I was just watching Bobby Flay cook some amazing looking things on the cooking channel when I saw what I think was a beautiful looking Datejust on his wrist. Suddenly, the food lost its desirability.

He has worn a classic datejust for a while now....quite a few of the chefs are into watches, Paula Dean wore a lady dj.....Guy F. wears huge watches.....

why did the food become undesirable?

My first thought as well; the way he said it sounded like the watch had made him sick or some such...

Dr. Robert · 2 November 2013, 07:55 AM

I ate at his place in NYC, Mesa Grill, not impressed

kk77 · 3 November 2013, 01:21 AM

I saw in a few episodes where he wore day date.

rolio · 3 November 2013, 01:25 AM

Yea, I've seen a lot of head-turning watches on these cooking shows. Is it their own, or part of wardrobe? my nephew used to say.

sea-dweller · 3 November 2013, 01:27 AM

I have never bothered to see if Giada has a watch on or not!!!

Knappo 1307 · 3 November 2013, 01:47 AM

Giddy up.....

HORNBLOWER · 3 November 2013, 02:58 AM

Nothin puts me off my food.

Same thing I thought at the Mesa in Vegas. His food on TV looked way better!

TV chef Nick Stellino is a real WIS...He has written on blogs about various obscure vintage movements, etc.
Kinda to watches what Jay Leno is to all things technical about obscure vintage cars.

I have! You can't miss the yellow gold gmt iic (green face) she wears on occasion

kbutler1 · 4 November 2013, 01:13 AM

I think I have seen Andrew Zimmern wearing a Rolex as well in some shows along with Guy Fieri.

Surprised to see several contestants on Chopped as well wearing a Rolex.

jcatral14 · 4 November 2013, 01:34 AM

Bobby's Burger Palace is pretty good

VICI · 4 November 2013, 02:54 AM

Just saw one where he was wearing a WG DD

Strcdan · 4 November 2013, 08:59 AM

I ran into flay at 2:00am in south beach one night. He was walking alone back to his hotel pretty drunk. We talked for a good while, and he was wearing that dj at the time too. Nicest guy I met!! Guy fieri likes the big face Breitlings. Haven't met him yet

Defiancekofb · 4 November 2013, 09:02 AM

Flay usually rotates a TT DJ and a Platinum Day-Date.

mikkolopez · 5 November 2013, 01:12 AM

Saw Andrew Z wearing a red Tag F1 in some of his show.

And yes, I never bothered seeing what Giada had on her wrist, was busy watching her. Come to think of it I don't remember what she was cooking most of the time.

Ate at his place at The Borgata in AC. The food was flat out bad.

Mesa Grill is overrated. Average dishes with 5 star prices.

saw the ops answer (funny) but i've spoken to foodies in the past who believe chefs or food preppers should never wear watches, bracelets or rings when handling food. only servers are exempt.

i don't agree with wrist jewelry bans for chefs but whatever...

As Ralph Kramden would say, "The food there is no good, how many tractor-trailers do you ever see parked outside?"

wantonebad · 5 November 2013, 07:12 AM

I've had food at his place in Vegas, AC, NYC and Paradise Island, Nassau Bahamas each time I've over paid for mediocre food. It started in Nassau, it was bad but then again so is the Nobu in Atlantis so I decided it was worth three more tries and I got burnt each time.

mikkolopez · 5 November 2013, 06:37 PM

I'll take Giada everytime all the time ... then we can order Chinese take-out.
