I think this falls into the category.....

That is a classic! Another TV dial that would also slot in to the funky 70's vibe, currently away with Simon Freese hopefully working his magic, turned out to be not such a good purchase but hopefully will come good in the end even if I will have overspent on it.

Hamilton Electrics define “funky” when dealing with watches. Ventura, and Everest.

I love the Ventura, one of my coworkers has one and it's such a near piece. No wonder elvis liked it

That Hamilton is so cool, it's like a subdued Monaco. Is it a cal11 movement?

Anything by Lip probably qualifies.

Do you happen to know the reference? Lip is such a neat brand, didn't know about it until I met some French collectors.

That one looks like an arcade game machine

It's a Lip Mach 2000 "The Dark Master" - even the name is over the top!

Here's a member with one:

This can be considered a 'funky' watch back?? 😀
