Seen them in a few pictures now, they look like some toy Transformer watch a kid would wear...does it turn into something that I don't know about?

They are made by Gene and he has a company called Poubd Foolish. They custom make them to your boat or boat brand etc. a lot of people like them quite a bit.

I'm not a watch person, but I respect the guy that makes them and his diligence in making a quality product.

Who's Gene? Is he a member here?

Looks really heavy.
Back when I did wear watches I had something that weighed nearly nothing.

It probably has quartz movement... disposable crap. You can get this hand made auto for the same price.

while im not a fan of the style i do support someone creating their own product thats extremely personalized for their customers. sure its $1800 but go ask rolex how much it would cost just to put a custom face on one of their watches...

I have 2 watches that each cost about $600 and both tell the time in multiple countries and do 1,000 other things...





Watches are so yesterday

isn't there a cartoon where the watch just like that does something super magical and the wearer changes into a superhero?

My three year old doesn't watch many cartoons other than a few like paw patrol. OHHHHH, its like the puptags!!!!!
Does it light up and talk to you when your boss needs your help on a new "mission" to save adventure bay? Or this case Havasu?

I’m the same way. I think it’s great he created a product, machines the product in house and is succeeding. They aren’t for everyone but everyone I know that has them loves them.

I generally don’t wear watches or I’d get the smaller version from him.

That's hilarious. You can get some top quality watches for that price...You couldn't pay me that to wear one of those bulky square watches.

They make a round dial watch also. It is an interesting marketing concept, more power to him I say.

I think you get a boat matches one now with every new dcb, last I heard Eliminator was considering the same marketing angle.

I tried one, I have chick wrists, couldn’t deal with the heft of the thing even with the smaller version they have. That and I have a few Rolex’s in my safe and have not worn them in years, just don’t do the watch thing anymore.

Pound Foolish is an interesting name to say the least. So you buy a big ass watch for $1800 bucks so you can say you're foolish?o_O

Just clarifying here, but didn't you just say you were going to purchase a pink pussy hat this year, and are now calling someone that buys a watch foolish because of the branding?

I don't think you wear a watch like that to tell time.

How funny, I ran into this guy recently. His shop is right next door to my engine builder. I was waiting for him to show up to pick up my engine and he was outside and we chatted a bit. Seemed like a cool dude.
