On 10/17 I submitted this YEMA for my WRUW watch of the day. BY FAR my LEAST favorite unit in my assemblage of timepieces. Why I even keep, I don't know.
Now that I have come clean, admit to the world, WHICH OF YOUR CHILDREN (WATCH) IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE!
must be this swatch. quality is just meh
It's like with Star Wars films, there's 11 of them. ONE of them has to be my least favorite (coughRiseOfSkywalkercough), but do I enjoy them all? You bet! Just all for different reasons.
Why do you keep your least favorite? Because then another watch will become your least favorite. It's holding the line!
As far as my least favorite watch...
Cheap, REALLY cheap chinese quartz copy of a Diesel that is WAY too big (60mm) and actually falling apart. I really should just scrap it.

So I heard. Thanks
My sales finger is twitchy; as soon as I don't love something, it's out the door.

That is something to behold.
Mine would be this Invicta I-Force a customer gave to me. can’t stand to wear it for more than like 15 minutes, just doesn’t suit my style even kind of, but can’t bear to sell it yet because the guy was really kind to me. It’s a ridiculous watch tbh, but the only one I own in a box! The lume is legit tho, better than any of my other watches, but that’s not saying much at all.
This is on my 7” wrist. Apparently it’s a 46mm case, haven’t measured.
makes me look like a child lol
That is something to behold.
I wanna see what a 60mm watch looks like on a wrist lol

What a bind. I had the same thing happen a few years back but when my buddy died I sold the watches that he gave me, except 1 small quartz. They were these huge gawdy Invicta type pieces. I understand.
That is something to behold.
It's a POS, you can say it. LOL

Here you go... With a 44mm Glycine for reference
Not sure, I have a couple of non-runners, there is a watch whose case I'm allergic to. Also, there is this one:
With this watch by Winner you have to make up your mind where the 12 o'clock position is on the dial. It's either the top right corner, or just to the left of it. There are triangular watches of this shape of either persuasion, this one leaves it up to you. Also: the power reserve won't last the night, which does not matter too much, as you surely won't wear this one for more than one day. The rubber strap on this watch is good though, so one day when I'm in need of a strap of this size...
Perhaps this one:
It's a cheap and gimmicky kind of watch, as in very cheap and very gimmicky. The glass of coke I had in the cafeteria this lunch was more expensive than this watch (possibly not if you include shipping from China, but it would be close). The aeroplane on the dial is the seconds hand. I mean, I bought it because it was gimmicky, but...
This was a tough one as I have plenty of "least favorites", but today it is the Anicorn. It is downright ugly and the only reason it made it to my case is my son gave it to me - because he did not like it! It has a Miyota automatic movement. Make an offer😮.

Lol looks like you’re wearing a mantle clock, I love it 😂
That one: A Cross quartz chrono circa 2000. I received it as a gift and therefore it's un-binable but it's still atrocious: a more than 60mm effective L2L extending from a 38mm case and this is caused by a semi rigid bracelet that doesn't even have the good grace to have a milled clasp.
This is a tough one, like all of my watches, but, this Seiko was owned long before my visual disability developed. These days it's not easy for me to read, so not really the fault of a 37 year old watch...
Exactly. My eyes have failed long before my watches have too.
Maybe for the kids?
If I had a son, I'd give it to him. I only have a 5 year old daughter though. It's OK...it's running a bit slow anyway.

What a monster
This POS. The instruction booklet that came with it was the worst Chinese to English nonsensical gibberish. I got this back when my watch knowledge was not very keen but I keep it around for a laugh. It took an hour or longer to get the stupid thing to sync with a radio tower, and then it lost the sync overnight. Tried for another hour and haven't been able to get another one since. It's really more like a toy than an actual watch, and 45 mm looks ridiculous on me.
I can't tell you how close I was to just taking a nine iron to this thing, maybe I'll go do that now.

What a great conversational piece. This is exactly what I had hoped would come out under this topic. Thank you much.
The Zelos Comet 39 Gold Bronze variant. Thought I'd love it, does nothing for me. I'm actively looking to sell it
Trade in for something that rings your chimes.

more than likely.
Once a watch loses its appeal to me, it won't remain. Either gift or sell.
This one is going away soon.

Gift or sell. Good plan.
Best thread ever! 😂
This one 😭
I could never afford a Richard Mille so I bought a Tsar Bomba for a couple hundred bucks on Amazon. 😭 It felt like a good choice at the time and there are times when the watch matches the style I'm wearing so it will get some wrist time, but I don't find myself wearing it all that much due to the low legibility of the dial and some of the sharp edges on the case. 🥺

Thank you. Just got lucky.

A prop from a Wild Wild West vs Steampunk Sam movie. Lol.
I was gifted a Shinola quartz. Would love their Titanium automatic diver but got something kind of dress and dull. Wore it once to be polite

I guess that once was enough!
