Dope shizz .... watch edition

**teutonicgoodness** · 08-02-2010 11:37 PM

Well, it seems every other forum has one of these, so why not start one here.

My favorites are the Panerai Luminor Marina and the Submariner (worn by Steve McQueen). I threw in a watches from Wyler and Hublot. I see them in American Express Departures magazine each month and they look hella expensive. Let's see some watches!

mcqueen either has a sub no date or a sea dweller.......

**Low J.** · 08-03-2010 12:59 PM

Here's a few I've been having the serious wants for lately.

**teutonicgoodness** · 08-03-2010 10:29 PM

Yeah, I noticed that. Is that a possible option for the Submariner?

they used to make a 'no date' sub with plastic crystal..........not sure if it's still made or not......
the sea dweller is still being built.......it has a gas escapement valve on the side of the case........without a date.....I think

Above are some of my favorites, but way out of my league.

Just picked this up as a wedding present:

Hope to sometime pick up this:

I own a non-date Sub, see photos below. The Sea Dweller has date but doesn't have a cyclops. Theres no date window in that photo

They are still making non-date Submariners, but have recently become COSC certified. Mine is from around 1993, and the manual (and other things Ive read) suggest that the Submariners have a sapphire crystal. I think it was the earlier ones that had plastic crystals.

My ~1993 non-date Submariner

AL&S watches are absurd... nuff said. huge fan of panerai watches, especially because it was my first watch as a collector starting this year

I have that, only difference is my subdials are the same color as the face and the strap has orange stitching. I think mine is the previous year edition or it got changed for final production from what you show.

I got the McQueen display with it when I bought it as well since it was the last one in the company and they didnt need the display any longer.

Could be. Could also be an older Heuer (pre-TAG).

On a side note, after all these years, I had no idea that he was left-handed.

**teutonicgoodness** · 10-23-2010 05:23 AM

I thought they looked cool, until I realized that a lot of them are over $100K!!

that steve mcqueen shot looks very very fake.

**teutonicgoodness** · 10-25-2011 05:28 PM

In honor of Jay-Z announcing "New watch alert" and dropping Hublot, I thought I would add this....

This is it for me the Bell & Ross BR01 Red Radar

**teutonicgoodness** · 11-14-2011 05:40 PM

I am afraid I am not smart enough to figure that watch out...it looks great, though.

Yeah... not easy to read on the fly. Pretty sure its showing 1:51 and the seconds sweep is in the center.

**NHDUBN#2** · 11-15-2011 03:40 PM

You are correct sir.

**CanadianTurbo** · 11-15-2011 05:09 PM

I saw one of the Radar's in person when I was getting a replacement rubber strap for my BR01-94, pretty cool but not sure I would want to wear it all the time.

Really starting to want a Rolex these days (must be getting old) and always like the Bamford & Sons customs.
