This isn't to say they're not good watches. Design-wise they're attractive and channel the Polerouter well. The main reason I'm not interested is the hubbub around them. I don't like the sales model, the frenzy upon launch of each iteration, and the almost immediate dumping on sales platforms. Just to stress that this is not to single out this particular case. There are plenty of watches to avoid on account of the noise surrounding them.
