I am a small wristed lady and I have had the black one for several months and I really enjoy it. It is bulky but I can pull it off because it is so light. It's just fun. Makes me think of the Greem café in Seoul every time I wear it.
Got mine today. Real happy with it. Had to pay the new higher price of £175 but still worth it. At last a watch that the whole family like and approve of ! A perfect holiday/fun watch which doesn't break the bank. ( Buying in UK needed an additional £41 duty as it came from the Netherlands (EU) ) A bit of a sting in the tail but, I can't wait to wear it to the pub amongst all the desk divers and wait for the comments. Happy days..............
That was fun, but I noticed two things that are even more fun: a great t-shirt and look at the lume on that watch in the first few seconds of the video, the one you're wearing, Jody! Wow!
I don’t think it would get much wrist time for me but I love that these exist! The excellent video title says it all really, it is a novelty but as novelties go it’s a fun, very well executed and totally unique looking watch! And the price isn’t ridiculous either. It’s probably more than I would pay for it personally but it’s far less egregious than something equally disposable and gimmicky like the MoonSwatch which had people fighting in the street for the chance to buy one a few years ago 😂
I’m not in for this one, but I like that it exists for the people who are in for it. Every time I see it pop up somewhere online it always catches my eye, so that’s something
Perfect for when my Mrs and I attend high+l-end art gallery previews - we'll get one of each. Sounds like delivery will be in time for the next invitation... 12th of never 😅
Art is supposed to make you feel something and this absolutely makes people feel things. I'd wager that more often than not, it'll make people smile, and that's what it's really about.
Thanks a bunch, liked the look and entered my email address for "let us tell you when it's back in stock" - Next day it is and another watch I don't need is on its way! 😮
👍Well I’m in. Plus like you have been looking at this for some time and I have to say I LOVE IT. Yup a novelty through and through, but then watches should be fun and this is without a doubt. Brilliant and thanks for reviewing it Jody, I shall be looking out for a flipper erm… I mean pre-owned specimen. 😉
We saw this trend beaten to death in the sneaker world, with the style being popularized by Joshua Vides, something like 6 years ago. Similarly, quite a few people bought into the gimmick at first, but most people got tired of it very fast. At least with the watch, it isn't something you can DIY with a Sharpie. Personally, I just find "funny" timepieces to be something I'd prefer on my office desk, not my wrist, and this is no different.
That's the kind of novelty watch I can get behind for summer fun. I love wearing my transparent Gshocks in the summer (but I wear them year round) and my brightly colored bands. This kind of watch is a total conversation starter. Also D1 Milano's normal automatic watches are pretty nice. They were around before the PRX and were a great non-pagani option for the design. My quartz PRX is less comfortable but looks far more expensive. I wear the PRX to work events quite often because it slides under a sleeve and looks great without looking like a Rolex/Omega/Etc that people would recognize.
Love the shirt, Jody! This is a Swatch competitor. I do like it. I’d love to see it as a wall clock too! That said, I own a banana made of cement. Banana Concrete. 🍦
I love it. I'm not going to get one, but pretty neat. Polycarbonate is pretty durable but I highly doubt that the rubber coating and printing will be able to take much abuse. Most coatings get tacky and peel over time. I feel like the hands not looking hand drawn is a mistake. I'm sure a custom handset is more expensive to produce but that really stands out with everything else not being perfectly straight.
I've been waiting for it to be back in stock for a while and finally managed to buy it about a week ago. Awaiting arrival now. I'd love to wear it in one of those 2d sketch restaurants/cafes. I know you can find one in Chicago and Tokyo, maybe some other places too? Google is your friend :)
I like it. It's a statement piece and a 'don't take myself too seriously watch'. I would giggle to myself every time I see it on my wrist, and it would probably be the only watch in my collection that anyone notices, to be honest.
