If you are in any way familiar with the automotive TV show Top Gear you will know it essentially involves three normal guys goofing around in the most expensive cars in the world, all over world, and getting paid huge sums of money to do so.  The great thing about it is that the three hosts, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May, are just ordinary guyslike you and me who don’t really seem to care that they are on TV and do what most of us could only dream of doing as a living.

When it comes to their own cars though, I couldn’t help but notice that their taste in watches seems to mirror their taste in cars.  Richard Hammond, for example, a small man mind you, tends to have a taste for large and flashy cars and watches.  The lovable weirdo and my personal favorite host James May, furthermore, seems to have a taste for watches and cars that he seems to find “interesting.”  What goes on in his mind I’ll never be able to figure out, but when it comes to tastes in watches and cars, I always leaned toward the big guy, Jeremy Clarkson.

You see Jeremy Clarkson may have money and fame, but underneath it all, he is a ape-like simpleton who wants a car to be a car, and a watch to be a watch.  He’s not a fan of excess and the more noise it makes, and the more it breaks down, the better.  He goes on these huge rants about the watches he’s going to buy, and in one of his latest posts he writes about his newest purchase, the Omega Railmaster, and here it is!

Omega Watches – RAILMASTER

Seen on last night’s episode of Top Gear I keep looking at it and think to myself, hmm…

You see if you know anything about this guy’s watch history you will know that he used to have James Bond’s Seamaster, he used to have a Planet Ocean (and still does I reckon), and now he has this.  He moans about how passionless Omega is yet he seems to be a fanboy at heart.

Nice choice Jeremy!
