to go with this one.
The Sponge Bob.
But. This beauty caught me eye.

To think that a group of people across these various companies get paid good money to come up with some of these abominations.
I dont know if you have ever visited the Patek Philippe museum in Geneva but its a wonderful place. Many of the watches are just works of art (A lot of Breguet watches there too) Then you see the Nautilus, its almost jarring as to how ugly it looksI can't believe that there has ever been another horological abomination quite as bad as this lumpen, hideous monstrosity.
There are no words to sufficiently describe that monstrosity. It is worse than brutal.The Rolex Daytona Leopard is always a strong contender.

Never! There is a true beauty to the uglyness of the Ploprof.
Price should definitely have an input in this, its one thing paying £50 for a fugly watch but £2k/£10k+ just shows money doesn't buy class..
Are you man enough?
I used to own a red one of these. Years ago before I knew anything about watches.Are you man enough?

I bloody love the leopard Daytona, and the RM27-03!
Agreed.
Invicta MUST do it deliberately

Not even close to Rolex's worst looking watchI don't know about that, it's a close-run thing with this mish-mash
Invicta wouldn't release a watch this ugly...
(Of course, if you have one and love it, carry on doing so - It would be a dull place if all we saw were Submariners and their clones...)

Breitling Cosmonaute 809 - What's not to like?
Looking at photos I'd agree with you, but after seeing one in a pawn shop window in Whitby(?) I changed my mind.Not even close to Rolex's worst looking watch

Ah, the ultra-rare 'Mildred Roper' Daytona..The Rolex Daytona Leopard is always a strong contender.

There are some watches that don’t appeal to me.
I hardly find them ugly.
For me there are no ugly watches, only ugly opinions.
Would you (Scooby) care to explain to us all why you refer to these people who wear the watch as vile?

Precisely. Some ugly characters just love to bitch.
I've always found this to be a visual abomination. But life would be boring if we all liked the same thing!
Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
That is a seriously sweeping statement. There must be a story behind it?
This is from personal experience
The people ive known that have had that that watch have been vile brash fat rich from daddy’s money people
There is an exception to every rule so no offence to any tz folk who have one

What was the sample size for this sweeping generalisation?
It is not a watch one sees everyday.
Totally agree. You could have any- or all- Richard Mille on this thread.Another from the RM range. To be honest there’s a long list from the brand!
Genuinely FPMSL!
I do like the Month indicator though, pretty cool to me!!I don't know about that, it's a close-run thing with this mish-mash
Probably 1!!! :0)
Which would bear out the theory that 100% of people who wear them are vile...