Looks like a prop from the original Tron movie ! Certainly unique 👏 Nice one Jody 👍 ps I bought my wife a rose gold coloured D1 Milano for her birthday and it’s a big hit. Very well finished and gorgeous (if unoriginal) design. A good choice for someone who would not appreciate a mechanical watch but who merits better than a rank fashion piece.
Love this thing. I don't know how long I could wear it. BUT, I did try to buy one when i saw it. But all sold out and def not worth more than the list price. But I'm sure glad they made this.
This keeps popping up on social media advertisements at the min strangely. Thanks for the vid, it looks a lot better than I thought it would of! I'm a fan - but not sure I'd impulsively buy it at that price
I registered for the notification when they would be available. I got the notification one day but I noticed it a few hours later - and they were sold out again :(
💡use semi permanent markers to " modify" as desired and required . The future is here, and it's paint by numbers watches. Looks like a fun novelty that I don't need to own to appreciate.
Don't know what I was thinking but I just ordered the Sketch in white. What's your impression about its durability now that you've had it a while? You think it'll hold up?
Great review, Jody! Yeah, kind of neat looking, but I'd be really worried about that print wearing off. I'm kind of rough on my watchbands, though. my wheelchair wheel always rubs them, and I don't think this would last more than a couple of days on my wrist. Even for a novelty watch, that wouldn't make me a happy camper.
A good friend of mine has spray painted 2 cars to look like they are drawings, and like this watch, I can appreciate them but wouldn't want it for myself.
Oh, I was waiting for the usual pocketshot. It would've been interesting to see it with a casual outfit. Is there a plan to bring it back for future videos?
Ha I was wondering if you’d review this. I think this is quite a step above novelty-maybe “concept” is more accurate. Lets face it , the watch industry is VERY conservative design wise so this kind of watch is welcome. I like it and would definitely wear it.Great review as usual
Loved the look and thought it was fun ... but "quartz" wasn't mentioned until 4:27? I'm not necessarily a quartz vs auto snob, but it is nice to know that little detail from the get-go.
That’s a little too “out there” in design for my collection but I see the appeal in the look as a more unique PRX lookalike. I just received the new LumTec Combat B58 GMT in and WOW do you need to give this timepiece a review. The Lume literally lasts all night 🔥 Always love the videos and ordered my Ascent and looking forward to getting that watch on wrist.
That’s a very niche watch. I don’t think I would ever get enough wear out of it to justify the cost. Many more compelling options for $195. But kudos to them for doing something different.
This one only looks good on paper. :P
Boom tish!
Ha!!! You could sketch it
Yeah why not 😂conversation peace, I dig it 😎..now I want one.!!
Ba dum tss!
looks like you stepped into the a-ha take on me music video
Spot on!
Beat me to it! 😆
Oh yeah! Indeed! So it's an 80's watch! :)
😂😂😂 🤣✌🏻
Couldn’t have said it better myself!
Love the George Orwell shirt
He's walking on thin ice wearing this in Australia.
Victoria especially
👊
Timely, these days. Australian, the USA, Britain, Canada - all in desperate trouble.
@@Apokathelosis why
I don't hate it. It grows on you. Love the hand drawn look of the circle and indices.
That is absolutely bonkers. Brilliant idea and well executed. I don't think I'd ever buy one, but I love the fact that it exists.
This looks like a standard Star Wars stormtrooper issue.
Which was drawn by a 8 year old
The perfect watch to wear while listening to Aha Take On Me. It is pretty cool, I'm sure SKMEI will make a homage of it within weeks.
I am a small wristed lady and I have had the black one for several months and I really enjoy it. It is bulky but I can pull it off because it is so light. It's just fun. Makes me think of the Greem café in Seoul every time I wear it.
Yes! I was trying to remember the name of that cafe all the way through the video. Thanks 🙏
heey! does the painting or ,sketch" stay on? or you have to be careful?
This is what I like about the watch world - so many different options for design and application of aesthetics - love this one
This is a really trippy effect. I do kind of like it. Although I don't know whether I'd actually wear it though.
Exactly this. I kind of like it but I wouldn't buy it, I don't think.
Got mine today. Real happy with it. Had to pay the new higher price of £175 but still worth it. At last a watch that the whole family like and approve of !

