Similar to Mark's curiosity about collections, what would be the top choice of watches and vehicles that you either own, have owned, or would own if the conditions were right?

My 1988 Honda
Civic wagon has a digital clock on the dashboard. How's that for a combo ?
The digital numerals glow green -- but Honda designers apparently thought that would clash with the white graphics elsewhere in the dash; they provided a red filter over the LED readout, so the result is white numerals . . .
I'm just sayin' . . .

I keep my favorites forever.
I've had the car for nearly twenty years and the watch for just over thirty:

The NSX was way ahead of its time.
Yours looks mint.

You sure about that red filter/green LED thing? Seems to me that a filter which passes only red wavelengths, over a display which emits only green wavelengths, would block all the light.

Yeah, reliability is one of the reasons it's my favorite.
The photo's three years old. At the time, the car had about 250K miles on the clock.
Now it's at 290K and still running strong; all I do is change the oil and the tires, and wash it every once in a while.

That's amazing. Old Acura's run forever, too.
But they're Honda's on the right steroids..
Motor on and grin,
