Philip Serrell on Bargain Hunt with the legend that is Charlie Ross
Cracking picture that with Mick talking to the rock god that is Pete Townshend. Who is the guy behind, looks a little like John Fogerty (CCR). Any detail on this photo, looking at Pete I’m guessing 1980-1982 period.

Tom Clancys Jack Ryan Season 4 / VORTIC Military Edition
I just finished watching season four and what pops up? All screen-grabs from episode six (the last one). Enjoy. A great watch. Not cheap.
Celebrity Appearance: Jack Ryan
Years ago, we sent some Military Edition watches to John Krasinski and Michael Kelly, who star in Amazon Prime’s hit show Jack Ryan.
Just before the launch of this year’s Military Edition watches, we got some exciting news — new interviews are hitting the press in which the star actors are promoting season 3 of Jack Ryan, and they’re wearing Vortic Watches!
“It's so cool. We've started some conversations with [John and Michael] and maybe I can do a whole episode about product placement and how that works. But, what happened there was we got a watch on Michael Kelly in season three of Jack Ryan and that was the first edition. I think he's actually wearing my personal watch because we didn't have many extras. And John Krasinski saw it on Mike Kelly's wrist and was just like, Why don't I get one? So they emailed us and they were like, can we get a watch for John Krasinski?” - R.T. Custer
Michael Kelly can actually be seen in season 3 of Jack Ryan wearing our first edition military watch, but John Krasinski didn’t get his until after shooting was complete, so we’ll have to wait until season 4 airs in the next few years to see that!

Reminded me of this:
I'm sure it's not Fogerty. The photo is at RFK Stadium in Philadelphia on September 25, 1982.

Thanks, one of those more interesting photos. I wonder what they are doing and looking at.
Noticing the empty stands in the distance, I suspect they're just chilling out prior to their evening concert.
My OCD kicked in so I had to go looking largely because I saw the Stones on that tour in the UK and I didn’t recall them playing the US that year.
Seems it was 25 September 1981 not 82
Other bands on the bill - Journey and George Thorogood & The Destroyers. No idea whether Pete T made an appearance on stage or not.
As to what they are doing? Possibly watching The Destroyers who were awesome live. They also did some of UK leg of the tour in 1982

Alternatively I am completely wrong and it is 1982 and The Who played there that night. So Mick is the guestMy OCD kicked in so I had to go looking largely because I saw the Stones on that tour in the UK and I didn’t recall them playing the US that year.

Went to see Meg 2 on Saturday and immediately clocked JayStay wearing a CWC diver on a grey nato.
All I could think of for most of the film was that being 300m rated it wouldn't have survived scampering about at the bottom of the Mariana.

I've posted him here before, but he he doesn't half wear a watch well.

Rolex Platinum Daytona for the owner of Goodwood
Looks like he’s doing the old “Is it time to chuck the NATO in the washing test”!
A pleasant surprise to open this month's Hi-Fi News and see a picture of Leonard wearing his G10.
I know we've already had a picture here of Leonard wearing his G10, but here's another one.

Love Pete’s typically deadpan expression. He probably isn’t thinking “when is this berk going to shut up”, but he might be.

For those who think a watch needs to cover the width of your wrist - Ernest Hemingway begs to differ.
Smaller watches are always sexier on a man.

I have no idea what watch this but comment from Youtube:
"Keke Rosberg with that hair, the moustache and smoking is cooler than all F1 drivers together in the last 10 years."

On a similar theme - here's Jim Clark with a wristwatch and a ciggie on. I must admit he's not quite carrying it off with the same panache as Keke.
Actually I wonder if that really is Jim Clark, he was only 32 when he died. EDIT: it's Innes Ireland.