Love the shirt!!
1:32 made me raise my eyebrows for a couple of seconds there
That was fun, but I noticed two things that are even more fun: a great t-shirt and look at the lume on that watch in the first few seconds of the video, the one you're wearing, Jody! Wow!
Casio with a tilt activated EL backlight?
Well…it is different. Won’t likely see that coming at you on a sidewalk. Definitely a fun occasional piece. Dig the shirt! Cheers!
Wow that is awesome!!! Never seen a watch like that, super unique piece.
I don’t think it would get much wrist time for me but I love that these exist! The excellent video title says it all really, it is a novelty but as novelties go it’s a fun, very well executed and totally unique looking watch! And the price isn’t ridiculous either.

lol I expected to hate it but when you took it out of the box , wow! So cool!
I’m not in for this one, but I like that it exists for the people who are in for it. Every time I see it pop up somewhere online it always catches my eye, so that’s something
Perfect for when my Mrs and I attend high+l-end art gallery previews - we'll get one of each. Sounds like delivery will be in time for the next invitation... 12th of never 😅
“Make Orwell fiction again” great t shirt. 👍🏽
Yes! That's fun and definitely needed in the space.
The overhead shot made it look like when you do virtual try on of watches or glasses, what an interesting effect.
The lug-to-lug kills it for me, for better or worse 😂
Jody, your shirt is AWESOME! 👍🏼
And this watch is super-cool too! 2 bills might be a bit much for it, but for $100 I'm all over it!
I both like it, and get the kitchyness of it as something that might run out or need wrist naps to appreciate again.
Art is supposed to make you feel something and this absolutely makes people feel things. I'd wager that more often than not, it'll make people smile, and that's what it's really about.
Thanks a bunch, liked the look and entered my email address for "let us tell you when it's back in stock" - Next day it is and another watch I don't need is on its way! 😮
I love it!
Okay it's a bit 'sketchy'
But, I love it!
Great review Jody 👍🇬🇧🙂
Amazing design! In my opinion it’s very hard to create something new in watch’s design nowadays, but this item is absolutely different!
👍Well I’m in. Plus like you have been looking at this for some time and I have to say I LOVE IT. Yup a novelty through and through, but then watches should be fun and this is without a doubt. Brilliant and thanks for reviewing it Jody, I shall be looking out for a flipper erm… I mean pre-owned specimen. 😉
Must say that your new studio is just so beautiful and fantastic! 😊👍🏻

I'm digging the shirt AND the watch!

Dunno about the watch, but I'm in for your t-shirt! 👍
Moon Swatch! I laughed out loud. 😂😂😂
Getting stormtrooper vibes especially the strap 😂
Those spare links 😂... I love it. Not the craziest price too, it's really cool.
I love this piece! So unique!
That watch is hilarious, it made me smile. I'd have one in my collection, but at $60, not $200.
👍 Quite refreshing. I think it would make an excellent (occasional) wear. A bit of fun, that would spark a few conversations.
Thanks for reviewing this watch! Very interesting watch.
Love the shirt, Jody!
This is a Swatch competitor. I do like it.
I’d love to see it as a wall clock too!
That said, I own a banana made of cement. Banana Concrete. 🍦
This is incredible. I would wear this to a hungover breakfast at chateau Marmont for sure. Love it.
I’m a Kid in a candy store for this video, thought this thing was neat and the t shirt 👍🏼yes
I love it. I'm not going to get one, but pretty neat. Polycarbonate is pretty durable but I highly doubt that the rubber coating and printing will be able to take much abuse.

hii! is the painting or ,,sketch" durable? does it come off easy?
Your T-shirt is perfect as usual. I love the watch!
These are so cool! I love the 3D effect. This takes my Timex x Keith Haring easy reader to the next level!
that is actually a very cool watch
Its interesting and I sort of want to try it, but I seriously doubt it would be something I would wear often or be a long term keeper.
Reminds me of the Ahha video "Take me on or Take on me? 😂
I like it.
It's a statement piece and a 'don't take myself too seriously watch'. I would giggle to myself every time I see it on my wrist, and it would probably be the only watch in my collection that anyone notices, to be honest.

