Thoughts on “Froot Loops”
Not sure if a nickname has been established for this new dial.. but I can’t help think “Froot Loops” whenever I see it.
The dial is definitely growing on me. Might be a one year release. |

Probably the best name so far. I agree with the one year, two at most and gone.
The guy who throws it in the safe unworn and takes it out in 20 years may be a winner. One never knows. |

Skittles is more appropriate and I am sticking with it. In reality it can be fruit loops , because they are solid circles and not loops at all.

Who else has had a Froot Loop Sundae?? Vanilla ice cream with Froot Loops! Kellogg's would serve these at the end of the factory tour in Battle Creek, Michigan. Guilty of making these at home as an adult. Delicious!

This "thing" should be called the "Watch&Pop". At least now we know why Rolex sued that company. They stole this genuine and world famous Rolex design!

Although Fruit Loops is very good I would still go with Skittles as it is one word.
Incoming Skittles. 'Will pick it up tomorrow. Incoming Fruit Loops. 'Will pick it up tomorrow. I'll take the first option by a slim margin. Ali |

I don't know about that nickname for the watch, but it does fit well with the enthusiasts looking to brand a watch with an alternative name.

Fruity Pebbles/Trix
Louis Vouitton started the trend with artist painted Dots on their new purses.
I heard it involved some Charity or an organization Can anyone confirm? Oris and Casio have dotted faces also. Not sure what’s behind this transition from multiple supply chains. Comments welcomed |
