I was Just wondering if there are any owners on here?? Also what is the best rumour/story you have heard about these watches??

Anyone else heard about Elton John buying a load of them a while ago for presents for his friends??!

Supposedly there's only a handful left for sale and then that's it.

havent heard that one about Elton John

There are 3 left if anybodys tempted

most of the people that purchased the gold timebomb are famous.

i know the following have bought them

Sir Steve Redgrave
Eddie Irvine
Eddie Jordan
Mike Tyson
Carl Foggerty

Its also rumoured that David Beckham bought one.

I also heard that we had to add an extra link to fit Mike Tyson, kind of scary if you see the size of the wrist band anyway.

Tried one on and thought about it.....but I really hate gold. Its just so tacky. I heard the Elton John rumor too, apparently he bought five. I know Mark Mcguire has one.

I bet you do FP!

My friend almost bought one through me. Employee price $10k

Best rumor I heard was that all US gold winning athletes at the Olympics got one free. Then I found out there were only 50, so that shoots down that rumor.

Dann Thombs (Dann - 12/20/2004 7:21:31 PM)

Maybe all the athletes who wear oakleys and won gold medals all got one?

"i wonder if i have one sitting in my box of timebombs?"


You make me sick, dude. ;-)

Oakley sponsored gold medalists got gold Blades, that is true.

One of our marketing guys got a 24k Gold plated Blade with black face for helping out at the Olympics this year..... very nice !!

Roger Byrne (SCOOBY - 12/21/2004 10:32:23 AM)

I believe this is the gold Blade:

I don't know how those guys get all the Oakley info. Check out the large hi-res Rudolph on their main page.

So when the Gold Bombs are gone what are the odds a new goldie will take its place? If I saw a full-gold GMT my brain would probably explode.

that is one sexy watch, id rather have a gold blade than a gold timebomb.

Alexis Watkins (LEX7 - 12/21/2004 12:20:29 PM)
------------------------------------------------------------

That is a lotta bling. I could go for it in a Platinum finish. That might be nice.

Phil Barket (kingphilbert - 12/21/2004 9:07:49 AM)

shit! who knows a us employee? $10K is only £5k at the moment!

Darren Taylor (rolyatnerrad - 12/21/2004 12:37:49 PM)

Hey I have one of those and I wasn't even in the olympics

Factory Pilot (Monsterdog - 12/21/2004 2:16:10 PM)

But you still won the most impressive collection event.

Dann Thombs (Dann - 12/21/2004 5:29:12 PM)
------------------------------------------------------------

I dunno, FP has now got some major competition in Chris.
and Chris actually shows us pics and lists his massive collection.
FP needs to step up with some more pics and a collection listing if he wants to match Chris.

Alexis Watkins (LEX7 - 12/22/2004 1:10:55 AM)
------------------------------------------------------------

I totally agree Lex7! FP, at least show some more pictures (like your S2K) if you cannot list them. It is really hard for us to visualize what you really got.

a few reasons i dont post everything is cause i have 3 boxes in storage filled with all the old school stuff. Not to mention the 2 boxes of shoes one of which 1 posted back in august. I try to keep only things I wear in my case. I have a triple wide coming once that is here I will be able to fit more stuff and take some more photos.

Just in the last week i picked up 6 glasses, 4 pairs of shoes and a misc clothes which i posted last week.

I think i am the only guy here with 17 different color/lens combos of monsterdogs. How many differt colorways are listed at Oakley.com 6?

anyone else here have 3 pairs of Thumps?

lol im getting a bit fiesty here...better stop b4 i pull out the Gold!



Factory Pilot (Monsterdog - 12/21/2004 7:38:17 PM)
