dabouncer72 Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 OK so haha I am taking a graphics design class and one of the assignments is to design an ad. So I was bored actually made a design of a watch, and wondering really how good does it look. So here it is below attached onto the ad that I was supposed to make for the class, any and all comments or suggestions would be welcome. Question: would you buy this for $600 in real life if it existed? considering that it is genuine and automatic movement. (Note: the smaller hand is a stopwatch) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dani Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 maybe if it had bigger hands and date mag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchy Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 maybe if it had bigger hands and date mag. I agree it should have bigger hands and date mag. Maybe do something with the bezel too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehtolcad Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 i'd only buy it if i was in desperate need of a transformers novelty watch honestly, the optimus prime? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OiRogers Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Man, you guys are brutal... I could be interested in a single button chrono... but I do agree, for ease of reading... Date mag and larger hands would be something I'd prefer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least this gives him some insight into what people may be looking for. EDIT: Ok, if you mean ehtolcad's post, I get what you mean...but hey, he did ask everyone's opinion...

USMC8404 Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 I agree, add a date mag, and wider hands. Of course you could put crown guards on it too and you would have a rolex rep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironmarshal Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 I for one like it without the date mag. Not having one gives it a much cleaner, streamlined look. The hands could be changed, but I can say I think there would be a market for this watch in that price range....maybe not to watch geeks like us, but for somebody who wants a nice watch without dropping a couple of grand with a different look.

dabouncer72 Posted August 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Does it come with the lady? unfortunately not why, do you like her better than the watch itself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest carlsbadrolex Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 unfortunately not why, do you like her better than the watch itself? YES, I like her better than the watch. I would give you $200 for the watch, but she is obviously worth the asking price of $500! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugwash Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Question: would you buy this for $600 in real life if it existed? considering that it is genuine and automatic movement. (Note: the smaller hand is a stopwatch) If it didn't have the stupid name, if you could find an auto-chrono movement that does what you want for $600, if you removed some of the flair that's put there just so you can make it look designed, then most likely yes. It looks a little fashion quartz, but an auto-chrono for $600? Hell yeah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkirke Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 if SHE came with it, i'd buy 40,000 of em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roflwaffle Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Suggestion: Fix the links, they look pretty bad. why is there a little apple key symbol behind the girls head? and, yes, change the name of the watch model... brand text should be bigger, its microscopic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
