I'm guessing at least the 2 x Breitling Bentley Tourbillon are replicas?
I'm guessing the Rolex is too.

A replica watch for each car he owns, impressive!

This seemed appropriate this morning given the wetness and general gloom. I keep having to remind myself it's August!

In all seriousness the tourbillions look fake. Both look like an escapement wheel and not a tourbillion, and the left/white one doesn't have open dials at 3&9. On the Rolexes the magnification of the cyclops looks wrong and the metal looks similar to the Omegas, which is so so wrong as they used different steels. I'd love to be proved wrong though as it'd be a nice collection if they were all real.

I think maybe the fleet isn't that current….

It's been a while since I wore this, however its quality never fails to impress.

Nice collection!

Ignore the childish comments from those who are obviously a bit jealous. Enjoy.

Is there really any need for the unpleasantness? This is usually an OK area of PH, so what if they might be fake? I didn't see him try and pass them off as real ones, he just said 'here's my collection'. If you don't like it or think they're fake why not just not comment?

Found this beauty today. Plastic bezel has a nice action and the rubber strap is nice and supple. A keeper for sure.

Hiding behind a screen firing off insults about someone you don't know anything about is pretty sad behaviour if you ask me.

It's not welcome on here thanks.

Neither are fake watches.

The mere fact he never said they were fakes means he intended to pass them off as real. That's what's got me annoyed, especially the two poor copies of the Bentley watches. If that collection was of real watches I'd be impressed that someone could spend £300k+ in a couple of years on watches, and would have been complimentary and asked for more info/pics, but since some of them are obvious replicas it's just a box of junk IMO.

If it's a display back please post a pic, they are always stunning even if not in keeping with the original purpose. biggrin
