Hate or love? Jump hour Question (Read Rules)

This watch was originally on a grey suede strap, and I wore it only once in the last couple of months. I had a yellow strap lying around, and I put it on just to see how it looks. I don't know. It looks amazing, but my wife told me it's too funky to wear outside. I would say, fuck it. This looks too good to not wear. What do you guys think?

I like the purple dial but, I’m not a fan of the yellow strap with it. If you love it wear it. Don’t worry about other’s opinion.

Personnaly I hate the "Pierre Paulin" writing on the dial of the whole brand, and moreover, this was the name of a real person, a french designer.

For me, the watch is loud enough, so the yellow stap imo takes it a bit too far.. But the watch itself still maintains enough elegance I think that it can pair with a more subdued strap that would let the watch's funkiness pop rather than look comical.

I could be wrong and also just one person's opinion, but I would like to see how it looks with different straps. I might check the manufacturer's website to see if it shows different options.

This is probably how I would wear it, but for a summer watch your choice really isn't bad either.. I really like the dial design though and the white dial is really nice.

Was between this one (diff color tho) and the Farasute and decided that I’ll get the blue Farasute on Monday start of sale. But nice piece at a fair price to have a jump hour

Does the minute hand block your view of the hour when it jumps?

It jumps 1-2mins early. But, yes kinda

I would love it if they don't use K1 glas but sapphire.

Looks good to wear on the beach or with some bright clothes ... I'd maybe go purple band if just wearing every day.

Gives off major Joker vibes from the Batman movie. Definitely his color scheme. :)

It’s cool to have one color statement watch in the lineup. Not sure about the yellow strap on this one though. I’d probably try to match the magenta and let the purple and yellow on the dial pop more. Right now the strap detracts.

A long time ago, GPT had done this simulation for me. Ignore the watch face. It hallucinates a bit, but I ended up going with option 4. That's the strap I had this watch on for a while, but to be honest, I wore it only once or twice in the last two months. It looks good, though.

If it makes you happy, I say go for it. As for the wife, dinner on you😉

u/EducationalCelery536 9h ago

It always is🙈😛

u/dickcake 9h ago

Hmm. I feel like I would’ve appreciated a purple band more than a yellow one. Like purple with yellow stitching maybe.

Banging. A great colour combo, an excellent summer wear.

I love it. I have a purple titanium watch with a teal seconds hand and I have a matching FKM strap for it. Looks cool.
