Laugh of the Day

_________________________

The distinctive Invicta watches, with their classic dials and encased in one of the most beautiful metal cases ever to be seen are only the beginning of what will attract you to these, the most elegant of dress watches. Renowned for refined quality in every aspect of watch design and manufacturing, and in the business of distinctive watch-making, the Invicta Venom is literally a work of art for your wrist, with the name everyone with selective tastes turns to when looking for a distinguished elegant watch. Each well-designed stainless steel case represents a sculpted, almost one-of-a-kind classic beauty, produced with only the very best of materials available in the watch-making universe today. The watch in the Venom series is always associated with a sophisticated look and refined taste. This Invicta watch prominently features an easily seen, yet distinctive gold dial, with easy-to-read display, and is powered by a swiss chronograph movement, allowing a more accurate keeping of time beyond that of its nearest competitor. Special characteristics that make this one-of-a-kind watch stand out from the competition, are features like chronograph and tachymeter a list of top-of-the-line features usually found only on refined time pieces costing many thousands of dollars more. Steeped in the age-old tradition associated with all things elegant, dress watches literally complete your ensemble no matter who you are or what event you might be attending. Their clean lines and beautiful details command respect from those around you, saying volumes about who you are as a person, as a leader, and implying exactly what you stand for and believe. The integrity a dress watch purveys about itself announces to the world youâre to be respected. No watch says luxury with such quiet and understated elegance than a Invicta watch. The simple beauty of the brown silicone band paired with the stunning gold face speak volumes without screaming, âLook at me!❠This is a beautiful and quality addition to any wardrobe with its mineral crystal and 1000 meters / 3280 feet / 100 atm water resistance. The gratification you feel when you wear a Invicta timepiece is due to the timeless design and quality materials. From the sturdy mineral crystal to the sleek silicone band, this watch lets the world know you have arrived. The sleek design is accentuated by the gold dial and complements any wardrobe choice.

This is like one of those memes where people claim they fed a bot 1000 watch descriptions and this is what it spit out.
I wish that watch were 38mm?

This seemed the best thread to revive for this post.

Saw this Limited Edition Citizen and then couldn't unsee the cities listed.

Guessing the design process went like this:

Designer #1- "Hey, which font should we use for the world time bezel?"
Designer #2 - "I don't know...all of them?!?

I just so happen to be retooling a presentation on visual design. I will be including this image in a section at the end where I show that even the pros get it wrong sometimes, so they should learn and keep trying to do a little bit better each time.
