I loved the sci fi novel Dune when I read it as a teen waaaaaaaay back in the 1970's, but that Hamilton "Dune", not so much ... and that's being kind ...

Is it the price the execution or both you did dislike?

to tell you the truth, I wouldn't pay five bucks for the Hamilton "Dune" ... it looks like a movie prop ... which is fine on the Big Screen, but not close-up. Several years ago I visited a Star Trek museum in Vulcan, Alberta, Canada (yes, a real place!) and they had many actual Star Trek TV & movie props on display there and I was shocked to see just how cheap and obviously fake these things looked up close! It's "Movie Magic" that makes 'em look real on the Big Screen ...

I like the watches, but think they should have been around ยฃ1000.

I think the actual prop in the movie doesn't look to great, but this watch on hand looks and feels solid. There's so many things Hamilton did to make this feel very solid and special

Being someone that nerds out over some of the memorabilia at Side Show Collectibles, I can see this fitting well with that crowd ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿบ

I do.

I'll delete my opinion for you.

Yeah, I like them too. We will have to see how much demand there is for them. If they don't sell out, I think there will be some good deals to be had in the next year or two ๐Ÿค™๐Ÿผ

No don't delete it man! It's all fun conversation

Watches ain't that serious

I appreciate you sharing ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿ”

I like the look of the watch and would pay 300 for it, on a whim when sufficiently motivated

For multi-thousands of dollars Hamilton has to be out of their minds

I know what you mean!

But after handling the watch at $300 it would have been a totally different watch, but yes i wish it was $300 as well i would purchase two vs zero which is what i can afford right now ๐Ÿ˜†

I like this digital version best. I will be looking for this on the secondary market in the future. Initial cost is a bit high for me and I doubt they will be discounted.
