Best Watch Memes of 2024
We saw countless watch memes this year, many of which were pretty hilarious. Today, we decided to share six memes that made us laugh out loud. It was impossible to pick only five. Let’s fire up the interwebs and show you a few side-splitting watch memes.
First up, Patek Philippe put out their first new model in years, and frankly, it did not get much love from the watch community at first. Many hopped on the Cubitus hate bandwagon, especially following CEO Thierry Stern’s comment “the haters are mostly people who have never had a Patek, and never will.”
Second, we have a meme from @watch_taster that made us giggle. Smooth-bezel and Oyster Datejust owners beware.
Next up @chronohunter reminds us that our Rolex infatuation may affect some important life goals. Unfortunately, it’s funny because it’s true.
We love Rolex and think they crushed it with this year’s releases, but you can’t deny that the 2024 GMT-Master II with a grey and black bezel on a Jubilee bezel really does look like the Seiko GMT released months prior.
Next up, @watchumor connects the dots for us on how Tudor came up with the Black Bay Chrono 'Pink'. Jokes aside, this is a pretty great release from Tudor; see our hands-on with it here.
Lastly, a meme from the genius mind of our social media team: a simple reminder not to listen to your annoying uncle, who has an opinion about everything. Your annoying uncle may get extra annoying during the holidays, and he might tell you that watch collecting is dumb . . . guess what? He is an idiot.
In conclusion, let this serve as a reminder that the world of watch collecting doesn’t always have to be so serious—it’s not like we’re curing diseases or solving world hunger here (unless hoarding Rolexes counts as a public service). These memes prove that even in a hobby full of pomp and precision, there’s always room for a good laugh and a little self-deprecation.
So, the next time someone side-eyes your latest purchase or your uncle tells you watch collecting is a waste of money, just send them one of these memes and watch them crumble under the weight of their own lack of humor. Because at the end of the day, whether it’s Patek, Rolex, or a pink-dial Tudor Chrono, if it makes you happy and gives you a good laugh, that’s all that really matters. And if you still need convincing, well, let’s just say you can take that up with your annoying uncle. Good luck.
