Driving watches - what do you use? 🏁
In the meantime driving is one of the most ubiquitous human activities so one no longer gets specially lifted out or prepared for it.
Likewise, telling time is as easy as it has ever been and we still obsess over watches 😉 So wondering if there’s occasions when you especially choose a watch to go for a drive or if you have so called ‘driving watches’ in your collection.
A typical driving watch of mine is the Amida Digitrend. A mechanical watch created to mimic a quartz by a company without the R&D resources to develop the real thing, where the design choice made it quite drive friendly.
The Seiko Izul SDAA001has the ability to rotate the dial to whichever angle you desire, making it quite fitting for driving…
The M.A.D.1 had the feature of perfectly matching the Isle of Man Green of the car - otherwise useless for telling time enroute 😂
A watch I have always loved in the car is the Chopard LUC Chrono One - fantastic legibility. Much better in this respect than the Mille Miglia line 🏁
So what are yours?

Very nice post and variety of watches here!
I have no driving watch, but I think I would feel very smart wearing this one! 😅 Have a very nice Sunday. Best, Emmanuel Patek Philippe Ref. 139 (the unusual rectangular shape is supposed to allow the wearer to place the watch on the side of his wrist to ...
Just the kind of idea - and gem - I was looking for 👌🏻👍🏻
Superb choice, as always 🙌🏻👏🏻
Those are wonderful choices and each is inspiring in it’s own way.
these are my contributions: I suspect the VC & Doxa are the least driver type watches, but still. ...
These are all really cool combinations 🙌🏻👌🏻
Of watch and car 🚘 The Doxa really works well in this combination, as does the VC. Thought you would bring out VC’s traditional driving watch, the 1921 😊 Thanks for playing 👍🏻
I thought you had one 😊👍🏻
Keeping fingers crossed that it enters your collection one day 🤞🏻
I got that one covered
Drive de Cartier, obviously! BTW is that Metta Catharina leather in your first shot? ...
Great choice indeed!
The Amida is on a Delugs calf leather strap 😊 Let me join in with the Drive 😉 ...
Well done
Almost the same shirt too! I need to start playing with aftermarket straps.
