I cant tell if its ugly or just amazing

i love the look of this thing but at the same time it just looks ugly, i don't get it. I've been on the edge of buying this for a couple months now and i don't know if i really should buy it. It's kind of expensive for what it is but it is just so unique. and the 46mm diameter is maybe just to much for my tiny 6.3 wrists.

haha it really is. you wouldnt be able to wear it often.

Not every idea is good just because it is something new.

Personal opinion: this is from a designer who tries a bit too hard. And since you're asking: I can see how it could be mistaken for something interesting but I'm afraid on the ugly vs amazing scale it clearly goes one way.

Consider how difficult this is going to be to sell if you get tired of it.

I like mine a lot, but I’ll be honest, I haven’t loved it quite as much as I thought. It’s a bit big on my 7.25” wrist. It’s also a bit difficult to read. But despite all that, I don’t regret getting it. The lume is awesome. It is so unique.

I saw your posts on it when I was researching about it. Seeing you say how you haven't loved it as much seems to be a common thing with a lot of people who get it. And as for size if it's too big for yours then idk maybe it's just not ment to be

Yeah tbh I could maybe go around asking those who have said they don't enjoy it and offer to buy it but at that point it probably isn't worth it. Thanks for your opinion tho it gives me a bit more to think

Could be both amazing AND ugly 🤣

I appreciate Xeric as a brand. They make some really great and unique pieces that they know aren't going to please everyone. If anything, they want to own a market niche for weirdos. It's not the prettiest belle at the ball, but it has a wonderful personality.

Wow it's huge. Er not the biggest fan of the design

·

I’m gonna go with ugly.

.. I think it’s kind of cool but cool as relative with dollar vs value = how cool it actually is. What’s the retail value on this piece?

. if it’s well constructed with the usual suspects of a well constructed watch, I think that’s a good value and pretty cool!😎

Yeah it's 316L the top glass is saffire while the outer is acrylic sadly (to keep cost down). And it's a modified myota 900 series

It’s definitely different, but I wouldn’t say “ugly”. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and In my opinion, at the right price to the right person, it looks pretty cool to me.

·

It's thick. Not to my liking. It's not versatile. I think unless you've got the opportunity to pull it off frequently, don't go for it. They need to consider how to slim it down to under 12mm to be more dressy.
