The first watch looks to cluttered which makes the
legibility of the registers difficult to read.

The second watch is much cleaner looking.

I agree with Simon the olympic rings register cluster is way too busy. I do like the little olympic ring logo on the tail of the second hand. It is a little gimicky but i like it.  A watch similar to second one  has been featured in some OMEGA television spots during the broadcasts.

I agree, these novelty watches are not supposed to be everything to everyone.  Just fun to have or lust after...like the bond watches...

I saw all those when I went through Kuwait International Airport back in May. They're all VERY nice looking.
