Price Harry's Watch
« on: Monday 16 July 18 19:43 BST (UK) »
I was browsing through all the various Kings and Princes of Wales and I eventually ended up on Prince Harry. I was reading up on his life and eventually, I saw a watch he was wearing. Anyone know what it is?

Do you want the 'price'?  ;D

Can't help with make but I think it's a Pilots watch with the triangle for 12 o'clock?

Turn screen upside down and you will see " ...ex "

obviously a "TIMEX MEGHAN 24hr + Wallet £ vs Time Alarm" fashion watch.     

DOWNward direction triangle = balance going down     

UPward      direction triangle = balance going up ( Yeah? )

He has been seen wearing two different models: a Rolex Explorer II ref. 216750 and a Breitling Aerospace. Both watches are excellent choices and are indicative of the areas he specializes in.

Thanks! After some further research, I found some additional info as well.

I think the watch is just so cool, but its way out of budget for me.
