This is the next “face” that has been released/or soon to be released. I have the Joker, it’s a fun watch and really something fresh both in the gen and rep world of watches. Looks like I am gonna buy this this one as well

Yup, Dracula will be next :nana:

The Dracula, if I am not mistaken has a bit modified movement with the small teeth coming out at certain hrs, hopefully that will be done properly if they do decide to replicate that version as well

The orange bezel annoys me!

I am with you on this.

But I am also confused, as some pictures show it with a red ring, and some show it as having an orange ring.

As the owner of the Joker (green) I am on the fence, as think the original is best.

And not sure why some pics show this as red, and others as orange.

And about the pink versions......well.....

Glad to see there’s a lot of interest in this watch. I began to think I was the only one seriously contemplating about buying one. As far as the orange ring... it’s all angle and light. Even the picture with the orange ring (above) shows the image was rendered from an image with bright lights (tongue and eyes are being hit with a lot of light).


Big_Pilot hows the AR on the gen? Looks good from videos but I think the reps are lacking in that aspect.



Heres the rep from a CN dealer.

I have to be honest I saw a gen yesterday while watch shoppong, and I just don't get the draw. I figured it may be one of those things in person but still confused by it, especially in gen. That said wear it with fun guys.

Just to be clear, I don't own the Gen, I own the Rep of the Joker (Green). A great piece.

Do not worry about AR and other small details, as the watch is more an art piece than a piece to tell exact time on. When wearing my Joker I use my iPhone for correct hour readings. The Joker is giving an approximation of time. :)

The crystal is great although thick, so at very shallow viewing angles it become slightly milky as you look against the edge of the crystal.

But again, not an issue to leave the watch on the shelve.

Order one, and it will put a smile on your face whenever you wear it.

As stated before, I had expected to receive more comments from friends or colleagues but it is remarkable quiet when wearing.

People look, but rarely comment.

I mostly wear it on Friday.....as to start my weekend with a smile.

Probably will not order the Clown version. It doesn't do it for me. The orange/red ring just makes me cringe.

Looking at the mentioned vid:

http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNDEzMj...156c0688a68fe6

I see that the orange/red dial ring problem is not there. The bezel ring is red, and dependent on lighting conditions shows up as orange in the different pictures.

With the dial ring being red I might have to order this piece too. Not because I like it so much, but just to complete my Chaykin collection. :)

^I saw a couple of photos where the eyes were rounded when they released the latest ones, but having a quick google they may have been showing gen ones.

Shame as it is a funky fun watch.
