[Vintage-race] drivers wearing watches

Bill:
 
Thanks for the "pen" reminder.  I have a few as well.  But, nowhere as many
as you.
 
Nice collections!

We ended up as a group of about 6 racers who then
began discussing our watch collections.  We generally had far more watches
than collector/race cars.  Must be the synergy of our cars & often,
mechanical watches, or what are know as "complications."  And, likely our
penchant to collect things.

Interesting - I never thought of the connection before.
 
I have 9 cars, 197 old watches and 282 fountain pens (any other pen
collectors that race?)
