Hello all,

I've been surfing the forum for a while and finally got around to signing up. Hope y'all don't mind my first post being a question!

I saw Robin Williams on several talk shows lately. Bill Maher, Jay Leno, etc. On all of them, he was wearing the same watch and I'd love to know what it is. As best I can tell, it's a large chronometer with a black dial and band, possibly rubber. Anyone else see this? Anyone know how to find out what it was?

Thanks,

WS

He seems to be a pretty big watch guy. I know that he is an avid Panerai collector and also owns a few Muellers and a Parmagani.

He was wearing a 104 or 90 while he was making the talkshow rounds.

I know when he's here in Toronto Robin frequents the "mink mile" where some higher end AD's/shops are. An AD I know sold him a GP Sea Hawk II Pro Titanium. This might be the one.
Smart Guy.

Thanks for the ideas. I've looked, as best I can, at the watchs suggested and I don't think that's what I saw. Keep the ideas coming! Maybe someone will have seen it and recognize it.

Regards,

WS

Hello wellstroked and welcome to TRF.

Thanks for the greetings. FWIW, I have a pretty good ticket to get in the forum.........my daily wear watch for the last 25 years is a beautiful Rolex Thunderbird. Wouldn't trade it for anything.
