I have a rejection letter from him when I was hoping to use his liking in a short film I was making when I was in my 20's... He said no so gracefully...

Not sure about the watch per se, yet PLN was a gentleman, a talented racer, and truly great family man. Hung with him during a few racing events at LRP. Paul's Hole In The Wall Gang Camp for kids and many other ways he helped others.... Yet he was always this down to Earth, kind, caring guy. Saw him at the track a few days before he passed just hanging out and enjoying the atmosphere <sigh>
Anywho, many know about the watch, yet imho it is THE MAN who made the world a better place.
