This is a young Thomas Magnum at his father's funeral, right after he inherited the GMT.


Thomas flying TC's chopper and eating a PB&J while wearing it.


Thomas Magnum wearing the GMT and solving an important case!

Yes, i too have this affliction.

Here's a tip. If you have Comcast on demand , you can watch all 8 seasons of Magnum for free. I generally stick to seasons 5-8 because thats when he's wearing the Pepsi Gmt. I get a real kick watching him wearing the watch on all those adventures. He even wears it scuba diving in those Hawaii waters in one episode.

It's also on Netflix. Which episode does it show him scuba diving with it?

I took the pics of Magnum in this thread from my TV. Esquire channel is running all the Magnum PI shows, as well as Miami Vice.

Here is Don Johnson, the coolest guy on the planet, wearing a Presidential on the very first episode from 1984.

Magnum was a slacker compared to Captain Midnight and Ovaltine, "the food drink for rocket power!"

I really enjoy Selleck as the NYC Police Commissioner in Blue Bloods. He doesn't seem to be acting...it's like he's just being himself.
