Pictorial Evidence... 3 Freaks & an Aston martin at MPH07

here's the best pic as taken by my 12 year old son. 3 freaks( 1 on wrist, 1 wearing it and the one with horns on the book cover) and a light blue AM ) couldnt get a pic of the freak on the freak in the freakish hummer as i was wearing it and said son had disappeared somewhere.

please note the black Hummer H3 to the right of the pic. even that is taller than the average Brit!

i always thought that side steps were for show, but i actually needed them to get into the drivers seat. i might never get one, but i would if i could, if i didnt spend all the money on watches first

'What watch for what occasion'??

By: G99 : November 6th, 2007-04:49

i'll start with this weekends trip to the NEC in birmingham for the MPH 07 motor show. the watch will probably be my 2003 Omega Railmaster. comfortable, easy to read at a glance, IMO nicer than Jeremy Clarksons Planet Ocean(just in case i meet him) and no...

Depends....

Hi, For me if its a hot crowded weather i might be putting up a GP BMW-Oracles in rubber strap or panerai Regatta in rubber strap. If its a cooling day ,you would say i will be in my JLC ECW leather strap or IWC Top Gun Ceramic with leather strap. In my m...

Any occasion..

Hi Graham I would use any occassion to 'Freak' Jeremy out. Show him some proper individual styling with a unique power plant. Doesn't even need lubricating - no 'Castrol R' here. Have a great time. Russell

Gandhi once said: " Live each day as if you will die tomorrow. Learn from each day as if you will live forever." Living each day...I will go for the motor show...and wear the Freak. Learning? Wearing / owning the Freak has made me more friends and allowed...

To the general public, the Freak and its material value is unknown ...

... and therefore it is not probable that someone would be after it. Generally, I have no concern about wearing any watch outside in the public. Of course, something can happen, but being struck my a meteorite is more probable .... I think. Regards, Marcu...

the freak triumphed...a luxury watch surrounded by luxury cars

only 3 people batted an eyelid with me wearing it and they were checking over the Hummer H2 while i was sitting in it reassuring myself that its a car(?) i could happily live with. the door was open and i was finding that everything was in the right place...

Was a good laugh - thanks for the story ...

Thanks a lot for the pics, but, sorry, ....

... I cannot get used to the Hummers. This car is shouting out: SHOW!! and not saying: work! Why not getting a decent Nissan Patrol, or the new large Landcruiser? These are large, but not too large for the average European road/village, and their offroad ...

Marcus, you can buy them with black instead of chrome, but

in reality i'll probably end up with something similar to what you suggest. a 'wish list' should always be just that. and some things on it should remain unnattainable. an H2 will probably be one of them as will a Cabestan winch or HW Opus V. My Suzuki ac...
