Plus, I'm just fascinated by the craftsmanship, skill and artistry that goes into a nice mechanical movement.
Definitely NOT influenced by racing (anything where vehicles, people or animals go round and round a circuit ad nauseum is not my thing), cars, James Bond, or Steve McQueen!

Hang on, I'll just go check....
No, it turns out I am a man after all. Thinking about it, I actually don't mind people racing round and round a circuit, ie athletics, so that must be the key gender-defining difference between me and asqwerth.
