What do you think about sports watches with integrated bracelets?
Do you like the ubiquitous PRX, the massively hyped CW Twelve and similar models?
Is this trend going to last even longer or die down soon?

I always had a thing for watches, starting with a Casio when I was 9 or 10 years old. Then decades followed with me buying the odd fashion piece here and there but nothing “serious”. During the pandem...

I like it that there are now integrated bracelet models at most price points.
It means consumer choice.
Nobody's forcing us to buy them.
And there are quite a few non-integrated bracelet options out there if integrated doesn't float your boat😉
I didn't like them in the 70's and I don't like them now. But I'm a strap collector with some watches.
Integrated bracelets = deal killer.
100% not interested until I saw a PRX on wrist in person, became a fan right then. What difference does it make really IF you all ready have several watches on the bracelet that you would never swap out. My wrist is probably a little more slender than average cuz I lost some of my fat a•• so I was curious about the PRX looking too big but I think it’s fine on smaller wrists. Just my opinion and I do get it when people are not interested.
I like variety so I see them as a positive. But it's not a "trend", they've been around for decades and will always be here. The difference is the amount of hype around them (but that's true of many watches at the moment).
I feel like it's being overdone at this point. There's only a few I really like, but even with those there are other watches I would rather have.
I like some of them and don't like some other. Cool to see new models at decent price point. What make me a little bored is that every brand seems to want its integrated bracelet right now. We know the Nauti and RO are having a moment for few years now but it's a little bit too late now (personal opinion)

Every time I see one I think of disco balls, butterfly collars, wide lapels, and helmet hair. They are about as sporty as a Mustang II.

Think I hear the song 'Staying Alive' playing in the background... 😁
