TAG Heuer, Bremont and Panerai. No rhyme or reason, just don't like them
there are certain brands, seiko,poljot,tissot (autos), omega,oris, and yes precista etc who always make at least some watches that i covet even if i'm too skint to buy(currently just about everything apart from parnis and vostok lol :shock: ), but there are a few i just can't seem to get on with :for me tag,longines, maurice lacroix,avia,most rotary....who makes you go yuk? :bootyshake: :pukeleft:

TAG Heuer, Bremont and Panerai. No rhyme or reason, just don't like them
For me it's Omega.... the only watch I really like is the new PloProf.
TAG Heuer (but not Heuer), AP, Hublot, I really struggle with Breitling - I like a few of their lineup but I dislike many of the rest of them so much that I'd struggle to really enjoy one (negative aura?).
I used to think I didn't like Breitblings but after a few months here I just don't know... :? :lol:
APs don't do anything for me (fortunately they're also far out of my budget), nor do Hublot. Actually, while I admire Langes, I'm not a dress watch fan so don't covet them at all (also fortunately).

There's nothing from Seiko I really love, there's a couple I'd have but well down my imaginary list.
Chris
Tag Heuer
Cartier
Chanel
Frank Muller
Jacob

Rado.
Newer model Rolex and Tudor. They just try too hard to look good. Vintage models are my all time favorites. Absolutely beautiful and unfortunately way out of my price range. I especially love the really early Explorer I's. Early Sub's also have a special place in my heart.
Bottom feeder,

Not that I could ever afford the following but neither of these brands get me either :shock:
Patek Phillipe
A.Lange sohne.
Rolex
Breitling
Tag
I know the first two are so popular but I just don't like them at all.
Agree with Breitling although i do love the Colt. And i forgot Swatch!

In no particular order
Breitling
Panerai
Cartier
Hublot
Swatch
Bvlgari (sic)
Tissot
Ebel
Corum
Panerai, most of the Breitlings, Hublot, and the ROO's from AP. And the first prize goes to Romain Jerome.
surprised at the abuse Tissot is getting, the Seastars are among my favourites and i would kill for a pr516 valjoux chrono if funds would allow, probably my midrange grail!

I don't like any of these:
Omega,
Breitling
Zeno (sorry...)
Ocean
Panerai
On the other hand, I focus hard on the ones I really like! :)
/e
high end seikos really, i didn't get pams until i had a box with one opened infront of me!!
i also dont get daytonas at all, but then again i love ploprofs!
Panerai, Panerai and Panerai :twisted:
:)
Alan
interesting to see how often panerai's are getting mentioned!
for me,
Hublot
Rolex (sorry, I do think I get the new GMT but otherwise it's the older ones that work best for me)
Tag Heuer (but Heuer's - yum)
Breitling
It may well be age-related,but the following don't stir my possession emotions at all:
Breitling
U-Boat
Sinn
Breitling, don't get me wrong, they're not a bad watch and i've tried a couple as i really liked the look, but they just felt wrong on the wrist and i've never went back, i've also gone off Omega, owned plenty of them and they're another good watch, but i rarely tend to go back to a watch that i had, instead looking at getting something different.
Graham
U-Boat
Breitling
Bell and Ross
Most Corum
Rado
Most Tag
AP for me but as I will never afford one its not going to be a problem :lol:
not seen a Cartier watch I have ever thought nice.
I am sure thet are cool, but not to my taste.
Tag and Breitling. One's a bit too associated with chavs/ wannabes, the other's just too big and full-on.
Rolex are kinda on the verge for me - they do look good, but a little too obvious/ flashy.
I'm new to this lark but so far I'm struggling to see the appeal of Rolex and Panerai watches! Please don't crucify me :bom:
Breitling ,just not for me
Graham, most of the AP range, Cartier, U Boat, Hublot, B & R to name a few :wink:
When you look long into an abyss, the abyss looks long into you.........
Breitling & paneria get a few mentions here, and I'm going to echo that too. Just don't like them.
Jacob and co. for me, never really liked that red, yellow, blue thing - always reminds me of 80's art.
they are bloody awful, and everyone thinks you paid 50p in a chav market anyway... :DOriginally Posted by tempz

Not exclusively,but including:
Breitling
Graham
U Boat
Rolex (apart from the Kermit)
Rado
Jacob & Co
Hublot
AP
Panerai
Rolex
Audemars Piguet
Rado
Graham
Breitling for Bentley
I used to think Panerai and Bell & Ross, but these have grown on me.
breitling (bar ocean heritage, bizarrely sized) and tag. too busy a dial and unattractive case/bezel (to my taste)
For me-
Oris
Ball
Bell & Ross
Ebel
Rado
May change my mind in the future though!
Tag Heuer
Cartier
Tissot
AP
Rado
Panerai
Hublot
Breguet
Frank Muller
Cartier
Ebel
Chanel
Bulgari (Vulgari IMO)
Zenith
Police
DKNY
Corum
Ulysse Nardin
Bell & Ross
Blancpain
The big three - AP, VC and shock horror PP. The first two don't do anything for me, the third I just couldn't see me spending the cash required to get into one I really like. :| Also, not a particular fan of Frank Muller, or UN. Different strokes eh?
Rolex ( dont hate me)
Jacob and Co
Cartier
Chanel

Any of the clothes designers that try and make watches.

Probably others too, but they're the ones that spring to mind.
:lol: :lol: Peter clearly knows what he likes...............Originally Posted by ktmog6uk
I don't either. :)Originally Posted by Voiladhras
A watch brand you don't like is probably one you haven't handled or tried on yet (with some exceptions that will always be just plain ugly) :wink:
I didn't used to get Panerai until I tried one on - then the other evening I tried a 233 and really got it :)
Ulysse Nardin & GP have never produced anything I remotely like and some REAL shockers.....
But there are plenty of brands and watches for me to spend my cash on!
