    I just got done watching the episode (Series 12 episode 4) where the guys travel over 700 miles on one tank of fuel (again). They also test the Pagani Zonda and send the Bugatti 'round the track.

    This time Jeremy's watch really stuck out to me. Wow. I just cannot put my finger on what it was. I am sure the watch savants here know exactly what it is.

    I want it.

    Can you help?

    It would help if you at least time-marked when the watch appears or better yet, did a screen capture. Thanks.

    I would say by looking at the size, and the shape of the crown, it is either a large IWC or perhaps a Graham or some sort. Sorry, kind of hard to make out.

    At first look, I thought TW steel, but they don't have the crown on the left with a single pusher.
    Uboat does, but I haven't seen that dial on their watches.
    Probably a smaller company that makes a Uboat looking watch

    Clearly I am a moron, it has arabics, I think Ylshih hit the nail on the head. This dude is goooood at this game! He named a vintage piece I had by a crappy image I had without the brand on the movement. I don't like playing this game with Ylshih :)

    No sponsorship on the BBC.

    In fact Clarkson has openly stated in the newspapers that he has never accepted sponsorship or gifts because of his position, even to the extent that he turned down a gift of an Aston DB9 when his Ford GT had to be returned for multiple faults.
