5 UGLY Watches you need to see! And they actually sell

One person's trash is another person's treasure! Today we will check out 5 watches that I think are just plain UGLY! But you may like them, and that's OK for me! What's your vote for an ugly watch?

The single hand watch is more funky than fugly. That being said I’m not lining up to buy one.

I’ll take the Seiko off your hands and put a black rubber strap on it. Sounds like a remedy for your problem. 🤔

I actually really like that red star. It's gorgeous. I just wish the case were polished

[rontierney]

Quite like my Red Star Solo for occasional wear - the hugely domed crystal and curved dial and hand are what make it interesting.

[davidgarza]

The red star single hand looks good to me i like it a lot

[billcore]

thought you were going to mention corum, AP RO, Hublot Big Bang, Zenith Defy and anything Invicta but those are mine 😊 plus anything RM

For me it's any date window between 4 and 5. 😬😬🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

But you're totally right when you say one man's trash is another's treasure.

I agree most of them except for the red star. Its the only watch on this list with simple minimalist design and calling it ugly is questionable, Perhaps plain looking might be a better word.

[robmorrow]

The customer is always right in matters of taste.

Orient is a mixed bag. That design stay the same with the original World Timer from the 70s. Also that design scream 70s so much that's why people actually want it.

[RedwoodAggie]

I had a horrified look on my face the entire short. 😬

[RobWhittlestone]

Great Marcos filo mou. I HATE the Phoebus logo. Agree these watches are pretty ugly.

[TheGrenadier]

HOW DO YOU DARE TALK AGAINST ORIENT? LOL. The World Timers and other "Três Chaves" as they're called in Brazil are popular but still divisive. I see a lot of Tristars of all ages - including brand-new, they're still made - but i don't see many of these larger ones, and yet vintage ones sell quite regularly.

But here's a tough one: ugliest islander? Imo it's the Islander Sands Point with Lumed Coral Dial #ISL-161. It has a dial that looks like a slime mold or maybe an alien fingerprint. I'm sure someone loves the otherworldly look but that's the one i chose! I even let the golden skeleton slide. But really though i was impressed at the entire catalog. One or two misses out of 128 listings? Fantastic work

[chuckitaway]

More ugly watches please i am sure i will find something for me here :)

[doinitoutback]

My jaw dropped when I saw the gold Seiko because I was just about to buy one 😂

[charlesholland]

The Orient is beautiful, #1 and #3 is terrible.

[JohnBuckmaster-swwm]

You nailed it! That’s a great list of crappy looking watches… there’s others that are equally as bad, but if you have to limit it to five I can’t argue with any of them

[ravingircey]

Agreed, all bad. Orient can go from gorgeous to hideous, surprising to me.

[cedenoanthony]

Marc! Bring back that salmon dial islander!
