GR86 What watch to match GR86?

[Martin_uk]

I'm sure many others on here are into watches as well?

I was thinking about what watch would match the car?

Should it be Japanese, maybe Seiko or ?

Colour cordinated?

Manual or automatic

Something sporty but reasonably priced?

Interested in your thoughts and suggestions

Watches also covered on this thread.

It is time for a wristshot

Love the debate about watches, got a few automatic Seikos, a JDM Orient and a Bulova myself, but could I suggest moving that debate into the Off Topic section of the forum So, here we go 😀 I have never been a collector of watches - only one at a time and at the moment it is the Seiko SPB157J1...

Maybe a Seiko Sportura Kinetic?

Shunbun!

Has to be a vintage Casio - does everything a watch should do, better, cheaper, and harks back to a forgotten age.

I got a red G-Shock to match the car
Both Japanese.. works for me!

There's a Citizen GT86 watch.. maybe that if you want the 86 bit albeit the wrong logo?

Whatever I happen to be wearing.

It should definitely be Japanese.

Colour cordinated?

No.

Manual or automatic

Good question.

Something sporty but reasonably priced?

Sounds sensible.

Could this be the one to go with my Saphire Blue with Black wheels?

I’m over my watch fetish. Had to bin the Apple, it went off…

IWC spitfire is the daily. Roli is more an investment piece because I feel a w4nker wearing it

The Roli was bought with 4 krugerands and £750 that I bought when gold was £190 an oz. So it cost £1500, and now worth x8

What watch to match the GR86?

I think, comrades, we all know the correct answer to this.

Just a humble, reasonably priced quartz chronograph...

Because if the GR86 didn't exist, I wouldn't own
this very watch...

I run a Fenix 7X every day. When the strap goes as they all do eventually I'll be getting one in Blue to match the car.

If I’d gone for a Blue 86 it would have been the GMT II Pepsi but now it has to be a GMT II 126713 GRNR to match the Magnetite Grey. They’ll probably turn up at around the same too if my AD gets their bloody finger out!

You would have to get the wheels painted Gold to colour co-ordinate with bezel numerals

I might go so far as gold calipers but, wheels? Nah, too Subaru Impreza for me!

Possibly the only one in the forum, but I'm a fan of a Skagen.... low profile/thickness, good value, smart, and gets the job done... kinda the same as the 86

TFW - Your Rolex AD calls you out of the blue and you have to ignore the call to get your ‘Ducks in a row’ before ringing them back..
