    I would pay to watch the Bond movie with Putin as the villain. But for some reason I don't think Bond stands a chance against him

    Maybe those watches were "gifts" - from wealthy Russians, foreign diplomats & businessmen.

    Maybe he was homeless and ate at soup kitchens for 6 years while saving up his earnings for that collection. That's dedication.

    He does have nice taste anyway.

    Bond never gives watch to anyone, Putin gives away a ~$10,000 Blancpain to a metalworker in 2009.

    Please feel free to use the above logos for your signature, even if you never wear a watch.

    Does anyone actually think the most powerful man in the world actually pays for his watches?

    Jacques Lemans Capri Chronograph 1618G