Cool, fun n quirky a definite 🎉🥳piece
I bought mine today and I am really looking forward to it. It's the logical predecessor of my Casio GA-2100MNG "Manga".

Luvvin' that "T" Jody............... says it all............... Oh, brill video as usual....... have a great weekend Mate.
I like it! I would definitely wear this if I were still a teenager.
Don't know what I was thinking but I just ordered the Sketch in white. What's your impression about its durability now that you've had it a while? You think it'll hold up?
Great review, Jody!
Yeah, kind of neat looking, but I'd be really worried about that print wearing off. I'm kind of rough on my watchbands, though. my wheelchair wheel always rubs them, and I don't think this would last more than a couple of days on my wrist. Even for a novelty watch, that wouldn't make me a happy camper.
It's a cartoon watch, Jodi! Perfect for wearing by Pop Eye, one of the Simpsons or Dracula and Frakenstein. Kind Regards, Dave
I think it is a fun watch. Every watch club should buy one and pass it around to members for a bit of fun.
I saw someone else mention the movie Tron . I can see it and I really like it.
They are back in stock, just ordered one 😅
White or black?
@@aw2242 white
It really does look like you are wearing a piece of paper on wrist. Really nice effect.
A good friend of mine has spray painted 2 cars to look like they are drawings, and like this watch, I can appreciate them but wouldn't want it for myself.
Interesting; looks like it was created in Balsamiq, which is an app used for low-rez UI prototyping.
I think this watch escaped from the 80’s mtv video by the one hit wonder A-ha,the black and white hand-sketched one,”take on me”
Oh, I was waiting for the usual pocketshot. It would've been interesting to see it with a casual outfit.
Is there a plan to bring it back for future videos?
I've heard of a seagull automatic chronograph are starting to pop up, you have to review one. I've seen them for 400 to 600 which is insane.
Ha I was wondering if you’d review this. I think this is quite a step above novelty-maybe “concept” is more accurate. Lets face it , the watch industry is VERY conservative design wise so this kind of watch is welcome. I like it and would definitely wear it.Great review as usual
Looks cool! I definitely won't buy it but I thoroughly enjoyed the review 👍
I like it it looks like something out of an 80s rock video or the old 60s Batman series
I'm not going to lie.....I'm a HUGE fan!!!
I still think that you should do a video showcasing your t-shirts collection!!
I think it’s bloody brilliant!
Pre-ordered the Gshock CasiOak Manga Theme instead for cheaper price.
Would look great in the summer with white trainers and a white T-shirt
I kind of like this for a novelty piece…waaay better than the moon swatch
I like this watch! Seems difficult to get hold of, though.
I think it’s cool. Thank you for making me aware of the watch.
I love it so much. I would never wear it because I’d want to keep it pristine. It’s a real Catch-22.
I think its fun like most Swatch. It would be even better at the price with a Timex Indiglo movement
I really hope that they’re making an automatic version of these.
I actually love it. I'll pick a homage version up for $20 when they eventually hit aliexpress.
Visually, it is a looker takes me back to primary school and my drawings ..
Loved the look and thought it was fun ... but "quartz" wasn't mentioned until 4:27? I'm not necessarily a quartz vs auto snob, but it is nice to know that little detail from the get-go.
I guess seeing sub $200 2 minutes in would have been another clue ...
Not into it but I watch every video beginning to end. I hope to see you in a future video! haha
I think I would have to be reading a Far Side cartoon to wear this watch.
That’s a little too “out there” in design for my collection but I see the appeal in the look as a more unique PRX lookalike. I just received the new LumTec Combat B58 GMT in and WOW do you need to give this timepiece a review.

The funniest watch ever reviewed. I love it
That’s a very niche watch. I don’t think I would ever get enough wear out of it to justify the cost. Many more compelling options for $195. But kudos to them for doing something different.
I definitely prefer the PRX in paper, who knew!
I am both happy this watch is getting some much deserved attention. But I am also sad it will continue being impossible to get 😢
