Icetek Spinner Watch

Here in Los Angeles, I get to see lots of people with spinning rims on the wheels of their cars. If you love the look of spinning rims you can get the same effect for your wrist. The Icetek Spinner watch has a center disc that moves with motion causing the white diamonds on the spinners, crown, case and bezel to attract all sorts of attention. The watch is available with a black lacquer or white mother-of-pearl dial and comes with both a rubber tire strap and a leather strap. It has 4.5 carats worth of diamonds and sells for $5,000.

i've seen those in KC already for quite sometime. as in a couple of YEARS. and they're pretty popular on military bases, too. for the fakes they use CZ and any other clear crystals they can get their hands on for it. so at this point, i mark this trend passe. damn, LA. you're so late on this. shame.....

A watch just needs to tell time. Thats it.

Why get diamonds on it? It doesn't make it any better

Shouldn't it be 3 times bigger so even people 6 blocks away can see what bad taste you have ????

Carole Oct 13th 2006 2:54PM

Bad taste is getting sooooooooo expensive!

Very nice for a piece of jewelry but come on, men wearing diamonds is just plain tacky.

Bad behavior, bad taste, bad everything. I just loved the day that Mr. T (remember him???) went to New Orleans after Katrina did her thing, took off his BLING, and swore off it in favor of HUMANITY. Shame to whomever even lusts for this piece of crap watch.

What the hell? For $5000.00 this thing needs to do a song and dance and wash my dishes. This thing is just plain ugly! How much better is time with a watch like this?

what a waste of money this is....but nowhere in the story did I see that it was for men only. Either way its a waste of good money for something noone would really see anyway. I mean, I dont make it a point to look at someones watch when I meet them or are speaking to them...just plain idiotic

Men wearing diamonds is tacky? Please...

Rolex has several models out that incorporate diamonds into their mens watches and they look very elegant and sophisticated. Now, mean wearing that many diamonds as seen on this watch IS tacky...

While this watch does seem like it would satisfy even the most insecure person's need for attention, there's no color contrast for the hands. I can barely see them on the photo shown, to me it appears the one thing this watch wouldn't be good for is telling the time of day.

I'm perfectly happy with my Omega Seamaster. There are many watches out there that are much more expensive, but, I like the Omega. I wear it daily, dive with it, play, whatever. They can keep the tacky "Bling Spinner" for those who crave the attention. I can think of many high end watches that I'd rather have than that diamond hubcap. Breitling quality definitely comes to mind . Rolex in my opinion is highly over rated in some areas but, always attractive and elegant.
