gmchris 68 Posted September 17, 2014 So was watching Channel 5 news tonight, read by Matt Barbet (youngish semi trendy new generation-newsguy-celebrity-wannabe), and noticed a rather nice watch on his wrist - hit sky pause, rewind pause - Oh yeah, looks like a Panerai. Not bad for an entry-level news guy. Mmm Skip forward a few hours to Fast-n-loud, and Gas monkey Richard Rawlins is doing his usual "Jeeze/Woohoo" routine with a DSSD on his wrist. Surprised at the first one, no surprise with the second, but got me thinking, what other celebrities (if you can call them that) wear what watches? I'm not talking Mcqueen or Newman here, I mean ones that you wouldn't expect. Anyone got a list? (no prizes, just for fun, and any 'who cares' posts are mardy gits) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Venomous 0 Posted September 17, 2014 I hate to admit this, but tonight I watched Jeremy Kyle (the missus had the remote!) and I wondered what watch he wears. Looked like an IWC, but could be way off. Anyone know? V Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's got an extensive collection of watches. The ones he brought along to "Talking Watches" were just a few from his collection, not to mention what he has added to his collection recently since that came out (we know about at least one replica/franken) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
