Respect, this is a very unique collections. But I'm surprised he doesn't have 2000s Oakley watches.

Holy 2000, batman!
Love this collection. Garish, and personally totally off-putting, but there is nothing better than seeing someone find something they truly love and going full send on it. These watches were designed to be exactly what they are, not to have mass appeal, and I'm so happy they found the right owner.
Do his plates and cups have this pattern?

Not gonna lie I kinda hate it... But in a good way 😅
He has very specific tastes and they're just too "90's organic brushed steel to me" like I wouldn't mind having one of these but it's too much for me.
The Nike Triax is pretty rad tho
Oh but honestly I like the fact that he knows what he likes and the choice is cohesive, maybe even a bit too much (ok I'll shut up now 😅).
Also they're not hideous, I didn't explain well. I do like some of them and tbf it is a interesting style, we need more original stuff.
Also, I don't remember seeing one in the collection but maybe he'll like the Yema Rallygraf Cobra (very alien-like).
Millennium aesthetic.
The cool thing about it is it's optimism: we wanted things that looked futuristic because the future was so damn exciting.
Cut to 2024....
My wife bought me one of these. It seemed messed up from the beginning and the rubber band broke apart in pieces. I didn’t even get to wear it half a dozen times…
Does he also own a metal stick with a red laser at the end by any chance?

Could you ask your friend which watch has the green backlight
1 nike triax has different styles

He needs a watch that comes in a flying saucer
I think the company is called Radio Yota. I don’t know anything about the brand, I just saw one in an auction and I always remember the watch box was a 1960s style flying saucer. When I was just looking for a picture, the other models listed all have a bit of a retro sci-fi look to them
A lot of personality which is so much more fun than just buying what other people recommend (which is what I did lol).
I wouldn’t normally suggest this as it is so niche, but he might like the look of the Bulova Computron.
What a hoarder, leave some for the rest of us!
These are *the* streetwear watch of the moment with all the y2k trend stuff going on, couple mates of mine have a Nike triax and Oakley version, very cool
I have always wanted a [Seiko Sportura SLQ007](https://www.keepthetime.com/product/seiko-sportura-slq007/). Your friend's collection scratches a similar itch but doesn't ever hit the exact spot. Very cool collection, nonetheless.
That would be the SLQ009 and it's even more sought after. The 007 is made of stainless steel which, although not as scratch resistant, I prefer the look of. And, you know, it's got 007 in the reference number. The name's Sportura, Seiko Sportura.
It’s funny I almost bought a sportura not too long ago but I ended up going with a titanium ball engineer 2 rainbow instead. Really cool watch, but the sport yea would have less utility in my line of work
Not sure what his budget is but have him check out this.
[this](https://atowak.com/collections/spaceship). The watch is by atowak and is spaceship inspired. Has pretty cool movement too.
That is the ugliest collection I have ever seen. Good on him for knowing what he likes though.
I hope he has a pair of Oakley speed dealer sunnies to wear with those watches
Most of those are not my taste, but I am so stoked that your friend has found his taste in watches and the confidence to flaunt it! Banger collection, definitely someone who knows what they want and wear with joy! 🔥👽⌚
Seeing all those watches in one clump just converts to a Winamp skin in my head haha

