I find it interesting how many "car guys" also have an extensive collection of watches. This has come up on several forums I frequent. Both my dad and brother fit the mold too. Passion for cars and nice watches.

Have you seen the Sistem 51 Swatches? They developed a 90 hour power reserve automatic that is assembled with just one screw. I have being thinking of picking one up as a beater. To your second point, I think appreciating great engineering may having something to do with it!
