that_watch_guy Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 I've been seeing them everywhere recently. Most notably on TV, but no screen captures. Leonardo Dicaprio is sporting a titanium avenger, which you can see just barely peaking out of his sleeve, while Nick Lachey is wearing a diamond encrusted Chrono of some kind. Spousal support from the wife must be nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronus Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 I wore a Breitling Avenger Seawolf (titanium) today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
that_watch_guy Posted June 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 The Tattoo shop owner on that TV show Miami Ink ALWAYS wears his Breitling SS Avenger, that's part of the reason I watch that show haha. That dude also has a few other cool watches. I also see Chris Angel, Mind Freak, wearing a white faced diamond encrusted Bentley every once in a while.

sye46 Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 Nick Lachey got a Jacob & co. diamond watch from Jessica for his birthday a few years ago..... I wonder what nick did with it. And Leonardo DiCaprio is a avid JLC collector.. (he owns a Gyrotourbillon, Platinum Master Grand Reveil, Reverso Septantieme and a MC Geographic).... so I'm surprised he wore an Avenger.

that_watch_guy Posted June 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 I'm also surprised that Dicaprio wore the avenger, that photo was shot on the set of his upcoming movie, a period piece set well before the avenger chrono even came out.

TmeShare Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 No pictures but I have seen photos of Harrison Ford, The "Bamm" chef guy, and Richard Gere with Breitling watches. Breitling is popular with racers also, like Derek Bell (who claimed in an OP watch article to have given the idea for the Breitling for Bentley watch to a high ranking Breitling Official in a hospitality suite at the 24 Hours of LeMans a number of years ago), J.J. Lehto and Alexander Wurz. I believe that I have even seen pictures of John Travolta wearing breitling long before he actual became a spokesman!!

that_watch_guy Posted June 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 Yes, I've seen him wear a SS/white dial Daytona before. Anyhow, it's nice to see that less people are wearing those god aweful blang blang Jacob & Co watches, they look ridiculous unless you are a gangsta rapper.

hk45ca Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 The most important thing to note here, for us on RWG is the conversations. Guy wearing a gen Rolex meets guy somewhere: "Nice watch, Rolex? Is that real?" Guy wearing a Breitling rep meets some guy: "Wow, nice watch. What is that". Rep wearer: "It's a Breit". Observer: "Nice watch!" exactly, where i live i see lots of rolex, oil money lol but ihave never seen a brietling in person here. nobody would know a bad rep from a gen here. anybody seen the red one that emril wares? pretty cool looking poking out from that white chefs coat.