What's that in the middle?...a friend of mine had that when we where kids
That's one ambivalent feeling. It's going between 'this is ugly as hell' and 'this guy knows his style'. Perhaps some Hamilton Ventura as a (for him) formal watch
Very unique to him. Personally the only one I would wear is the Hamilton. That watch is pretty cool. Others are too much for me. But highly respect the uniqueness he has
I would not argue with you if you tell me that he is the terminator.
He's kinda obsessed with that lol
Respect, this is a very unique collections. But I'm surprised he doesn't have 2000s Oakley watches. https://preview.redd.it/ucm1t5wlqtec1.jpeg?width=678&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e4fb250836682293addfa400c987b348e9ddccb8
Wow this is very cool watch, i will forward this to him
I think oakley watches would very much be his style
These are perfect for your friend
Nu-metal summed up in a watch.
So true. And to be more precise Limp Bizkit
Oh I wanted one of those back in the day…
Not sure if anyone mentioned but also Atowak Spaceship https://preview.redd.it/q457ud4wq0fc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9875f01de18b353e2386ef1d4f052dc4873b1726
Holy 2000, batman! Love this collection. Garish, and personally totally off-putting, but there is nothing better than seeing someone find something they truly love and going full send on it. These watches were designed to be exactly what they are, not to have mass appeal, and I'm so happy they found the right owner.
dude being inspired so much with this designs to own alot of them
You gotta take it easier on those butts, my guy
Watches are pretty personal. If those pieces rock his world, that's fantastic. Do it your way, dude. That's the only way.
Do his plates and cups have this pattern? https://preview.redd.it/aiddwpgebuec1.jpeg?width=421&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=825e4e78d699f88414563692ec7f36ffb999d4c0
He does have this pattern on his shirt lol
https://abcnews.go.com/Lifestyle/internet-freaking-finding-designer-90s-jazz-cup/story?id=32006647
Appreciate the link
This shit plastic? Would never drink anythkng from plastic lol
If so what does it mean?
Not gonna lie I kinda hate it... But in a good way 😅 He has very specific tastes and they're just too "90's organic brushed steel to me" like I wouldn't mind having one of these but it's too much for me. The Nike Triax is pretty rad tho
I will have to convince him to have a normal watch lol
Oh but honestly I like the fact that he knows what he likes and the choice is cohesive, maybe even a bit too much (ok I'll shut up now 😅). Also they're not hideous, I didn't explain well. I do like some of them and tbf it is a interesting style, we need more original stuff. Also, I don't remember seeing one in the collection but maybe he'll like the Yema Rallygraf Cobra (very alien-like).
And happy cake day btw ! 🥳
Show him the GM-2100B-4A, seems right up his alley
He needs like a Timex Weekender on a hemp strap in there lol.
Millennium aesthetic. The cool thing about it is it's optimism: we wanted things that looked futuristic because the future was so damn exciting. Cut to 2024....
That nike with the yellow buton was my favorite watch as a kid
Missing Seiko kinetic https://preview.redd.it/pxqqybjepuec1.jpeg?width=514&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=556f7f7a7bfb6972ebec1f8a90f028bb42f30daa
Seiko Kinetic was my first nice watch back in the the early 2000’s, still got it, still love it.
Yep I got one too. Kind of messed it up trying to remove the weird armored rubber bracelet.
Same for me, but the strap deteriorated for me over the first couple years.
My wife bought me one of these. It seemed messed up from the beginning and the rubber band broke apart in pieces. I didn’t even get to wear it half a dozen times…
He definitely seems like an Arctura guy.
Does he also own a metal stick with a red laser at the end by any chance? https://preview.redd.it/7jo4wc05euec1.jpeg?width=203&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=edcd4907527f2e791d1c47a800fb6a93273e4854
His pocket watch maybe.
I have one from when I went on the ride back in the day.
Who?!
Does he have an omega z-33 space master? https://preview.redd.it/d0xrz0a33vec1.jpeg?width=1072&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=262c4b5f6f9a807b055c463b165495c744092be5
Of course not. They're all shit.
This is very much not for me, but I find it incredibly cool that this collection exists.
Sums it up perfectly!
This guy is stuck in his Y2K/frutiger aero phase
A better time 😔
We were 2 years old at that time lol
Ah! It's rooted in your DNA
Good post, more interesting than people posting collections that have same old khakis, 5s and submariners.
These are some of the ugliest watches I’ve ever seen. Good for him
This one would fit right in. https://preview.redd.it/ecgzvsazyuec1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=a15e052feb7a8730f306229f1a005a75595b34b5
Very cool piece

Big Spy Kids energy
Well, he has a type :)
I’m guessing your friend has frosted tips and wears No Fear t-shirts too eh
Dude has his own style and taste, respect
All very cool watches!(except for the hublot of course 🤢)
Lol this dude doesn't care at all, he just wanted to own a Hublot
Said the guy that is buying rep sneakers and wont be able to afford a Hublot in a lifetime lol
I think they’re hideous but he’s into what he’s into and doesn’t give a shit what other people are doing and that’s way more rad than my shit opinion
Its time. Morphin time.

