You'd need a double neck Gibson and an amp that goes to 11 to wear that.

Here we go - not in the same league, but here's a bad pic of my Longines Conquest Automatic. It was given to me by a friend and has the wrong strap on it (I think - looks far too shiny!), but I like it. I've dropped it a number of times (hence the crack in the lense), and it loses 5 minutes a day. It's great! Now if only it was waterproof...
