I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that, but surely nobody thinks this is a looker. It's also the busiest and most ludicrously overpriced ($950,000!) watch I think I've ever seen.



Here's the eBay link.

All RM watches are weird looking, they have a boutique in the crystals mall in Vegas, I cant say any of them look nice.

Even if i had the money I cant see the attraction, even as a £1k novelty not sure i would.

I had a transparent Swatch "Jellyfish" back in the eighties, it was pretty dire.

Plus, you’d put it down and be in danger of never finding it again…

I was bored, so I counted the markings on the bezel and dial. A total of 265 separate markings - what an absolute dog's dinner of a watch. Virtually unreadable (like a lot of RM atrocities...)

Still - could be worse....

Looking at the sellers feedback on eBay there’s a good chance you would never get it in the first place either

These things and RM both look like they have spent some time teetering on the brink of a raft of 2ps in an arcade in Skegness.

It's not beautiful, but I'd enjoy owning and wearing that.

MB&F are amazing little time machines. They may be aesthetically challenging but they’re exquisite and fascinating close up.

I’ve not seen a Richard Mille up close but would imagine them to be the same although I’d prefer an MB&F every time.

Ugliest? The leopard skin Rolex takes some beating but those oversized Uboat watches are hideous.