I'm sorry Dave I can't do that.
I remember these weird ass watches and wanted every one of them growing up. I’d love to own one of these
Sick
This guy Spoons
Dude has a type! Haha
Not my bag, but definitely fun
Casual hublot ?
The Hamilton PSR is cool
Definitely the weirdest collection I've seen in a while
https://preview.redd.it/cw53e9r5bvec1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dc75140fd6a9b79e4079840bca117c46073332f9 He needs a watch that comes in a flying saucer
What is that ?
I think the company is called Radio Yota. I don’t know anything about the brand, I just saw one in an auction and I always remember the watch box was a 1960s style flying saucer. When I was just looking for a picture, the other models listed all have a bit of a retro sci-fi look to them
All of these watches look like Daft Punk.
Exactly,, how did you even come up with that idea ? Its so true
Most unique collection on Reddit
A lot of personality which is so much more fun than just buying what other people recommend (which is what I did lol). I wouldn’t normally suggest this as it is so niche, but he might like the look of the Bulova Computron.
I’m… in love?
Meet George Jetson, his boy Elroy, and daughter Judy.
Good theme. A nice collection. Way better than "here are my 10 expensive watches"
I imagine your friend has and still wears these sunglasses: https://assets.vogue.com/photos/60f0a195c61393e033a42d67/master/w_1600%2Cc_limit/ato.jpg
I used to think those were the pinnacle of cool 😄
I'm glad he's happy with them
No one going to mention this person's extremely long fingers? Did he play spender man in the live action films?
While not my style, I’m glad he has found a style of watch he really enjoys.
These look like spykids watches. Floop is a madman help us save us!
https://preview.redd.it/z1itij0reyec1.jpeg?width=1190&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3af5db0ee04257ce927967a84bd300563ead5761 Does he look like this?
I think 'yuck' but to each his own. What is that poor Hublot doing in the middle of that?
I don't say 'gross' often, but when I do, oh my dear god.
Spy kids looking watches.
Hideous
Yo that's fuckin sick
Beam me up, Scotty!
rules
Obscure but very cool, particularly after removing the coating on some of them.
What a hoarder, leave some for the rest of us! These are *the* streetwear watch of the moment with all the y2k trend stuff going on, couple mates of mine have a Nike triax and Oakley version, very cool
Do you know their model numbers or what they're called?
I absolutely love these. Takes me back to High School!
They look like that vilian from the new Aquaman movie.
Not for me
Who did he give all his Oakley sunglasses too?
He certainly has a type.
Missing omega x33
I envision him vaping...
I have always wanted a [Seiko Sportura SLQ007](https://www.keepthetime.com/product/seiko-sportura-slq007/). Your friend's collection scratches a similar itch but doesn't ever hit the exact spot. Very cool collection, nonetheless.
That the jay Leno titanium?
That would be the SLQ009 and it's even more sought after. The 007 is made of stainless steel which, although not as scratch resistant, I prefer the look of. And, you know, it's got 007 in the reference number. The name's Sportura, Seiko Sportura.
It’s funny I almost bought a sportura not too long ago but I ended up going with a titanium ball engineer 2 rainbow instead. Really cool watch, but the sport yea would have less utility in my line of work
Love your taste. Ball makes some very cool watches.
Thanks for the info on the serials too!
Now I want a watch that doubles as a spoon 🥄 🤔
Not sure what his budget is but have him check out this. [this](https://atowak.com/collections/spaceship). The watch is by atowak and is spaceship inspired. Has pretty cool movement too.
Very cool watch, i looks like a spaceship on wrist, but 2k is quite sour
Your friend certainly knows what he likes!
This dude needs a Casquette.
Way to stand out! Funny when a Hublot is the most normal-looking watch in a collection.
Haha totally agreed
nike triax and hamilton 💯
I want that hamilton!
Dude has a type
This is so fucked lmaoo
Wow this is actually kinda wild
Here come the Men in Black
I absolutely hate it for myself, but it’s kind of dope in a unique way if it fits his style. Cool post
hell yeah
I’ve got the middle one on the first picture. This thing eats batteries like nobody’s business ! Not even worth it to keep her running ahah
Reminds me of some of Issey Miyake's watches. Very weird, very cool.
Is he in MIB?
I love that somebody loves these watches
Looks like a watch collection that’s themed after Spy Kids franchise films.
Love that he honors what he likes and finds it! He needs an Ikepod tho
That is the ugliest collection I have ever seen. Good on him for knowing what he likes though. I hope he has a pair of Oakley speed dealer sunnies to wear with those watches
I love a funky watch. Agreed with other commenters on the Oakley watches. Tremblay had some crazy designs and I want one.
Bro from the future
Not really for me, but interesting
It’s cool thats he’s got so many takes on the large future watch. I’m impressed for real
Nice Hublot.
sus amogus
I’m convinced you found it in a storage unit from 2003
Does your friend come in peace from Mars? I'll definitely give him credit for having a style and sticking to it, which is cool in its own right.
Your friend is a robot.
The style in the early 2000s was coined “Blobjects”. Very apt. Some of those Seiko Giugiaro designs are like this collection.
Amogus?
Most of those are not my taste, but I am so stoked that your friend has found his taste in watches and the confidence to flaunt it! Banger collection, definitely someone who knows what they want and wear with joy! 🔥👽⌚
I totally think it’s subjective. Not for me though
Seeing all those watches in one clump just converts to a Winamp skin in my head haha https://skins.webamp.org/skin/b0fb83cc20af3abe264291bb17fb2a13/Winamp5_Classified_v5.5.wsz/

