Following on from the Audi-Omega thread.
Skoda - Sekonda Smart - Swatch Vauxhall - Timex Toyota - Casio Lotus/Porsche - Tag Ferrari - Patek Philippe Bugatti/Zonda - Richard Mille Mercedes - Rolex Volvo - Accurist Alfa Romeo - Armani Maserati - T W Steel! Honda - Seiko Mclaren - has to be Hamilton.
BMW confuses me. Apparently BMW owners top the list for their preference for a bit on the side, so maybe something sacrificial that can be left on the bedside table.
I'm sure there must have been a more considered listing in the past as this is Pistonheads.
Personally as a Toyota and Porsche owner, I have a Casio Edifice, Omega tank and a Cyma military (my first car was a military Austin Champ but that is a touch obscure!)

Interesting topic, but I can't disagree with you more about ferrari-Patek.
I would have said Ferrari-AP

I'd have personally put TW Steel with Hummer or something equally huge and ostentatious!
Maser would be more Ball for me - bright and shiny, even at night!
And FWIW, I have an Omega and a Golf... so I guess Audi isn't too far off!

AMOC magazine are sponsored by Chopard, whether that means anything I don't know, but I have just bought one on the back of it as it sparked my imagination.

My Vit is pretty basic, so I'll suggest a sundial.

I'm confused by this. I own a Mercedes and a classic metro (yes, there is such an animal!) and my watches range from Omega and Breitling to Seiko and Citizen by way of Christopher Ward, Tudor and Longines...
However, I want a Rolex.
So what does this say about me?

Lotus = CW surely? for some reason the Evora seems to remind me of Christopher ward  Landrover defender = Ballistic?

Did Christoper Ward use the Lexus dials for inspiration? I would recommend an Allegro Vanden Plas for an aspiring Rolex owner, rather than a 'classic' Metro! Proper Land Rover drivers need a Suunto when the going gets bad.

Even more confused on the BMW front. I guess it depends what's at hand on the bedside table! 1 series could be a Casio and 7 series Longine?
I was told at my local Porsche dealership some years ago, that the watch and shoes showed whether the prospective customer was a viable prospect. He was either very honest or commenting on my footwear! Like watches, Imelda Marcos does shoes.
There really must be a connection. My list is exploratory.

I'll add: Skoda - CW (Robust, reliable and not bank-breakingly expensive; An all round good choice) Porsche - Rolex (They're everywhere! The defacto sports car/sports watch choice) Mercedes - Omega (Well built, common, lots of heritage) Alfa Romeo - Glycine (Lots of character, but sometimes forgotten!) Maserati - JLC (Well ...  )
