Mel, what’s the significance of Gulf here? My only recollection are the gas stations.

The Gulf livery is famous in motor racing. Some of the most famous race drivers drove cars fitted out in the Gulf colors.

It's one of my favorite color combinations of pale blue and orange.

Here are some examples...

LOVE the Gulf livery colors…and that date!!!🔥😎👏

I know right...with today being the 20th and 20 being one of the most famous numbers of Gulf racing...and that great large date...I could not resist wearing it today.

Loving the gulf colors Mel 💯

Thanks, Mel! Appreciate you taking time to share the information and these wonderful examples.

Btw, this has been cropping up in my feed. I have no info on the brand.

Absolutely killer Gulf colors!

I think they even look better than Martini.

Badass

Love the classic racing vibe

F$&@ing coolest race car ever, period, full stop.

Ferro & Co is a really cool microbrand. Bob and Ary are great.

I have a whole mini-collection of Ferro watches and they just finished launching another cool watch based on 1970s sector dial. I suggested they offer DLC coating and being the super cool guys that they are...they made it happen. Here are some pics from the Kickstarter campaign...

Here are some other Ferro watches in the collection including the one on your feed...

...enjoy!

Would you be mad if I said, I should have known? Btw, the silver dial with the red stripe down the right side for the win.

No - of course I wouldn't be mad Rich. Unless you meant that I'm "mad" like in crazy and then I probably have to agree 😉

Here's a picture of the full set...I haven't gotten around to getting wrist shots of all of them (still need wrist shots of two more chronos)...they did five of the automatics and four of the quartz chronos...I agree the silver dial with the red stripe is pretty bitchin'...

I tried to get Bob to create a watchbox for them that would mimic an old Hot Wheels case, but I guess there wasn't enough interest.

Could you imagine having the full set and being able to display them in something like this...

You are really really a watch meseum. One day maybe you could shoot your watch meseum.

Made my day! That brings me back. I had four older siblings. The hot wheels and racetracks got passed down as well as the Tyco Super Double Looper.

Ahhhhhh me like!!!!
