In that photo the blue almost looks black. Dont like that, hoping it actually looks blue on wrist

Whats up with these new sticker logos that can barely be read? Is the purpose to make them disappear on the dial 👎

Gandor Bronkhorst answers the question "is this watch cock... or cool?"

According to this bloke's science, "it's a watch that will last a lifetime", he's 100% sure!

The blue does look nice in the video.

Not new, my yellow dial Calibre S Aquaracer has a silver logo. Totally unreadable.

Fo sure! I am not young but I have only seen one Mcqueen movie, and it was insanely bad 😁 just ask any young people today if they like Steve McQueen and they gonna look at you like you retarded. Relying on a person whose audience will eventually be dead, literarily, will of course not work for ever.

This is why Omega is so brilliant with James Bond. This fictional character can live forever and be renewed, ensuring that a young audience of fans keep the status of the name hot.

Awesome analysis, Jim.
Which brought me to the blashempic idea, that a modern sequel to the Le Mans movie with Ryan Gosling as Michael Delaney might solve this problem. Ryan Gosling is experienced with remakes (Blade Runner) and Mr. Arnault could produce the movie with his pocket change. 😉

God no. That’s worse than the complaining.

I think a hollywood over the top remake of Lemans is a great idea if TH wants to ensure they can cash in on Mcqueen's legacy in the future. I cant remember ever seeing anything with this Ryan Gosling person but it makes sense to make him the lead actor.

Or maybe they should please the younger crowd by having a woman play Steve McQueen's role? 👍 Seems fitting with modern society

Yeah but I meant this new type of logo that they refer to as "sticker logo". Your calibre s looks like a classic applied logo, even though it is difficult to read

Drive is good. If not a bit graphic. La La Land if you like classic old school Hollywood.

Yes, they could recruit Sofia Floersch (DTM and 24H of Le Mans driver) for that role:



or Beitske Visser (W-Series and 24H of Le Mans driver):



or both… although they would need to move from Richard Mille to TAG Heuer first! 😁

😁 But they look quite cool, and you need a cool woman to play McQueen’s role 😉

Anyone else expecting more than 4 aquaracers from the Watch Week?
