Off-Topic: Cartier Dive Watch ? ? ?

This week is the SIHH (Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie), and marks the season for the introduction of many new watches from the participating brands. I believe that this Cartier dive watch was introduced some weeks ago (referred to as pre-SIHH), but I have to wonder whether anyone will stray further from the ideals of a "dive watch" or introduce a watch that is any uglier (at least to my eye).

I know, I know . . . people wear the watches for the style, and rarely actually use the tool features, but you just have to wonder what some designers are thinking. How many fonts can you find?
