Ferrari Pit Crew Watch

Cheaper than the GP above!

I dunno how "comfortable" rubber is against the wrist...any diver's among us?
Pretty common on dive watches........

 

Rubber bands are just fine. They are comfortable and very durable.

It looks like this watch is an automatic, which is great. It always amazes me that GP, Panerai, etc., can charge 5K for an automatic when the real cost is a couple of hundred bucks.

 

What's the old saying...."For $12.95 you can get a Timex at the drugstore, anything past that is 'jewelry'"......

Truthfully I rarely put a wristwatch on anymore as my cute lil' cellphone tells me what time it is.....LOL!

It won't do lap times though......

 

I think the movement is a quartz movement...

 

The movement is a quartz G10.211, which is actually a pretty good caliber.
That movement is in quite a few chronograph models in upwards of $1000

I prefer mine - G-P F360GT pit crew edition. 1 of 14 worldwide. Leather *and* rubber bracelets. Cost to me - $0. Value? Priceless!

(how *did* you think I picked this nickname???)

 

Do you have a picture?

 

Rubber straps are good. While in Maranello i bought one of my sons a MOMO watch with a rubber strap.

 

We shall see how comfortable the rubber band is-I just ordered one today.

 

WOW!!! that watch is now wanted by me!!!!!!!!

 

I do, but unfortunately, am unable to post as computer at home is flaking out....

It's pretty much the same as the other G-P 360GT watches (which had been advertised in several of the national Ferrari mags at the time - 2002, 2003), but with a gray prancing horse in place of the yellow S/F shield. And special engraving on the back w/ our names and "Pit Crew" beneath. The watches are registered in G-P's database under each of our names (rather than the usual s/n). And even the box it came in is a work of art - high gloss bright red finish w/ large S/F shield on top, and the softest leather lining you ever felt. Very nice. Heck, the box alone is worth at least half the price of admission!

As I mentioned, they gave us both the rubber and black leather w/ red stitching straps, but I've since bought the titanium bracelet, as I knew the leather wouldn't last that long (a year at best) even though it looks GREAT, and the rubber isn't so comfortable. Besides, the ti bracelet really gives it the "look".

Pretty cool stuff.

ANYONE OUT THERE GET THEIR WATCHES YET?

I ORDERED MINE BUT DID NOT RECEIVE IT YET.

 

I e mailed them and they responded to expect delivery in November. It is now listed as sold out on the website- I wanted to order a few more as gifts.

 

I received the same email " to be delivered in the end of October" cant wait!! Jon in delaware

 

l would love to get one, anyone got one to sell or where l can get one

 

They're not available on the ferraristore.com site anymore.... At least I cant find it....

 

Friend of mine has ordered one and has also been told that it will only be delivered by the end of Oct.......seems like a well priced product....

 

I called to see if I could order three more. They are sold out and will not have any more available- "limited edition" I was told. Question is, do I keep the one I am getting for myself or give it as a gift? I bet they there will be some showing up on E Bay as soon as they deliver.

 

Darn you George for posting that. I guess I'll be receiving an early Christmas present.

 

Ferrari store tracking has said mine has been shipped, so not much longer to wait!.....want it now

 

glad i got mine the day before it sold out. but i don't know if i should keep it or sell it.

 

If anyone bought one and is willing to let it go for MSRP because they changed their mind, I think I'll buy one. I just can't afford to pay over 200 Euro being in high school in all .
