Notice the minute hand, crafted into a graceful treble clef

Something tells me that won't be in Rotty's collection.

It's not expensive enough

Talk about milking the cow.

Sticking pictures of him on it make it tacky.

ewwwww

Id imagine there would be a fair few more Tribute Watches to be seen!

I've got to admit I only looked in here expecting to find some rehashing of the "what time is it when the big hand touches the little hand" joke.

I'm mildly surprised they've actually made the watch so quickly and yet not all that surprised which disappoints me to think I half expected a cynical cash in.

that is one hell of an ugly watch

Strife212 · 10 Jul 2009 at 22:17

It must have taken them literally minutes to craft such a detailed tribute item.

"No one is buying the Betty Boop watches any more, what can we do?"
"Rip out the old pictures and print some of Michael Jackson and increase the price by £20"
"Good idea"

Exactly what I thought. It looks cheap and tacky. The timing is wholly inappropriate too.

I'm a huge fan but I won't be buying this rubbish. My Casio is fine.

Feek · 10 Jul 2009 at 22:59

These things actually will become huge collectors items and end up being worth thousands.

The reason?

It's simple.

They'll only sell five of them!

HeeroUk · 10 Jul 2009 at 23:00

No doubt people will rush to buy it

simisker · 10 Jul 2009 at 23:08

The Danbury name isn't the guarantee of quality it once was

^TANK^ · 10 Jul 2009 at 23:21

Ta ta ta tacky as sin tbh.
