Watches and cars... "these are a few of my favorite things!"
Planning on a 2016 F-type R for spring next year, but already have the watches to wear while driving.. Also have a couple Bremont watches on order that will pair perfectly with the Jag.
What size is the ceramic PAM? The other PAM is one of the 44mm models, isn't it? I'm assuming 47mm.
I remember my Dad once had dinner with the head of Rolex when someone came up and asked him how the watch business was doing. He replied, "I wouldn't know; I'm in the jewelry business."
"Is that a silde rule in your pants or are you just excited to be a mathlete?"
For all you Rolex guys- I once went swimming in salt water with my bezel not completely seated on a 10 year old datejust and found a water meniscus inside (uh-oh) I went to the dealer who shipped it back to Rolex for cleaning and polishing. It came back looking better than new with all prior scratches polished out and perfect function. That was 15 years ago. Still wear it everyday

I've always been a bit of a eccentric about my watches. Right now my DD is a Ball Spacemaster X-Lume. It has some red detail but I mainly have it for the tritium lume. Here's the press shot.
Going to go out on a limb and say I've got everyone fairly beat here, not the most expensive watch, but this is pretty much as true to form as we've seen.
Ultimate enthusiast watch. Richard Mille RM008 Felipe Mass Tourbillion Chronograph. Price of more than 4 Type R's! But fits right in. Price can't be a factor as it is $450k! I used to sell these and he sells about 50 of these a year worldwide. It is not his most expensive. He opens about around $100k and makes about 3000 watches a year, all highly influenced by the engineering of formula one. I only sold one of these in 4 years and it took 3 months to close the sale at about 15% off. It did look good on my wrist! But I sold on average 10 of his watches a year at his more "normal" prices.
