TVR Chronograph Watch

[500dread]

As the title says really. Fancied one of these for a long time but missed the last one I saw on eBay quite some time ago.

Anyone have one or know of someone who does who would sell?

It's my birthday soon and fancied treating myself

I didn't know there was a chronograph watch

Yes Chris nothing so fancy as a certified time piece. Just a rather attractive cheap chronograph watch which if memory serves retailed for about £80 at Hilltop TVR in 2000. Why oh why I never bought the one on display that day I'll never know. I have a pic of the watch in question though typically I know not which disc or HD it survives on so can not post it up sorry. Someone soon no doubt will for us though.

Now about my birthday.......

Have a search on ebay,some cheap looking tvr watches on there,no where near as nice as the originals.

Thanks I did though I've no interest in those. It is the one that Colin posted that I would like.

As for the watch forum isn't it more likely someone in TVR world not watch world will have one?
That said it's unlikely anyone here will part with their's.

It's a long shot me asking, but you never know

I'm wondering if one might surface should I keep this topic active. Somehow I think I'm onto a loser, lol.

Wouldn't have thought it would be that difficult to have one made,a watchmaker could apply a TVR sticker to any watch

That would work but it's not quite like having the 'real' thing which was endorsed by TVR after all.

Got me thinking though. I could buy a very basic kit car running an RV8. Likely very cheap too. Sticker it up as a TVR. Do you think anyone would notice?

Was not aware of such at Sekonda?

Still, I'm wanting a chrono if there's one out there somewhere?

That accounts for two of the 500!

Imagine how many are never worn or ever see the light of day. I want to wear one!

There's got to be one of the 498 left someone wants to part with?

What is the going rate for one of these watches if someone was willing to part with one

Do you have one Steve? If so the obvious place to find out would likely be eBay. Or you could send me a pm if you're willing to sell?

I have one still in the original box, never worn. Never ever thought it would become collectable .

Collectable? Never worn!

What a waste

That's 3 then. Maybe 4 if Steve has one?

Could be a long topic this one
