When he drives by in his Bentley, lambo or g-wagon there is usually money sticking out through the door gaps.

Probably has tissue boxes and toilet paper rolls made out of $100 bills.

Cool to know..even more painful knowing that it's probably a genuine piece. Probably just the 44 with the white subdials then.

guys

Words fail me. Some people just don't deserve to buy and own these pieces. I assume he's done it to impress people with his cavalier attitude to money, but I just find it idiotic.

Same. With all these disasters, natural and manmade, here in the US, 30-40K could go a long way in helping a lot of these people. But then again, it's not my money and I am allocating funds into the same watch as well

I am so messed up, I quite liked that. Schumis and puppies, these are a few of my favourite things! But seriously I'm just hoping he put something on the strap so the pup would only nibble there.

I know what you're saying, I kind of feel guilt over spending this sort of money on watches - particularly multiple ones - but I feel I've earned the right and I take the best possible care of them. Maybe his puppy pic isn't what it seems, but if it is he really doesn't deserve to be privileged to own a gold Schumi if that's how he values and respects it.

agree.

It shouldn't matter, but the fact that it is an irreplaceable LE makes it worse to me.

That makes me sick. Yes, I realize people have the right to burn or waste money how they see fit, but to watch such beautiful timepieces be abused like that is idiotic and insulting.

If you look at his IG account there's also a video of the pup chewing on a RM.

I didn't notice that it was a Schumi! Doesn't help this case at all!

At least we know categorically that APs are more delicious than RMs now.

They could still be replicas, he might have bought some just for this stunt. I've seen people buy them just to film smashing them with a hammer, makes this video seem like child dog's play.

If they are real, he has a few screws that need tightening.

Something is going wrong with quoting on this website, clearly not the right photo.
