But from where to find a matching watch? Best, Kari ...  

but I'm looking for something more sporty and something fitting with the colours of the car. Best, Kari

A GP SF Chrono?

the ETA movement - I prefer having a manufactured one. GP could be nice but the movement is really small compare with the case and I'm not praising how the date is located in the watch. Best, Kari

But I know you\'ve had your issues with AP (though the Diver has a different movement than your 15202) ...  

Thanks for bringing this up. Best Kari

without my experiences about AP. I thought the new yellow ROO chrono and already ordered hornback straps with yellow stitching made-to-measurements. But I'm afraid for the third Monday production watch in a row. Best Kari

I'm more for those traditional brands. Best, Kari

Best, Kari

Slate gray dial, always reminds me of classic car dash boards.

it would be made either of steel or platinum. I am not really a "golden boy". Best Kari

I enjoyed it ...  

I'm just missing all red from inside. Perhaps unfortunately... Best, Kari

Best,

Kari

Big Time. Kari

Very impressive Ferrari and Huge congratulations Kari. Cheers, Patrickh

allergic to Hublot. It's not my kind of brand. Furthermore, all the watches "dedicated" to something like Bentley or whatever, are not my cup of tea. Thanks anyhow. Best, Kari

Cheers, Patrickh

Inside I have some yellow things... Best, Kari

+/- with their "small" Horse print in. Best regards, Patrickh

Made by another crazy Finn. Kari

Being both from the icy north?

I have heard that S.Sarpaneva is in love with Koskenkorva (vodka). I'm not. But there's something very Finnish in his watches. Think about the best known Finnish mobile game producer and their #1 product: Angry Birds. Angry Moon, Angry Birds, Angry Finns.... 

I\'d call it melancholic. Love those moons! And a watch like that in a Ferrari like (soon to be) yours is a killer combo. Don\'t forget that another flying Finn driving the fastest Ferrari is wearing a Sarpaneva!

Both of the Finns we are speaking about love Koskenkorva. We used to go to the same bar in Helsinki with Kimi and he was normally drunk like a baboon. A typical Finn... I think the moon in Sarpaneva's watches is not melancholic but Hangover Moon. Best, Ka... 

Ok, well I\'m hoping to get one anyway.

Are you having some Finnish blood? Best, Kari

a Sarpaneva

I will try to book a meeting. At least we speak the same language. Best, Kari

Congrats on the car. Perfect! A sporty and black high end watch to go with it? How about something from Richard Mille? My choice is RM035 or RM055 in black. Otherwise, go for something more "classically sporty": Platinum Datograph Up/Down or a 5204P with ... 

ALS Dato would be cool but perhaps it's lacking the elegance of an Italian car. Best Kari

I'm just a stupid Finn... Kari

would be best because it costs the same as the car. That one I save for my next Ferrari which is already in my dreams. My 5960/1A is reserved for my 911 Targa GTS. Kari

...after all, the Ferraris have also come a long way from being strictly mechanical and analog performance machines. Probably produced in even lower built numbers, but with an equally and distinctly different approach to watches as we know them (thanks to...  

I guess I'm too old and conservative for digital watches. But thanks. Kari

The Ferrari California isn\'t exactly for "old and conservative" either... Your exquisite taste in watches is timeless and if anything, gets only better with age and experience. But of course digital isn\'t for everyone. Don\'t own one either. Yet. Happy ... 

that my wife is 29. She can drive Ferrari and I can slowly follow her with my 911 Targa GTS... Best, Kari

Roger Dubuis Because of the star shape can be found on both. Cheers, Kolosstt

...  

but these co-brandings are not my thing. I wouldn't buy Patek suits, shirts, underwear... Best, Kari

...I think Roger Dubuis Excalibur Automatic Skeleton. ...  

Thanks, I will have a closer look at the watch. Best, Kari

The star bridge is very attractive, and the skeleton gives excellent views of the micro-rotor and it's transmission, and the mainspring which powers a four wheel gear train and a separate motion work. Superb. But for more stealth and simplicity I might al... 

I am probably too limited with my selection which is mostly Patek, Rolex, VC, Breguet... Best, Kari

I would say RD is a good step into other territory - bold yet familiar in quality and execution.

The IWC Ingenieur Climate Action with black Kevlar and yellow stitch IWC, not ETA movement, ceramic bezel, dial design like brake calipers grabbing a disc, yellow accents, AND probably would come with some CO2 offset credits... Cheers, Mike aka Cazalea ...  

This might be suitable. In my Ferrari there's so much carbon that it nearly makes me sick. At least my bank account did not like that. Best, Kari

By the end of May, I will pick up one of the ideas presented here. The father of the winning proposal will get a brand new Patek Philippe travelling roll for 4 watches. Best, Kari

...as you have not limited the number of entries I am going to give you a full consultation! Option 4: URWERK UR-105TA

I am so bloody old that I can hardly operate a chronograph. Best, Kari

Don't be fooled this is nothing more than the wandering hours that have been around since before the wristwatch - it's just dressed in a modern suit! As for the turbine dampers on the back, I will give you a tutorial when you DO decide to buy...

it's better that you live in a nice part of US... Best, Kari

Happy to oblige if you are in Manhattan any time. There is a particular watch store that has a handful of very apt watches for that car under one roof; including the UR-105 so you can play before you pay.

once every year and normally I take my family there in the autumn. A lovely city - I never get bored with that. Furthermore, I have business with a NYC based company. Hope to see you this year and get some tutoring. Best, Kari

and that gives me time to buy 3 new watches Mike

the 5370P with black enamel! That's the matching one I see with this car. Congrats! Rgds Raymond

before I'll get that. Perhaps in the end of the year, perhaps next spring before Baselworld. I will pick up, like I mentioned, on 25th 3 new Patek in platinum plus one in steel. Additionally, I need to pick up a vintage in May. This is so much, also money... 

Not sure if this has already been mentioned... Gorgeous car! Cheers, John

and I have been looking at their Evolution line. The sad part is that I bought last year a BP chronograph but I am not wearing the watch at all. Even I like it a lot. Best, Kari

... but I had a suggestion of the chrono rattrapante flyback big date in mind, too ...  

So BP Evolution is out. Or I need to visit Lambo shop. The good thing with Lambo where I live is that it could be used for cleaning the roads from snow in the winter... Best, Kari

What else should go with a Ferrari? Best Moritz

The coming 5370P is for "my next Ferrari". Now they have a car with 4-wheel drive. Fantastic here. My chooses of cars is quite limited because I need to buy something which can also carry our 2-years old. I proposed my wife today that we would assemble a ... 

I once saw someone driving a Honda Civic with the Jaeger LeCoultre Amvox / Aston Martin DBS transponder. And Ferrari is nicer IMO than Lambo anyhow! Oh well...the Blancpain L-Evolution was the first piece that came to mind... Cheers, John

but Ferrari is always having a model or two where the kid can be thrown to the back seat. Best, Kari

but the cufflinks arrived today. Nice enamel with five colours. Best, Kari ...  

....Reverso Duetto

It will add a touch of class. ...  

Tarja has this watch and I'm sure she'll wear it day and night against both car keys. Those women... Best, Kari

or just innocent typo? Pity it is not RED!!

But no, I did not re-marry. At least she looks familiar. This bloody memory... Best, Kari

Darja not Tarja

Tarja Anneli is her name plus my family name. It's historical. Estonia was for about 50 years under Soviet occupation. Let me give you an example: somebody was baptised "Jyri", a very typical Estonian (and Finnish) name. The same guy used the name "Juri" ...
