Billions (Showtime)

Last episode Bobby wearing an AP by the bracelet, but couldn't get a good look at the model. The previous season he was wearing a Cartier Roadster.

It was weird he was wearing a Cartier in season one. Writers were out of step there, should have been an AP in 1 and probably a PP grand comp or RM in 2. I just can't take Damien's accent in this.

Yeah, I thought the Cartier SS roadster was also an odd choice, but Damian's character is blue collar guy who became super rich, so he probably just doesn't care what others think about his watch selection. Also Damian's American accent is always the same. I remember back to watching his sitcom on NBC's Life and Homeland, I never saw Band of Brothers to be honest.

Your right, I had a good look at it last night's episode, you can definitely see the chrono pushers and the dial is boutique blue.

What watch is Paul giamatti wearing? It seems to be a gold dress watch, but I can't make out what it is...

Hard to believe a billionaire would wear a $5K Cartier Roadster. Everything in the show and his character screams money is no object. Somebody should call Showtime and give horology advice

So the question is: If you were a billionaire, which watch would you choose?

I think he should be rocking a RM for this show. Fits the character perfectly IMO.

This episode was towards the end of season 1, I didn't see it at the time as Damian is wearing his blazer most of the scenes.

I agree, but they should show him with a variety of watches on, as they show him with many different luxury cars.

They did? I always saw him driving the range rover SVE. Never saw him with anything else. His staff had nicer cars.

Only thing he really flashes with is his house.

Do you mean Range Rover SVR? That's what I want next. I wouldn't call it flash but it's an amazing car with 0-62 in 4.7 s.

Season 1, he had the RR Sport, Convertible Bentley, few Porsches, Axe gave Wendy a Maserati Grandturismo as a bonus. This season he had a classic Porsche, haven't seen other cars.

Yea saw the 993 turbo. Forgot about that when I posted. But I don't recall him driving a Bentley or Porches in season 1.

My favorite was that bright blue vantage v12 s the guy wearing the wire drove. I really just liked that color.

He wore a black RM once on the show. He usually wears a cartier roadster though.

From those shots I would have said royal oak city of sails be happy but doesn't match later picture where it seems the pushers are offset from the winder, and that would make it a more recent ROC.

Well Soros wears a simple SS 5167, but the guy is no reference, for those who did research there is a video where he explains that during the war, him and the guy who saved him, he is a jew, were confiscating properties from jews who were sent to concentration camps, when asked if it bothered him he said absolutely not, the years of nazi occupation were the happiest of his life, WOW, he sent countries in recession and toppled regimes, finances terrorists and others, if hell exists well I'm pretty sure they're waiting for him, he's the guy who would want no borders for cheap labor for his buddies' corporations, basically he's a communist, all poor and working, but good times for the oligarchs...

A Tshirt and a watch do not reflect the same statement of wealth as a billionaire. A car and watch more like it. If he changes his watches like he does his shirts than fine. But he wears the Roadster the whole damn season 1 .

He did drive a rolls in season 1 as well. And his character is an interesting one. Who knows, his wife could have gotten him the watch, or honestly he could have no reason at all. He can have anything he wants, he wouldn't need to be specific about his watch at all. At the same time, I could also see him wearing one of the 2499's that go for god knows how much just because it would piss off one of his competitors or adversaries who would want one...

I love that he changed out of his dress shirt and into the Megadeth tee, all with Megadeth blasting in the background. I definitely spotted the AP, too! I love the show.
