    Which watch would Santa wear?

    Got some time on my hands with the hols so I was wondering which watch Santa would wear during this busy time.

    I should think that a GMT hand or bezel would be a must and a chronograph would be handy to get the timing right to deliver all presents in a short period of time.

    I reckon a Heuer Autavia Heritage with the 02 chronograph would fit the bill

    Depends on how many gifts he stole. I bet on platinum Daytona.

    ChatGPT has the answer:

    “If we were to imagine Santa wearing a brand of watch, it would likely be a classic and timeless brand such as Rolex, Omega, or Patek Philippe. These brands are known for their luxury and quality, which would suit Santa's iconic image. However, it is important to note that Santa Claus is a fictional character, so his choice of watch brand is ultimately a matter of personal interpretation.”

    Proof that AI doesn't work - what a ridiculous statement! :-)

    When my daughter says Santa isn't real I tell her to define real. He's as real as God or Mathematics. And if she disagrees with this I ask her to explain the square root of -1.

    Based on the temperature at the North Pole and the altitude that he’d be confronted with when flying above the atmosphere, I reckon an Omega Speedmaster Alaska Project would do the job.

    I reckon the old ******* would wear this:

    to remind the reindeer what’ll happen if they start slacking.

    Well as Santa is effectively a pilot.

    I'm going to say a Sinn....maybe an 857.

    I reckon he'd wear a world time to help him get around the globe. Being a man of the people how about a Nomos Zurich with the quickset timezone change.

    It would have to be a 16710 then.

    You've not thought this through. He does NOT have time to set the local time every time he crossed into a new time zone. He needs something that will rapidly correct itself. The only possible answer is something radio controlled.
    Purely for lazy colour-matching I'm going with this:

    Satellite reception for timezones.
    Indestructible for jumping down chimneys.
    A brand that all people know from their youth. A classic, like himself.
    Casio G-Shock 5610 it has to be.

    Would you wear one of these going down chimney pots? 😁
