Heston Blumenthal's Watch?!

Guys,
I saw that someone here asked about Jay Leno's watch, anyone know what watch Heston Blumenthal wears?

I guess this is really for the UK guys but just for everyone else's benefit : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heston_Blumenthal

He is wearing a rather nice looking watch in his latest TV series, I initially thought it was Franck Muller, then Cvstos or Richard Mille, but I think I am way off, any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris

I think you maybe onto something with Cvstos - looks like one of their creations...

Or - it could very well be a Roger Dubuis, man, I wish that pic was larger, the watch looks SWEEET!

After watching the last episode of his medieval banquet programme it strikes me that it could actually be a piece of meat or fruit cleverly disguised as a watch.

As much as I like Welshwatchman's suggestion that it may be food in disguise, it appears that someone has ID'ed it elsewhere (and indeed that there is another sad git out there with the same question as me!!)

It appears to be a Ebel Tarawa Chronograph I think this s correct as I can see the triple domed crystal and roman numerals... I am sightly disappointed that its not something extremely expensive and obscure.... but it does have a great presence!
