I agree with the poster above that Bremont would be the perfect watch partner for Morgan. A very British company making quality watches at a similiar relative price point to Morgan Cars.

I have spoken to quite a few TM'ers about watches, yes it is a fetish of mine, however, the best Morgan watch is the Hublot Big Bang Aero which is a high quality device with a little more presence. Of course finding a nice one in the UK is a different matter. There are a couple for sale in New York at $20.000 but I'm not that brave !!

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear! I quote from the Morgan website.......... • Box – individually hand-made by acclaimed Cotswold furniture designer Howard Butler from the same ash and walnut used to build the Morgan chassis and dash and lined with Muirhead zero-carbon leather.

Reg Too flashy and modern for the traditional Morgans IMHO and too expensive in relationship to the cars but a watch for the Aero owner perhaps.

Do I detect the "Ghost of CEOs past" in this? It is naff and the strap has a cut leather edge that looks as if it cost 2/6 down the Portobello Road.... I agree the strap looks like some kind of truss arrangement ..... it would keep reminding me of things to come  a definite no no. I could buy a new bike for the cost of one of these watches  in fact I think I will just so  see's I'm spending wisely. Seriously I know we own Morgans but 13K on a watch
