If you guys haven't seen #5 (AP Jules Chrono) go check out a photo of that watch, it's gorgeous. I got to try one on a few months ago at my local AD and it blew me away!

That's what I thought it was. Just read an article on it the other day.

I can't believe you guys got the Tudor. I didn't even have a solid guess for that one.

You have to know the watch, but combine that bezel with the fact that the lugs extend almost to the edge of the case and it's pretty recognisable.

I didnt actually know the model name, but I recognized it as a Tudor that I had seen before.

I didn't do well at all- missed 3, 4, 5, 7, 9. At least I didn't get the Breitlings wrong!

I gave myself partial credit on #6, otherwise I got wrong #'s 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13 - granted there wasn't a 13, but betting if there was, I would have gotten it wrong also.

I got half of them right - 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 9. Technically I didn't get any "wrong," since I could tell that I had no idea what they were, and just passed on them. I was a little surprised that among those I didn't recognize, there were some I probably should have been able to, such as 7, 10 and 12.
