Like him or loathe him, Lord Sugar has a dandy collection of watches.
Episode 1 he is sporting a white Daytona ceramic, although could be a cunning marketing ploy for Rolex.
Let’s see what he wears next week...

I also noticed and thought it looked fantastic, having seen so few of these actually being worn. The white dial looked so clean (and very temping in about 10yrs when they're readily available)

He wore the Daytona last series too
I have hankered after a Daytona but they are just a wee bit small on my wrist, plus they seem to get mixed reactions from those who buy them.
It’s the PCL’s that would get me. Mind you if money were no object..Originally Posted by sish101

Hardly impressive given he's flush with cash though imho. That said, I always have a nosey of what's on his wrist too.
If I had his money I'd have a rather nice collection of watches as well........unfortunately I don't.
Didn't realize anyone still watched that program.
"Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. The third time it's enemy action."

Just caught up with this weeks episode. Alan appears to be rocking a common as muck black on black GMTc. Looks amazing though!
In a way I find that the impressive bit. Too many filthy rich folk seem to just go and buy the most expensive thing they can find just to highlight how rich they are. I like the understated nature of his watch given what he could buy if he were so inclined.
I like watching the candidates draw attention to their watches.
Bunch of wrist flickers.
OK, fair point. I like his taste in watches generally - it could be much worse if he threw money at more expensive tosh like Hublot or bling-bling Rolex.
Given the opportunity I'm sure most would have the Daytona as part of their collection.
I've always hankered after one, but after seeing one that my brother bought in the flesh, I have to say I was underwhelmed.
Lovely watch but over hyped and if it was readily available I don’t think as many people would want it.
The new WG on Oysterflex is nice :)
I much prefer the non-ceramic version. It's the black ringed sub dials that don't do it for me. To me it's a step backwards in style to the Zenith models of old. Nothing wrong with the Zenith models looks, but they were of the time. design needs to move forward (even at Rolex glacial pace) not backward.
As to teh Oysterflex, for me, it looks great I tried a RG Yachtmaster with that strap, but I found it clings to the skin and hairs on the wrist, not uncomfortable, just annoying.
Well, I wouldn't.
Too small and I don't like white dials much, so not for me.
I've always wanted to like the Daytona, being a sports car racing fan since my teens (winners of Daytona - and Le Mans - get one as a prize, so I was aware of the Daytona decades before the Sub!), but it never works for me. in photos or in person (some colours do look better than others, though).
I don't know how much disposable cash Lord Sugar has (more than me, for sure), but it seems in character for him to choose a watch he likes, rather than one that makes a statement.
He certainly gives the impression of being in the wealth bracket that wouldn't consider a Daytona a 'premium' product.
At least he hasn't got one of those hideous blue and brown ones...

Of course not, he's doing his TV job, or rather wearing it at work, so it's a daily, even possibly a beater to him, I'd imagineWell, I wouldn't.

Oh yes, I forgot how rough and tumble sitting behind a desk jabbing stubby fingers and stupid sales drones is...
Surprised he doesn't need a G-Shock for such rigorous activities really!

Exactly my point, with such a job you can wear nicer things because they are less likely to get scuffed. Therefore his daily and/or beater
Ha ha, I have to say the daytona has always left me cold, I think I'm just more of a Datejust person. I certainly can't see why they are so much money that's for sure.

He wore a yacht master tonight and In the preview for next week he's got a yellow gold rolex on. Didn't see the dial though
He might wear high quality watches but his Amstrad stuff was pure rubbish..

I'm sure AMS must be Product Placement program hence the collection.
Prime time TV, with a multi millionaire running the show, wannabe entrepreneurs would be drooling over his business dress sense of 'high flyer', hence carefully picked products are worn by him.
Yellow gold Sub today.
Whole point of watching this wretched show now! As soon as he walked in the boardroom in a brown suit I knew it would be something with a bit of colour
No, all his, Patek and Rolex. He buys from Michael Spires.
That program sources some odd people to participate.
It's sadly become a parody of itself. Even the editing to make it look like they're arguing etc is painfully obvious. It's a shame.
Brand ambassador all the way.
+1, those of us who are old enough will remember Amstrad hi- fi and car players, theyvwere chea and poor.
I like Alan Sugar, but I’ve grown tired of the Apprentice; the show’s been done to death and I don’t bother watching thesedays. The best bit is seeing the candidates squirm in the boardroom as Lord Sugar rips them to pieces.
As for the Daytona, it’s a watch that holds zero appeal to me. The previous model was nicer IMO.

Looks stunning to be fair
Was lovely. Last week he had this:

Indeed. Only last year (may have been 2020 tbf) he took to Twitter in an attempt to get hold of s BLNR on jubilee. If he was hitherto spending big money on watches, it wasn't at his local Rolex AD.
I watched it a few years ago when it looked like some actual business was done, agreed it is now a parody of itself.
And do people in the real world really say things like 'Step up to the plate' and discuss 'Skill Sets' ??
Baseball players.
Oh yes! Have you never had the email asking to touch base? It's hilarious listening to some of the people with the talk
Touch base, reach out, connect, join up, get aligned....
Everything except 'talk'.
You obviously haven’t worked for a large enterprise in a while. This is regular “business speak” even worse if the firm has a “business development team” ( “how do you feel about that?” “Shall we unpack that?” Etc.)
Yes people do say that!

My favourite is when people say "can we take this offline" while sitting in a meeting and deciding that particular meeting isn't the time to discuss that matter. People in our place also have a horrible habit of saying "lets have a catch up" when they really mean a meeting then they try make it less like a meeting by sitting on a bloody sofa. Pure wankyness.
He bought the watch from Michael Super’s in Plymouth and paid list price. I was annoyed at the time as I was expecting the first on that Spires was getting in.

No idea what tonight's is. Haven't paid as much attention as previous week's as I'm doing a bit of work. It's a vintage looking watch on black leather. Don't think Rolex for once
Thought it was a skydweller
Insert brand new Rolex model name here 😂
Yep, blue face SS Sky Dweller is my guess.

Blimey... where are the Daily Mail getting their prices from?
What’s he got on tonight I can’t tell
Not sure, not overtly obvious. PP perhaps?