Your friend has LONG hands
Is there any subreddit for this kind of aesthetic? Not only watches
This reminds me of the "Spy Kids".
Is his grail something like the GP Casquette?
Does your friend happen to only dress in a black suit and you occasionally leave his company with a sense that you’ve forgotten something?
Depending on what luck he’s going for I guess they will be nice… I like a more versatile watch collection these kind of all look the same
HA... I was thinking he needs the hamilton PSR for his dressy watch then I got to the 4th pic
That's one ambivalent feeling. It's going between 'this is ugly as hell' and 'this guy knows his style'. Perhaps some Hamilton Ventura as a (for him) formal watch
Very unique to him. Personally the only one I would wear is the Hamilton. That watch is pretty cool. Others are too much for me. But highly respect the uniqueness he has
Go go power rangers
Nice Hublot
Hell yeah
Ugly asf, to each his own I guess
Hes got a style and he sticks to it. Only one I'd judge him for is the Hublot lmao
TIL I am a watch snob
Pretty fool and unique collection Except for the Hublot
I’m not even sure if you can call this a collection. More of a hoard. But hey, whatever floats your boat!
Yucky
Did he leave you those when he got locked up in the asylum?
been looking for that nike Triax armored for a while, what a nice collection.
Horrible… it’s that simple.
Kinda garbage collection
This is the most Doctor Who watch collection I’ve ever seen. Never thought that could be a category. This is not a derogatory comment lol
I don't have to like it to respect it
What’s the red face analog at bottom right?
They look like amogles!
Happy Cake Day
Blobject looking things. Mans has a type for sure.
He definitly has A style.
