Pixar should do a Finding Nemo/Cars crossover so they can have a character named Gills Villeneuve.

But he is a tiny dude. Thats only impressive because there is nothing for scale. As someone that watches almost as much UFC as F1, thats a tiny little dude with tiny dude muscles

I posted that pic in the watch thread and within minutes was told it could be this:  Gold IWC Big Pilot. I think they're right. Just look at that big gold hockey puck. It's Lewis to a T.

Why the hell would you buy an IWC and go "yeah I'll take the one that looks like a $150 Diesel watch from JC Penny"

Oris sponsor Williams and make fairly boring but reasonable watches. (unfortunately the actual Williams branded watches are ugly) I rather like this one which is like a Swiss take on a 70s Japanese mechanical

I actually would quite like that without the orange accents. This is how picky I am for watches.

The crime with the Oris Willaims watches are that they make them all in black carbon fibre and not a single one thought to go "hey let's go nuts and make a watch with martini striping details", like, come on

The Oris Aquis is actually a very nice looking diver too. They have other nice divers but lean too hard on fake patina

That's a pretty nice diver since its not an obvious Submariner copy. I like it.

I have a real affinity for Seiko's old high end stuff for whatever reason. Their designs seemed to be a lot cleaner than the Swiss stuff around now

I keep playing with the idea of getting a G757 and alternating between it being a good idea or being extremely tacky and in poor taste. That and I keep hoping another $100 or so gets knocked off the average price.

  Also you guys should be checkin here: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3520271&pagenumber=1 for watch stuff, though I could've sworn both of you have posted there before.

I might actually get that ChronOris, it's like $1500 which is shockingly good for a swiss mechanical, even a relatively low-mid range one (and Oris is independent, which is nice)

Sadly I'm now setting fire to cash buying and setting up an enclosed trailer for my kart and restoring an RX-7 so I'm probably going to stick with the People's Watch for a few more years.

I'm a total sucker for any watch with 70s-inspired design, especially if I don't actually have to deal with vintage watch headaches.
