Cars and Watches

Trogster · 10-19-2023, 12:00 PM

There appears to be a strong intersection between cars and watches.

With that in mind, what watch goes best with your M2? A very personal choice for sure.

In my case, it's my 45th Snoopy:

We have a whole subsection dedicated to watches. You can find it here: https://g87.bimmerpost.com/forums/fo...play.php?f=467

Today I am wearing my Oris Big Crown ProPILOT. Yesterday was my Omega Moonwatch (hesalite). I think this week I also wore my Oris Aquis.

Hope this doesn't turn into another g80 forum...

marlinduke · 10-19-2023, 12:13 PM

Or an argument over Hesalite versus Sapphire on Moonwatches....

Thanks for the link

Something basic enough that if systems and batteries fail, I can still get the time:

TorontoRedCoastie · 10-19-2023, 09:40 PM

Junghans Mega Solar is my EDC.

stashstein · 10-19-2023, 10:03 PM

That snoopy is gorgeous!

I'm currently wearing this neat little Hamilton field watch I picked up a few weeks ago.

I have a Seamaster 300 and a Stowa flieger that are my usual go tos, along with a MoonSwatch, some Christopher Ward chrono I got years ago, a Seiko 5 SNK that doesn't get nearly the amount of wear time it deserves and some other odds and ends

A speedy has been on my wish list for a long time. Some day!

Apple Watch Ultra 2

Apple Watch with background picture of my m2

apez · 10-20-2023, 11:00 AM

My watch is black so I had to order BSM to match.

It's a cheap Garmin watch.

KCuv · 10-20-2023, 12:29 PM

always a nice reminder.

sacowich · 10-20-2023, 02:29 PM

I’m partial to Tissot.

Zheeeem · 10-20-2023, 03:07 PM

I recently bought an elderly TAG-Heuer "Black Coral". Which I wear a lot. But the watch that goes best with my M2 is my Patek 2526.

LCDRJohn · 10-20-2023, 04:56 PM

Something that you don't see everyday: a moonphase and a USMC MARPAT uniform! haha!

I wore this on my last mission to the arctic circle. Got laughed at a lot by the grunts.....but what the hell do they know?? (except that the green crayons are the tastiest)

KCuv · 10-20-2023, 06:18 PM

Looking for a deal on a pelagos if anyone has a lead

To go with my choice of manual transmission, I have a 1969 manual wind Omega Speedmaster Professional, purchased new in college for $195!
