Sweet. There's a guy who gets it; classic, timeless, iconic. No bling or other stupidity.

Great pic, mate. Thanks.

He strikes me as a cool dude, and he obviously likes his watches. My favorite Bond since Connery.

British guy who didn't know how to drive stick is astounding to me. Can't get over that still.

Really? I can think of plenty I would love to own at just about every price level. Definitely not as many as ten years ago, though.

You're right. I just hate that the Land Cruiser has been sold as an auto-only since 1988.

I would imagine the market for a manual Land Cruiser in the US is so small it is not worth getting the combination approved for sale.

When interviewed a while ago and asked about his hobbies, he said he collects watches, or rather, I think his words were, "I like watches."

Really? Fantastic! I suddenly like him a lot more and will watch his wrist more closely whenever he is on screen... :popcorn:

If that's true, he's gotta be a bit cheesed. I would be if I was stuck wearing Omega in public with a collection like his in the house. They must be paying him well if that's the case.

On the other hand, nobody should wear one those Project-X/Bamford/Pro-Hunter/Sheep-Dip PVDed pieces of shit.

PS:

Ha, that cheap-ass font strikes again! Are they doing their designs in MS Paint!? Nothing says "unprofessional" like Arial. It's the typographic equivalent of a dangling booger.

At least one of the other joke companies uses it... and on the dial, no less:

An old rumor long since debunked by Craig himself.

:clap: None of those ever quite struck a cord with me, but couldn't stare long enough to at it to pin-point the offending elements. Well said.
