Tough one... Sure its AP? First model that came across my mind was Classic Edward as its shape that Arnold is wearing seems pretty rectancular, but it looks much bigger than the edward series. So probably not a AP.

Thats his own designed watch. It looks like a Bell & Ross, costs $100,000 much of which goes to charity. I think it was all comissioned while he was governor.

It doesn't look like an AP to me.
I'm sorry but I can't help you.

It is actually not a Bell & Ross at all...some kind of one off tank quartz for charity. Curious thing is if he is wearing it did no one else find it worth $100k even for a charitable cause?

BR-AVO members panned it completely back in 2012.

Conclusion...not and AP and not B&R

Thats it.

As far as I know, there aren't many around & Arnold enclosed a letter to the new owner expressing thanks for supporting the charity.

He doesn't seem to wear it much as most pics I see of him these days he's wearing the 341.

EDIT: Just Googled this watch & it came with a humidor & limited edition cigars. Plus the price doesn't seem to be anywhere near 100K. Only 100 made though. I think what I read before was before it was released & the price must have been a guess.

Yes. Those! Yuck. That's what happens when you get old and all those big "awesome" muscles turn to flab.

Well it wasn't cheating to use steroids. Everyone did/does in the competition bracket he was in. He was pretty open about it.

You're totally right, steriods are not cheating If everyone is cheating, is it not still cheating?? Whether it was sanctioned or not, it's was and is cheating. However I did love the movie. Pumping Iron......

It isn't cheating if it is sanctioned. They have a totally separate league for natural bodybuilding that competes steroid free.

Legality is another issue....
