What kind of watch do you sport with your 3 series?

Still my all time favourite 2013 Breitling Superocean M2000, just another location

M4's gas mileage...

Depending on how you want to do it, a VC Chromo will likely be a good buy soon. They will be announcing the "new" one this year at SIHH (in a couple weeks). You will either want that one (in house movement, and we'll know more after SIHH) or you may be able to get a better deal on the soon to be "previous generation". I am saving my pennies...

In kms! What part of Canada are you in? I'm not a big fan of a lot of breitling but I love that super ocean.

I am looking forward to the new release in Geneva, however the NYC boutique edition overseas chrono has stolen my heart and maybe the one I get regardless. Would probably get rid of my JLC for it.

No longer a 3 series owner but still in a BMW!

Ooh. You mean the perpetual, or the NA limited edition non perpetual? The 1136 QP movement in that Perpetual Chrono is amazing. I would have the boutique open it for pictures! You, sir, have excellent (and expensive) tastes.

+1 same for me .Been 3 weeks last time I wore it.

08njSTEP · 01-09-2016, 08:09 AM

Me too. Tag Heuer F1. Used to wear it everyday then chipped crystal and spent $750 getting it redone by tag. Time is less important to me now so it goes out rarely. I also work with my hands and watches don't really belong in my job. Going out is when the F1 is on.

jtodd_fl · 01-09-2016, 08:20 AM

Wearing a great watch is like driving an M. You don't drive an M just for transportation and you don't wear a great watch just to tell time. Those are by-products of the real reasons. They are about pinnacles of achievement, excellence in engineering, embodiments of human ingenuity, etc... (At least to some). For some, they are simply status symbols. Everyone has their own definition of value.

yep, the perpetual chrono-has been a favorite of mine since the boutique in NYC opened back in 2011 and have loved it since...

^thanks, it is a watch that I have owned going on for 10 years now-very much a car guys watch. The gauge is for the power reserve however it is a 46hr reserve. The gauge is supposed to represent the cars that participate in the Mille miglia

I'm going to SIHH next week, anyone going to be in town?
