Had no idea Michael Crichton was also into watches.

In many photos he can be seen wearing his Speedmaster:

Monaco

From the '70s, Flightmaster

His other Speedmaster (7A28-7040)

In 2010, Antiquorum sold his "pre-explorer".

They claim further: "Although the fact is not widely known, Michael Crichton was a passionate collector of watches, with a preference for vintage Rolex Sports models."


Has anyone more information about his collection?


PS, with the Oyster bracelet, I think Rolex.

He had good taste in watches.....

Another photo, looks like a Navitimer with cal. 7750 / B13 inside. Photo from 1991.

And surely “coincidental“ Hodinkee published on August 19, 4 days after this thread, an article about another Breitling, Michael Crichton appears to have owned for just a week…

I have said many time before and I will say again.

A lot of content “creators” sign up as members of Watch U Seek and they lurk around to read and see interesting posts for their use.

A member here is a writer for Hodinkee. God knows how many more writers from blogs and main stream publications are here? Maybe even Ariel from a A blog to watch is here too.

We also know the dozens of YouTubers here who don’t post much but create videos discussing topics we are all discussing online here.

What I want to see at least is that those people who steal others’ ideas at least credit the member here who brought it up and name Watch U Seek as the source. Give credit where credit’s due.

Fitting that the brilliant creator of Andromeda Strain and Jurassic Park was aLeo a WIS!
