Perusing car-themed watches on a whim.

I decided to look up some car-themed watches that I could afford on a budget of ~$3.50, and I came across a couple of mildly interesting results: this "RPM" watch that seems to be made by a bunch of different folks at different prices, and a children's digital watch with a double-ended Murciélago.

But really, I'd like to know if/what other car-themed watches can be had for under/around $50.

Thanks; I guess you've gotta pay good money for an automotive-themed watch. The Hot Rod piece has my interest.

Hmm. Did it break, or is it even worse at telling time than it looks?

I have the top one. It's cool as a little gimmick but the name broke within two weeks.

It!s not expressedly car themed, but the side bolts look a lot like pistons and it's go a sporty look to it.

If you're looking for the best, you've got to go with the Autodromo Stradale:

I found this on Amazon for $40 . Just search "[make/model] watch" and you'll find tons of stuff. Can't vouch for quality though.

Top one looks cool but is probably a pain to read at a glance

it didnt break, but the rpm needles dont move its just the number that light up. Ita big, heavy, the strap is of the worst plastic imaginable and the holes for the size are weird

It did strike me as a low-quality piece, but I'm surprised that the needles don't move. Thanks.

I received one of these as a gift.

But what I wanted was the official Cadillac XLR watch.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Bvlgari has created this special edition Diagono Aluminum chronograph for those who drive Cadillac's new convertible, the XLR.

It will be a limited edition of 1,000 pieces and only available for Cadillac XLR owners.

The Diagono Aluminium Chrono has a black dial, with three amber counters, inspired by the Bvlgari-designed instruments on the dashboard of the car as well as its key-fob.

The XLR logo appears on the dial and on the rubber strap, while the Bvlgari logo, the Cadillac crest and the number of series are engraved on the back case.

Case size is 38mm and features an ETA 2894 automatic chronograph movement.

Problem is they're currently selling for around $1800.
