Up until my retirement 15 years ago I always wore an analog dial watch. I found it impossible to count a pulse with a digital watch. When I retired I put the last one in the drawer and now I can't even find it.

Ya know I have a developed a fascination for good old fashioned mechanical cog type watches.......strange really as since I've retired I have no regard for time at all.

Now thats a “PONY”——————it may take Bobby V or Fuji to blow up the write up, but believe me——— that is a nice piece of kit
Will take a million dollar supercar to keep up with it !

There should be a car running there which is a tribute to a Hillclimb racer named: Georg Plasa. He was killed doing what he loved and KW Suspension's owner was a personal friend and purchased his other car to restore and run at Goodwood. It is a BMW with a F1 Judd V-8 under the bonnet and makes some of the sweetest sounds on the planet.
