Very cool watches,. But you better buy very very well as they drop like the brick I threw in my nearby lake.

I'm not a fan. But they do look pretty nice. Just not for me.

I handled a few back years ago, they are clever and whimsical. But they aren't for me. I would never wear one.

I've never seen them in person but they do add some color and variety to anyone's weekly rotation.

I've only ever seen one off the Internet, on someone's wrist at Price Club (Costco?) of all places. If I remember correctly - this was a decade ago - it was a Krono. I mentioned to her that I liked the watch and she was shocked I even knew what it was. I guess I shouldn't have been surprised because who the hell knows anything about Alain Silberstein? They're clown watches. But I love them, they shake up your watch collection and look great in a winder box. Definitely great conversation pieces at the very least!

I love his design language. But so far, none of his collabs really makes me commit to buying and keeping one.

Here's a fun day-date. Day of the week is the smiley face. I think this is Wednesday. Friday is a big smile, Monday is a sad face, etc.
