ewwwwwww.........thats disgusting. and +/- 12 seconds a day.....what a joke!!!

think of the Rolex you could get for $9,000 instead of this POS

I lose all respect for a company that makes sunglasses trying to jump into the high end watch market overnight. and especially with this offering....

what if Rolex started making sunglasses?? hell, why not Rolex handbags too??

I think name brands like Gucci and Louis Vuitton and a few others should just stick to handbags and stop trying to slap thier name on a watch and sell it for the price of a decent watch made by a real watch company, not a designer brand.

Oakley should just stick to making sunglasses

Why not. Luxottica owns practically every other Sunglass / Eyeglass retailer.

Is that a storm drain cover design worked into the hinged bezel/cage - and what is supposed to protect - the dial/movement from the environment or the wearer/environment from the movement? Whatever, its probably not nuclear- rated. Just sayin....

I agree with you, not just about the Oakley watch (which I honestly don't think I'd spend more than $50 on). It also blows my mind how people will pay decent money for a "fashion watch" such as Gucci, Michael Kors etc....many of those are no better than a Timex despite the name they put on the dial.

The organization I work for seems to love giving us Oakley swag. If I get one of these I will let you know.
