Turbo

M6's weekly motoring magazine, on air since the channel's first week in March 1987, covers new-car tests, motorsport and the industry, and is the oldest programme still broadcast on the channel. Dominique Chapatte created, produced and presented it from the first edition, joined on screen by the road tester Safet Rastoder, who co-presented from 2012 to 2015, and the programme moved to Sunday mornings in September 2009.

Watches

TAG Heuer Monaco
Worn by Dominique Chapatte as Host. Seven Forumamontres members identified Chapatte's blue-dial TAG Heuer Monaco between September 2013 and 1 February 2015, including during the Mercedes S-Class test on 22 September 2013. Two identified it as a Calibre 12. No frame was posted and no reference was given. (Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres) Earlier reports leave the Monaco's wearer uncertain. A February 2011 sighting during the Audi A7 test was first called a Carrera, then corrected to a Monaco Steve McQueen worn by a journalist. In January 2012, viewers reported a blue-dial Monaco on black leather, but disagreed about whether it appeared in the Audi S5 segment: one noted that Chapatte drove the S5 while another journalist wore the Monaco.

Rolex GMT-Master II
Worn by Safet Rastoder as Presenter. Forumamontres viewers identified Rastoder's steel GMT-Master II on a bracelet in 2013–2015, with reports of both red-and-blue Pepsi and red-and-black Coke bezels. The Coke reports include a Jaguar-themed edition in November 2013 and close-ups during the Nissan Qashqai test on 26 January 2014; a Pepsi was reported on his right wrist on 1 February 2015. No frame was posted and no reference was given in these reports. (Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres) A 5 July 2015 report identified Rastoder's Rolex as a 16710. A September 2015 recollection listed a red-and-black GMT and an IWC Portuguese chronograph among his earlier watches. In October 2019, a viewer posted a screen photograph and identified a red-and-blue 16710, with an Apple Watch on the other wrist. (Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres; Forumamontres)

A. Lange & Söhne Lange 1
Worn by Dominique Chapatte as Presenter. Two Forumamontres members identified a Lange on Chapatte's left wrist on 4 June 2011, one specifying a yellow-gold Lange 1. Neither gave a generation or reference, and no frame was posted. One also suggested a Paul Newman Daytona on his right wrist; that identification was not separately confirmed.
