Go together great. I went to Yonkers Raceway today, and my family went to the big Classic Car show. It was so great, so many nice rides.

I also noticed a bunch of nice watches, Breitlings, Daytonas, Subs, Royal Oaks, you name it! Here are some pics from today. I'll post some more tomorrow. Photobucket is not cooperating.

Some more:

One of my favorites:

Ok in all seriousness, this cooler/moped/awesome thing was one of the best inventions I've ever saw. No joke.

Nice photos! And yes, watches and cars go well together, which is something many brands have recognised - Breitling's Bentley range springs to mind, GP and Panerai have collaborated with Ferrari and I think a high-end watch brand has a Bugatti line (I think it's Richard Mille)...

propedderkustom · 12 October 2009, 01:37 PM

Great shots. What kind of camera are you using??

Speed · 12 October 2009, 01:37 PM

Yup. Cars / Watches are more closely related than most folks think.

Interesting section in this online documentary film about luxury watches / WIS's:
http://www.theluxurychannel.tv/timeMachines.aspx

Richard Mille talks about racing & his cool watches...also a nice discussion of cars compared to Rolex equivalents / the last few decades...

Canon Powershot G9, but lately I've been itching for a DSLR.

Now I'm starting to see a connection....when I was little I remember I would walk up and down the street, just naming all the brands of the cars I saw up and down of my block. I was really into cars and I still am. Now it's watches.

I watched that recently and it was such a great, neat into for anyone looking to get into or brush up on WHY we love watches.

marcham · 12 October 2009, 02:10 PM

Great pics, looks like lots of fun there....

JBat · 12 October 2009, 02:14 PM

Great shots, Kyle. I love car shows myself and try to go to several a year.

Cool.

I like the comparisons the film made between old Porsche's / the Steve McQueen Explorer etc....

Man, those Richard Mille watches are in another stratosphere.

Another favorite line was when a British Actor / WIS said there was a connection between men who liked cars & watches...and while he thought of himself as such a man, he did not think much of men who LIKED cars & watches. Go figure!

greekbum · 12 October 2009, 02:42 PM

Nice shots of the nice cars.I guess Rolex's go good with nice cars,bikes,planes, etc
I bought my 1969 Z/28 Camaro 2 weeks before my GMT way back in the day.2 things I wont part with by choice

I don't think Rolex is associated with any brand per se, but I know Tudor have a strong connection with Porsche

I'm thinking it was a kit, because the interior was all new, and it had alot of metal inside. But I don't really know, and I didn't get to ask him. The guy was a dealer.
