Cool but darn, 43mm case size. I'm a slender guy, sort of F1 sized, so way too big for me. Search results for: 'L4231' Which is a problem I have with most of the men's watches during the past 20 years.
Wade, the shape of your wrist and the thickness of the strap are important too. For instance, my Panerai 026k (44mm) is more comfortable on my wrist than my Tudor Black Bay (41mm).
Just found this thread and made me wonder if anyone knew the history of this watch. Its a mido watch, says MULTIFORT LUXE and SUPER AUTOMATIC RM at the bottom. The back Has Paul Frere engraved. Switzerland/ waterproof/ mido/antimagnetic. I contacted Paul Frere when I purchased but unfortunately between the time I bought it and sent the letter he died.

@redgts : May have you asked the seller where he got/bought your Mido watch ? It's pretty unusual to have a red sf scudetto instead of a black prancing horse.
On the fabled Mexico circuit, Hublot pays tribute to Scuderia Ferrari's historic victories at the Mexican Grand Prix Hublot has created 10 unique Big Bang Ferrari Tourbillon Mexico pieces to mark its symbolic return In 1990, Hublot was just 10 years old when Scuderia Ferrari had its last victory on the Mexico circuit, before it disappeared from the Formula 1 world championship calendar altogether at the end of the 1992 season. In 2015, Hublot is celebrating the 10th anniversary of its iconic Big Bang model while racing returns to the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, around the bends of the track redesigned by circuit architect Hermann Tilke. To celebrate the Grand Prix's hotly anticipated return to Mexico, Hublot has created a collection of 10 unique Big Bang Ferrari Tourbillon Mexico pieces. Once again, Hublot's R&D department has produced its best to create a Ferrari collection which offers a perfect balance between the tradition of a skeleton tourbillon complication and the sleek, innovative design of the Big Bang case. All ten watches sport an identical middle and mechanism: a Big Bang case, and a hand-wound skeleton tourbillon developed and manufactured entirely by Hublot. These pieces boasts a power reserve indicator on the dial showing the 115-hour reserve (5 days) of the HUB6016 movement. A feat of innovation sees each piece adorned with different materials, original composites and alloys, the signatures of Hublot's innovative approach King Gold, carbon, or carbon ceramic encrusted with gold, titanium. Their aesthetic is based on the colours of Mexico with its dominant green. A Ferrari F1 -90 is screen printed on the sapphire back of the case in tribute to the 1990 race. To reinforce the symbolic nature of these 10 pieces, each watch is accompanied by a piston from the victorious car and a full size replica of the helmet worn by Sebastian Vettel, bearing his autograph. The first evokes the past, and the strength of a crucial technical component; the second, the present and the future, through this most personal part of a driver's kit. On the eve of the Mexican Grand Prix, Hublot has invited clients and friends of the brand to come and exclusively discover this collection. And an opportunity to see how you measure up against Sebastian Vettel on another type of circuit/challenge: a watchmaker's bench. The German driver is facing a new challenge, to screw the 6 H-shaped screws into the Big Bang's bezel in just 01 minute 01 second (similar to the time to race one lap) - and hold the title. Twenty five years ago, Scuderia Ferrari celebrated its 99th victory as a constructor. As the last two races of the 2015 championship approach, it has 224 Grand Prix victories to its name. These successes have ensured Scuderia Ferrari holds most of the circuit records. Hublot and Scuderia Ferrari share the same vision in terms of their constant pursuit of performance, innovation and pioneering materials. On the circuit in Mexico, they are the natural race leaders.

A friend of mine recently bought this watch at a second-hand store. It does not run or wind. The dial says Girard-Perregaux and it has the Ferrari rectangular logo. It is a chronometer date watch with a screw-on back, which is stamped with the horse logo and has a number stamped below that. It is marked on the back "stainless steel back water resistant 100m/330ft The crown has 3 positions, and is a screw-on type (for water proofing). The crown has the horse on it. The stainless steel metal bracelet has the horse stamped on it. I will take it to someone who will remove the back (I don't have the tool) and reveal the movement inside, which may hold some clues. I attach pictures of the watch in case someone may have seen one like it (I looked on the internet and could not see one like it). I will provide information about the movement when I have access to the inside. Any information about whether this watch may be a genuine GP Ferrari model (and if so which one) would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

You're right, it's a fake. Japanese movement inside, quartz. At least it works with a new battery so it's not a total loss!
Guys, I have had this watch for some time and would love to know what it is worth as I think it's time to move it on. It is a Girard-Perregauax Ferrari watch. On the back it has the following engraved: chronographe a ratirapante Manufactured specialement pour Ferrari serie limite numeretee prototype 1994 I was told that it is a limited edition and was given to the Formula One drivers of the time. It does not have any papers and the box is not the original box.
