I didn't remember the YachtMaster being part of the actual watch. I thought it was a Gate Cheapie or something that looked like the Daytona. Didn't remember anything about it being a prototype.

It's always fun to go into these stores once in a while and overhear the casual discussion of 70-80k prices. 45 minutes ago, fatarms said: Nice YachtMaster Wasn't this a rep of some musician's watch or something? I vaguely remember the story from years ago. Clapton I think it was? Eric Clapton did own it at some point, I'm not sure if he sold it or not (his has Units Per Hour at 1 o'clock on the bezel). I first saw it on a Talking Watches video featuring John Goldberger who has the 2nd piece(with Units per Hour at 3 o'clock on bezel): Skip to 4:10 for the watch, but the whole episode is pretty epic. The video editing, less so. 3rd piece is with Rolex 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dave47 6,477 Posted October 21, 2020 HI, Gang! For Tuesday, this oldie BREITLING SUPER OCEAN, with black dial and black w/ white stitched leather strap & using a new/old CANON SX170 IS digital camera. My old, trusty Canon A590 IS is shot, I believe, after a dozen years taking thousands of pics. The Super Ocean is a decent watch, rugged, solid, and heavy -- in a way, just like me, heh!! dave: 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also didn't know, so google-to-the-rescue, it seems our beloved hedgehog is having a bit of a James Deen issue (with the lovely Stoya), he is being accused of sexualy assaulting quite a large number of women, afaik he is not sentenced (yet?)
