Automotive photographer Michael Shaffer takes us on a journey into the world of watches at the Goodwood Revival car show. The event, known for its impressive cars, also showcases a wide variety of timepieces. From luxurious Swiss masterpieces to everyday enthusiast fare, the watches on display represent a range of styles and values. What sets this event apart are the sentimental heirlooms that emerge due to the period dress code. Shaffer captures the essence of these watches through his stunning photography.

Mark Gaunlett's Timepiece Pairing

At the Goodwood Revival, Mark Gaunlett was seen wearing a Rolex RO he has owned since 1998. Paired with his attire, he also carried a late 19th Century Dent Quarter Repeater in his breast pocket.

A Search for Horological Machine

Shaffer searched diligently for an actual Horological Machine after spotting a sponsored jacket, but unfortunately, did not find one at the event.

BND Watch with Charm

The BND watch may not have a significant history, but it radiates charm and fits perfectly into the atmosphere of the Goodwood Revival.

A Family Heirloom

A Seamaster with a perfect period aesthetic was not only a cherished timepiece, but it also belonged to George Daniels and was worn by him daily.

The Hodinkee Presence

A notable watch enthusiast, whose impeccable taste in timepieces is renowned, was the host and reason for Hodinkee's presence at the Goodwood Revival. This individual always brings their A-game when it comes to watches.

Unique Ties to Iconic Cars

Unique encounters occurred at the event, such as the Breadvan, a one-of-a-kind 250 GTO variant, which had its aluminum body panels repaired with a wooden mallet to continue racing. Ikuzawa San and Daniel Arsham also made an appearance with their Team Arsham Porsche 904, adding more charm to the field.

A Diverse Display

Throughout the event, attendees showcased a wide range of watches. Jonny Lieberman traded his chunky IWC for a Sheffield 24 Hour timepiece, while Scott Evans displayed heritage pieces from his late grandfather. From Casio to Kurono, Japan made its mark with the Jade Dial Chronograph Hisui 3, and Max Chilton sported a Nautilus during the event.
