Audemars Piguet T3 - The Terminator No. 10 of Top 10 Watches
The Audemars Piguet T3 (The Terminator), where do we start with this watch? It was originally launched by Audemars Piguet in 2003 to run concurrently with the film Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.
Now a Senator, Arnold Schwarzenegger worked with Audemars to design and develop this watch.
As with any unusual and daring design, it can be both obscene and irresistibly appealing, I am not sure which one of these this one is.
It was only ever manufactured in Titanium and they only made 1000 pieces, so these are now very rare and sought after. Luckily it was not made in stainless steel, as you would drag your knuckles.
But who can wear them?
The case size, wait for it, 57.2mm case edge to case edge!
The dial is a staggering 36.2mm in diameter, so whoever is wearing one of these magnificent T3 watches does not mind getting noticed.
AP made this watch with two dial options, Silver or Charcoal Grey, both are equally fabulous.
The main crown and chronograph pushers are protected by really larger crown guards, this just made the watch even bigger, but everybody who sees this wants to know, what is it you are wearing?
If you are ever the proud owner of one of these truly mad watches then you will also have its very special collectors box with the Terminator Movies on DVD, reason alone to track one of these watches down.
