Hit a car show today and took a bunch of pics, but these two in particular were fun because they pair with the watch I wore:


Heuer Monaco 1133B 'McQueen' and the Ford GT by j0hnnycache, on Flickr


Heuer Monaco 1133B 'McQueen' and a Caterham SP/300.R with the Gulf colors like those seen on Steve McQueens car in the movie Le Mans by j0hnnycache, on Flickr

Nice Monaco, Queue.

By the way, in the movie _Le Mans_, McQueen drove a Porsche 917 in Gulf colors, not a Ford GT40. However, a GT40 was used as a camera car during filming.

I think I have a picture of a 917 Porsche in the mix with the watch as well. I'll take a look. (Not!)

Cool watch though
I didn't say it was a GT40. I said it is a Caterham with the colors of a Gulf GT40.

You were correct about the 917. I must have remembered reading about the GT40 and it stuck...

Love the speedy. I only own tudor and rolex but if I was ever to get a Omega it would definitely be a speedmaster. Very cool looking
