b16a2 Posted February 3, 2007 Report Posted February 3, 2007 I was watching the first Top Gear show today (I taped it - the one showing Richard Hammonds crash) Did anyone who watched this notice Jeremy's Omega Planet Ocean? It was on a rubber strap, looked very nice!! He also wore it to do roadworks
cornerstone Posted February 3, 2007 Report Posted February 3, 2007 I think you might be right - it's hard to be completely sure. I downloaded this episode last week, it's definitely a black rubber strap and what looks like an Omega buckle. You get quite a good look when he's doing the roadworks, about 14 minutes into it. Of course, I'm not sure if this is a good or a bad thing, but I guess it's always good to see someone in his income bracket finally able to afford a watch like mine
bigpops Posted February 3, 2007 Report Posted February 3, 2007 It was the first thing i noticed. There was a good close up in the show which removed any doubt. In the last series, i'm not sure what he had, and before that, he always wore a bond Seamaster.
Pugwash Posted February 3, 2007 Report Posted February 3, 2007 You must have missed my Top Gear thread last weekend with the screengrab. Here it is again:
ubiquitous Posted February 3, 2007 Report Posted February 3, 2007 I've noticed some Breitlings on Tiff Needell's wrist a few times as well...
flavor flav Posted February 5, 2007 Report Posted February 5, 2007 i want his job! and he obviously gets paid well to pound the snot of these cars!
cornerstone Posted February 5, 2007 Report Posted February 5, 2007 Aye, not bad work if you can get it! I don't know if this was mentioned in the other thread, but I came across an article he wrote for the Sunday Times on buying a new watch - mentions IWC's and the Bell & Ross: Jeremy Clarkson article on buying a new watch Maybe James May could do with being introduced to some of our IWC reps.... (or maybe he already has! )
r11co Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 I have it on good authority that The Stig is a member of RWG.
Pugwash Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 I have it on good authority that The Stig is a member of RWG. Some say that he can spot the rehaut on a replica Sub from 50 metres ... and that his crown guards are the best outside Rolex. But all we know is he's called the_stig.
r11co Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 Some say his eyes are superlumed, and that he can repair and service a seconds@6 Daytona just by rubbing it between his thumb and forefinger. All we know is that he's called......
jonthebhoy Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 ...Stig..................of the dump!

Some say he knows the difference between 'synthetic sapphire' and "Synthetic Sapphire" and that he can hear the beat-rate of a watch with his bat-like ears. All we know ...
Pugwash Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 Oh, did anyone catch Hamster's TAG on Sunday? I'll post a screen cap later, but it was a Monza for those too impatient to wait.

I did, actually. Isn't it handy that most of the cars they review are RHD, putting the camera in the perfect location to catch the watch wrist!

section8 Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 What was capt slow wearing? I had a crappy download of the episode and I couldn't make out the details on his watch. Great show this past one, I loved May in the Bugatti.
Pugwash Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 What was capt slow wearing? I had a crappy download of the episode and I couldn't make out the details on his watch. A big flat thing. I'll post caps of that tonight, too.
r11co Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 ...Stig..................of the dump! John's feeling left out again :D
jonthebhoy Posted February 6, 2007 Report Posted February 6, 2007 Actually one of the best episodes was when they roadied for 'The Who' and tested out 3 vans as an excuse. (Clarkson being a major Who fan of course) That was a laugh. JTB
OrangeSpoon Posted February 8, 2007 Report Posted February 8, 2007 (edited) that is one of the best shows on telly right now, makes fifth gear look a bit silly really whats the going rate on a replica veyron these days? who should i PM to get hold of one? after my recent wedding i have exactly £102.46 available, Swiss engine mind! Edited February 8, 2007 by tester
