Hello again i have a problem. I just can not! I mean not stop looking at my new blue sub

:chuckle

Also i have just realised it is a perfect match for my bike any thoughts?

JJ Irani · 4 December 2007, 02:38 AM

It's a beautiful watch that definitely matches up perfectly with your bike.....but would you really wear that watch whilst riding your bike?

wantonebad · 4 December 2007, 02:52 AM

I think we have issues, JJ you've been obsessed for years, at least there is a chance that sparticus and I will becomenormal again in a few months?

TDH · 4 December 2007, 02:59 AM

Nice watch Sparticus and welcome to the SUB Club, the Blue Sub is such a classic.

Nice bike too - how does it compare to the Hayabusa?

sparticas · 4 December 2007, 03:38 AM

Well compared to the hayabusa it is like chalk and cheese they both produce about 175 bhp but my bike is like a little 600 it only weighs 162kg or 356 pounds the busa weighs in at a hefty 217kg or about 420 pounds.

Yes jj good point i dont think i will wear it while riding!

SPACE-DWELLER · 4 December 2007, 03:40 AM

Perfect pair!

Dammit! I am getting more and more tempted to get one of those TT Blue Subs!

But my bank account says

slojoh · 4 December 2007, 04:01 AM

Wear it on the bike! not a big deal. I have worn mine while riding for years without a problem and i know the harley vibrates more than the sportbike.

But my bank account says

Do what I did, treat it like a part time job. I collected any and everything of value that I no longer used or was interested in, sold it on e-bay/craigs list, fixed PC's and setup HDTV's for my friends and kept the money in my ING savings until I had accumulated enough to pay cash for it. Took me about 6 months, would have been less if we didn't have to replace my wifes car unexpectedly

frostie · 4 December 2007, 04:39 AM

That's a great pair

f16570 · 4 December 2007, 06:08 AM

Nice watch, nice bike. Do not see any problem with wearing it while you ride.

ashu2289 · 4 December 2007, 06:49 AM

Nice combo

keith · 4 December 2007, 10:30 AM

I think it will take a while to stop looking at the sub. And its just not going to stop beaming its beauty.

ROLEXAHOLIC · 4 December 2007, 10:36 AM

Congratulations !!!!!!!! Good move !!!!!! It's a beauty !!!! Why would you want to stop looking at it ???

marshallr47 · 4 December 2007, 03:12 PM

Great looking combo. Thanks for sharing.

Gemini34 · 4 December 2007, 03:39 PM

Absolutely stunning :) Nice sub

waeleldasher · 4 December 2007, 04:04 PM

I love the blue sub. Borrowed my friends (we swapped, he borrowed my daytona) and it is such a stunning watch. Too bad it looks terrible on me. I just don't have the skin color for the yellow gold...darn it. That dial so special.

Wear it in good health.

Gemini34 · 4 December 2007, 04:12 PM

The blue is the favorite

Neilduc · 4 December 2007, 04:18 PM

Very nice combination Sparticas. I really like the blue sub. Although mine doesnt match with my bike, I still wear it when riding.

Thanks Sparticas, I love this bike. It has almost everything that you can think of. The power, the beauty and the style.
I have not seen the 848 yet. But the dealership I go to, will have it in about a week. The 848 has the same style as 1098's. The only diff is the engine. 848's has lot of power too. They will come with the pearl white color which is nice.

Andad · 4 December 2007, 09:01 PM

Hi guys,

Yes, very nice bikes. I had a ride on a Suzuki GSX-R last month. Very very quick.

Your 1098 looks like it has Showa on the front, which model is that?

All Ducatis come with Brembo calipers and the standard model, non 'S' model doesn't have Ohlins suspension only the S model and Tricolour do :).

Nice duo with the watch and bike, my SS GMT doesn't go too well with mine :(

The new models for Ducati doesnt come with Showa or Tokiko brakes. They are all Brembo brakes.
Even my old 749 has the Brembo brakes, but the 1098's has the most stoping power so far.

ezmoney46 · 5 December 2007, 03:45 PM

Nice Combo, TT Blue is my next one, I think it's the best looking Rolex hands down!

Neilduc · 5 December 2007, 04:03 PM

I agree.
