Every time he’s on the TV, he’s wearing a yellow Breitling Professional Emergency. He’s also wearing a Breitling Bentley on the front of his Autobiography. Has he cut a deal with them? :lol:

Of course he f...ing hasn't! With his gob?! Can you imagine him at the AD:
"F... me, what a nice selection of watches, I'll f...ing take two of them you t...!!" :lol:

Yeah I noticed the yellow Breitling, but thought it was a Chrono Avenger M1, as I dont think even he'd have a need for a distress beacon??

Have you noticed that the Breitling site has been reworked? Seems too fussy if you ask me... :roll:

It seems as if a lot of high paid celebrities are given cars to drive to encourage others to buy them. Go figure.

I did notice that lately he'd been wearing a blue SuperOcean Heritage 46mm with Ocean racer strap

I've also seen something with a white dial and black band. Couldn't tell what it was though

Ramsay is British...

Breitling is strongly associated with British culture due to their original contract with the British Air Ministry... it's also the reason they are strongly tied to aviation...

Breitling sponsors various British activities.... like the Orbiter...

So.... Breitling is very Brit friendly.... and Ramsay is a Brit...

I dont think Gordon will ever have financial problems... He could shut down all but a couple of his business's and still do quite well.

i personally enjoy watching his shows very much... and i went to his restaurant in West Hollywood, At The London, which was very good...

He has admitted he expanded too quickly and tried to bite off more than he can chew... but at least he was showing some balls... now hopefully he'll listen to the financial advisers and stay in the kitchen more...

As for the Ferrari, they are probably making a bigger deal out of it... how many of us have sold a watch we didn't really need to sell to "finance" a new piece.... considering that his partner is his father-in-law, i can imagine his wife was chewing his ear and selling the Ferrari to appease her...

I agree with you Mike. Good summary indeed. He is a dick head but I admire his style. Go for it, get it done, keep moving. He could probably make horseshit taste good too. :D

So we've just learned that he likes nice watches and nice cars, is a phenomenal chef, listens to his financial advisors, has a wife from a rich family, sports a no-nonsense attitude and is still in charge of a successful international empire of restaurants.

Hard to find fault with all that, and even if he does sometimes act like a dickhead (much of which I'm sure is hammed up and overemphasized by editing) I'd say he's earned the right to do whatever he wants (within reason of course)...

hes a great chef no doubt. i watch hells kitchen, ramsay nightmares,F word. this season of hells kitchen he is wearing an omega smp pro blue, the one brosnan wears. 1st time i saw him not wearing a breiting.

no he doesnt act like that most of the time, its because of hells kitchen thats why he acts like that. makes great TV. if you watch some of his show and his guesting you;l see different side of him. although he still curse a lot.
