Show us your "money's no object" watch

You've just got all six numbers on the lottery
what would your dream watch to buy.

Well mine would be this 1490 1930s S.S Rolex Prince.

Actually that is supposed to be black - in fact, that's the Black Tahitian MOP dial. A bit hard to read the time from certain angles, but with that baby on your wrist, who gives a rat's ass about time? LOL!!

What is with you and blue hands, mate? You have this terrible fixation. Have you ever seen anyone for this problem? You really should, you know.
