Very agree. It is very segment oriented. Otherwise it's hard to imagine who would have designed this kind of thing.

I actually think it's pretty cool. For me? No but for the right person it's a unique fun watch.

I'm thinking tutti fruiti here.
Which came first in the baguette stakes?
FYI no bubble here - I appreciate the Hublot aesthetic and have collected them.
As others have said, it is targeted at a particular market and in that respect I'd say Hublot have a larger share of 'that market' than Rolex...

This will show up on the wrists of eastern European guys wearing track suits soon.

FYI - this bejeweled YM is also available with a dial covered with 423 pave diamonds, which is the obvious choice for anyone looking to buy this piece!

it's for people that actually own a Yacht, and not just someone who buys the watch.

I think it will look great on the Doc,s wife when she gets one.
BTW my wife loves it also apart from the rubber.

If money were no object, I'd rock the Vanna White in no time.

I like it. It's colourful for those that want to pull it off. It doesn't come across as gaudy to me, which makes it a winner.

diverdoug · 24 March 2017, 12:16 PM

I might get one for my wife, she would love it. There is no accounting for taste.

I will reserve my judgement until I see it in Real life.

I'd appreciate it if the folks that insist that Rolex doesn't follow fashion or trends to remember this watch, as they have convienently forgotten it's bejeweled/leopard printed/blinked predecessors.
