Did anyone watch the Grammy awards this last weekend? Herbie Hancock looks like he rolls with Brietling.

What do you think?

Looks like a Navi! I looked up more pics of Herbie, and found this one:

it looks like he's wearing a Two Tone Chronomat or Crosswind.. it looks bigger than a chronomat.

Nice find!

I'm not familiar with Herbie's recent work, just the 80's classic "Rockit".

Nice to see he's a Breitling guy!

Another I ran across...former Oklahoma Sooner standout, NFL rookie of the year, NFL Pro Bowl MVP, the Minnesota Viking's Adrian Peterson (Pictured L-R Brady Quinn, Adrian Peterson).....Looks like he's got a little ice around his wrist.

Could it be a Super Avenger?

I'm not a fan of diamond encrusted pieces. I think it robs the timepiece of the craftsmanship. The true beauty is on the inside, but too much on the outside is just a killer for me.

A diamond bezel or diamonds on the dial would be as far as I would go and that's really pushing it for me.

Not sure if anybody else has seen the movie " The Skulls". It was not very good, but had a huge Ling presence. Part of the initiation into the skulls involved being branded on your wrist. Then they are told to put on your Breitlings, to cover the secret brand. Pretty cool. Here is the imdb page for the movie.

Here is the trivia page which mentions the Lings

On occasion on the new season of American Chopper, when Paul Teutul Jr. and fam is doing a reveal of a new bike they built, Paul JR. can be seen wearing what appears to be a Bentley watch!
