Pretty good achievement for a 14 year old... Donny admitted that was his age after his first Bullshitting outing.

Then in the what do you do with your spare time he posted pics of "Himself" playing golf and snowboarding.... not even the same person in both pics IMO...... he looks pretty old for 14!!!

Cheers! Yeah it is indeed a good laugh! Quite a back road weapon aswell. Unfortunately only about 140 bhp, i want the RS focus (240 bhp!!) much more fun.

The new watch from Tag Heuer Concept (Monaco V4)- gotta be the coolest watch i've seen. inspired by car design, powered by platinum ingots moving inside the casing, causing movement of pulleys, not gears. and it's mostly see through so you can see all the mechanics functioning.

I realise this thread is ancient, however just today my favourite watched actually arrived.
I discovered it when in the USA about a fortnight ago, ordered it and today is the lucky day where i now can wear my own.
It's a Breitling Montbrillant Datora.
Custom Shot (Apologies for the HORRIBLE lighting / pic

Better Shot (official):

I'm proud to share it with you :fadein:

Glad you're happy dude - too cluttered for me though - this is what i like

here's my baby!

My watch is a simple Casio. if I had the bloody cash, I'd get myself a swiss Omega.

callen · 11-28-2005, 09:50 PM

Well I like ESQ, which I have now, the look is nice and prices are reasonable... ill hold onto that one for some time, then probably look at getting a Movado after, very nice watches and at a price i can afford in a few yrs...After Movado we will have to see how my bank balance looks to kno if it'll get better

I don't wear a watch, my phone tells me the time.

Why don't women wear watches?

Because theres a clock on the oven!

A couple of days ago I atteneded the official presentation of this watch, here in Madrid: the Parmigiani Fleurier Bugatti Type 370

It's a really wierd watch... I didn't like it much myself...

The best part though, is that nobody told us there would be a "great surprise" during the presentation...

And yes, there it was... None of us who were attending could believe it:

It seems that they managed to bring a Veyron to Madrid, in order to make it's first official press appearance.

The car is amazing, very low but "fat" enough to look very mean... The sound of the engine is just amazing... I should not at this point that since we were in a private club, the car was never reved above 2000 rpms, and the sound was besides that totally incredible....

This is a friend of mine in the interior of the car, listening to Mr. Alister's explanations on the car, etc...

By the way, he confirmed us that the real speed is of about 420 kph, and that just to gain 1 more kph of speed, the engine would need an extra 80 hp... incredible!!!!!!

I hope my friend will send me more pictures and I'll post them here for you...

Cheers!!!

BTW, glad to see another spanish member around here but... this is slightly off-topic, isn't it??

That's what I thought myself... But Mr. Alister put us on the right track, and explained that at that kind of speeds and due to the strengh of the wind, the car needed 80 extra hp for every 1 kph of gain in top speed...

Think about it, it's quite logical...

Cheers!!!
