Seriously uncool, forever?

Which of these is least fashionable and will stay that way? And why?

Ok, first off that bracelet is now a classic. I own one (sadly not steel and gold) and I can’t believe how comfortable it is. Really.

Ok, maybe it isn’t a classic and it’s just me that likes it, but it is seriously comfortable.

Second, and more importantly, NOTHING is out of style forever. Everything comes back.

Third, ignore everything I’ve said. I like all those things, so I’m clearly no judge.

That Tag claw bracelet, never knew the name, has always been my least favorite design aesthetics on any watch ever. Just gag me with a spoon! 😉😁

Full disclosure: I'm a fan of all the options in the poll and very happy they're all currently uncool - more bargains for me 😁

Apparently the 90s two tone look is now being badged the "camp watches" trend and attempts are being made to bring it back into fashion.

None of the above! Dress watches are neat, nothing wrong with ETA, Gold is a fantastic color and I like the Tag so this is impossible to choose for me. 🤣

I'm also a fan of them all and glad they're not "in" - means they're relative bargains.

Yellow gold cases IF they're a brick.

Yes! Agree 100%!

I have nothing against ETA movements, but they are the least cool of the options.

Gold is awful in sport or tool watches, but they are usually pretty awful on their own.

Gold tool watches in general. It just shouts "more money than taste". For modern Roleces doubly so.

I’ve come to like the two tone look on my own, but if it’s becoming a thing I might begin to like it less.

Absolutely. No one I know would rock a golden sub. Know lots of people with golden watches and a few with steel subs but not one with a golden one. Don't quite know if its just like @PoorMansRolex said and the golden aesthetic just doesn't work with tool and dive watches. It just doesn't look right haha

I voted Tag and am not surprised that’s leading the votes 🤣 But I kinda like that bracelet. Reminds me of an era I miss

·

Yellow gold is losing out to rose gold, red gold, sedna gold.... 😂

·

Pretty sure that Tag bracelet is called a “link” bracelet. They still offer it in updated form on new models of the same name.

Is this a “tag claw bracelet”????

Looks like it.

·

What’s uncool for one is cool for another.

·

When did ETA movements become uncool? Did I miss the memo?

·

The tag wins this hands down..

Its HORRIFIC!!

·

It’s very Invicta like. Garish. Oh the TAG.

·

I want it all😎

·

I dislike the claw bracelet the most. But you never know what will be in style. I thought bell bottom jeans would never come back and now everything 70s is in again. 🤔

When all the fawning over in-house movements began.

TAG call it "the link", I call it "the claw".

OMG that tag watch 😂😂😂😂

So Swatch-owned ETA restricting supply and support to non-group brands, and the necessity of others to source elsewhere or develop in-house is tantamount to “fawning”?

Sedna is Omega’s gold and red gold I have seen from many manufacturers.

Always coming up with new metallurgy.
