Spotted on TV
Was watching the Discovery Channel on TV this morning, (raining hard outside) I believe the show was Austin Stevens "Snakehunter" He was in the outback trying to catch some big lizard, I noticed right off he had a Rolex on his wrist. After continuing to watch the show, I saw that is was a stainless steel late model by the clasp. Then I got a good look and saw he was wearing a GMT II. I must say it looked good on his wrist. I hope this isn't going to be like the VW bug phenomenon. You never notice how many bugs are out there until you buy one then you see them everywhere.

It can get frustrating trying to see the details on a watch when spotted on TV.
Anyway good spotting

Watch spotting is a serious habit. Proceed with caution.

Larry McReynolds wears a Daytona with a white dial. That's all I could tell at the time.

I may be wrong, but i think that the geico caveman wears a gv milgauss in that commercial where three doors down is singing "let me by myself."
