Fantasy Shopping List Part 2: Watches and Cars. What would you get? - Ep #14

Published: Aug. 7, 2020, 9 a.m.

Last time, Anthony and Jon revealed which cars and watches they would buy in certain different price categories, inspired by a question we asked our resident racing driver Scott McKenna: https://www.watchgecko.com/the-cars-and-watches-challenge-scott-mckenna/

\n

To summarise: you\u2019ve got around \xa3150,000 to spend on four cars and four watches. One car has to cost no more than \xa35000, the next no more than \xa310,000, the third no more than \xa320,000 and the final one \xa3100,000.

\n

Same goes for watches: one watch to be no more than \xa3500, the next no more than \xa31000, the third no more than \xa32000, and the final one no more than \xa310,000.

\n

What will Ben and Tim come up with? Listen (and read) on to find out. Those of a sensitive nature when it comes to budgets might want to look away now.
