Would you wear this?

N/C for this.

DD - fortunately adult - was browsing the Swatch watches site and was looking at their pages of art where you can choose a section of a design or old master to have as the design on your watchstrap.
Great idea.

Not sure about this "art" design though.

@IfIHadAPenny

That's not what I got in the link

CSIblonde · 18/10/2019 16:19

It looks cheap & it's a tacky idea. The art student concerned doodled genitalia basically: how very 'artistic'. What demographic do they think would buy this? Reg, Curly's Supermarket manager boss from Corrie years back springs to mind.

TateWorm · 18/10/2019 16:20

I got the black and white swirls from the link too. Couldn't work out what was wrong with it other than it giving me a headache. I understand now I've seen the other posts though!

RainWoman19 · 18/10/2019 16:20

Ha yes I would..gives me Korean vibes and I love the style of fashion. So yes from me 😊

Purpleartichoke · 18/10/2019 16:21

Maybe to a nightclub?

Winteriscomingfast · 18/10/2019 16:31

Oh no. Boobs and willies. Won't someone think of the children.

They are not boobs?

Warpdrive · 18/10/2019 16:38

I can see a hand holding something looks like a boomerang but in this context must be a dildo.

No I wouldn't wear it.

JulieRat · 18/10/2019 16:46

I kind of almost like it in an arty way (more the big square pic) - and also hate it as a watch. Agree with WatchIsThis that it looks like the kind of willies kids draw themselves. The bumholes are kind of funny but the female bits are more gross somehow.

No I wouldn't wear it but I like minimalist watches. If someone did wear it I'd imagine them to be an arty type who works on Dazed & Confused or something.

StrangeLookingParasite · 18/10/2019 16:59

Does it play 'Yackety Sax' as well?

TypingoftheDead · 18/10/2019 17:05

I wouldn't wear it even if I did still wear watches. I'm not a prude, but this strikes me as trying too hard to be funny/cheeky. It's just bizarre.
I do like the idea of being able to have part of an old Master painting on my wrist, however.

Noroof · 18/10/2019 17:08

I thought it looked like cartoon mice. They need little lines of jazz coming out the end to be authentic (teacher and have seen many drawings of little nobs over the years)

Noroof · 18/10/2019 17:08

*jizz obv. Not jazzHmm

SchadenfreudePersonified · 18/10/2019 17:14

Eeeeeeew!

No!

puppyconfetti · 18/10/2019 17:15

I wouldn't wear it, it's not my style. Tbh if children are of an age where they can be internet shopping alone I think they are of age where they can handle some cartoon boobies

user1473878824 · 18/10/2019 17:17

Why did you bother to name change for this? In case it was hugely outing...? Woman looks at website. Confused

Louiselouie0890 · 18/10/2019 17:20

Opens up a black and white watch for me, wondered what the big fuss was about at first

itputsthelotiononitsskin · 18/10/2019 17:21

The fact that so many people get hung up on the mere existence of genitals that spend most of their time tucked away, minding their own business, is (I imagine) exactly why the artist chose to focus on them, and why I found it chucklesome.

It's not sexual. They are comical and cartoony. They are non threatening and amusing.

If this is the worst that a child is going to happen upon when browsing the net, you're living a blessed existence.

Honestly the pearl clutching is making me actually quite fond of this design. Shame I don't need a new watch.

BlueJava · 18/10/2019 17:23

I wouldn't wear it - doesn't really work in a professional client-facing role. But I wouldn't be concerned/upset by it, just looks a bit cheap and immature.

MissPepper8 · 18/10/2019 17:23

Is that bumholes and willies wtaf? No not for me but it wouldn't bother me.

Winteriscomingfast · 18/10/2019 17:25

some cartoon boobies

which image are you looking at?

Surely the pastel ones are penis and then clitoris, vulva and labia? Not boobs?

Thegracefuloctopus · 18/10/2019 17:25

Is that a cock watch?!! Wtf!!!

Winteriscomingfast · 18/10/2019 17:27

Not boobs

Would you wear this?
TateWorm · 18/10/2019 17:29

Are the bottom left things (above the bums) not weird dangly boobs?

Winteriscomingfast · 18/10/2019 17:34

Big yellow one is 2 bottom cheeks with pink anus?
Others are surely clitoris (black or pink circle) , vulva (pink circle) and labia (yellow oval)?

I can't see a boob?

labazsisgoingmad · 18/10/2019 17:36

different not very practical and def for adults
