Default Who's into watches? What kind of watch you think would go nice with the ITR?

I love timepieces and just pondering the idea of buying something that would go with the R and complement with the interior wether its the red stiching or dials. If you guys have seen anything or are into watches then share your opinions. Plz no overpriced watches lol

I'll start I like the watch not a fan of the last name but it does have racing heritage which the Itr does too.

Louis chevrolet 12500 or 12800

To the 2nd one (12800) is the nicest. The 3rd has a nice face, but I don't care for the alligator leather band.

How much are the Louis Chevrolet's?

Seiko, which is a Japanese company with Japanese movements, has several watches with a black and red theme. I own two. Also, I have a Citizen (which is Japanese as well) with a black/red theme.

All are decent watches for under $500.

If you really want a racing heritage, start looking at a Tag Heuer or something similar.

This is the watch that I currently have on right now:



Believe I picked it up at Kohls, actually.

Maybe you should Contact the authorized MUGEN dealer listed above (King motorsports) they should be able to give you an idea.

I dont know about awful may not be your particular taste but the band and watch is basically built based on the R IMO the band in the pic is similar to the tweed on the itr door panels and the red stitching is another obvious character in the interior as well. but like you said there is another OPTION listed above also @ kingmotorsports.com

I'm not that interested. But my guess is probably a large maker like Casio. I can't see the watch being a Seiko, Citizen, etc and having the Mugen name on it for only $400. After all, this is the same company that charges $31 for a set of license plate bolts.

Wish I still had a pic of it but Acura had a watch made exclusively for the Type R when it came out. A friend of mine worked at the dealership at the time and he picked one up. Truthfully the thing was hideous though

These are some nice time pieces. The Seiko Bar Honda watch is retarded. I definitely want one of those. Although this watch doesn't complement the interior of an ITR such as others with red stitching and black wrist band, it represents a part of racing heritage. I like it and it complements my car.

I thought every teenage DB wearing diamond earings was more a sign of the end-times myself.

Sure does seem that way and that's why I love to eat at Chick fil A where they still have a backbone to stand up against queers and those moral-less people who support fagg's!!!

Even Honda-tech censors fagg.
