For me, the Pokemon watch was nice... I liked it when I wore it.
To be frank, I'm not fan of this type of topic. The "worst" watch could be the watch somebody likes. It is just a matter of taste. Or we can talk about engineering failures, design mistakes (for example a non legible scale) or some other objective downsides... and in that case the discussion could become interesting.

For fun: What do you think is the worst watch ever made?
I'm going to throw in my vote for this abomination: the Romain Jerome Pokemon Tourbillon I usually don't like to hate on watches, but this is one of the select few that I would actually wish out of existence is possible. I remember Tim Mosso once talking ...
The 1159 isn't to my taste either, but I don't think it comes anywhere close to touching "worst watch ever made"
Some other candidates I can think of: Richard Mille erotic tourbillon Moritz Grossmann Trump watch ...
Imagine if President Trump was ever caught wearing that RM erotic tourbillon
CNN would quite literally burst into flames!
And let's open this up to bastardized watches as well!
Example: Mayweather's iced-out casio ...

And in this way I feel sorry for all these multi-billionaires. Whether it’s blinging out a Casio or dropping 31 million on a Patek, it strikes me as an attempt to find the next “high”, but I imagine the feeling of euphoria is a fleeting one. NickO
I actually liked that RJ ...
... the ones I hate are the Titanic series, too much profiting off the dead for my taste. A brand I usually really hate is Jacob and Co. I'll single out this one (from the web obviously), not just for the absurd conspicuous consumption but also for the ge...
Wow....just wow.....
I didn't actually think that anyone was going to be able to top the RJ when I made this post. But if you put a gun to my head, didn't allow me to choose having my brains blown out as an option, and forced me to wear one of these watches, I might actually ...
I thought of another one, and it’s controversial...
....I described the WG Pepsi GMT that came out a few years back as ‘an abomination’. Maybe ‘worst watch of all time’ is hyperbolic, but I remember finding it really disappointing. It struck me as very cynical.
Oh I think the vulgar RICHARD MILLE takes the “$4it cake” here!
Undisputed champion of awfulness 👍🏻😜
I don't particularly hate that Poekmon piece until I consider that its a nutty expensive tourbillion, at that point it seems off base. Maybe if it was a $2000 Azimuth I'd get it ....
Surely Jacob & Co has numerous contenders! But I've also run across a few Zenith Defy pieces that made me gag. I have a boxing enthusiast cousin who keeps yapping about Mayweather's amazing collection. I keep trying to help him "get it" with horology....

Hysterical Post...
... And you are 100% correct. But the lighting bolt bridge for the tourbillon is kinda' cool.
Surprisingly, a lot of people are speaking out in favor of the RJ!
But I think we can all agree that the "iced-out-to-the-max" Jacob & Co. Snickers watch that donizetti posted wins this thread
