I think some on here were really interested in the watch of the record driver as well, here are some details about it:
Swiss watchmaker Parmigiani Fleurier has released a new exclusive timepiece in
celebration of the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, building on a partnership that
dates back several years now and is approaching its end. Much like the Veyron
Super Sport that it was designed to commemorate, the new watch is even more
outlandish, the case sleeker and it is much more wearable. The excellent design
perfectly blends subtle Bugatti Veyron elements, without being quite as loud as
the previous model, and that is definitely a good thing. Each is crafted from exotic
materials including carbon fiber, rose gold and platinum and etched by engraver
Philippe Bodenmann in a process that takes more than 300-hours to complete.
The watches also feature calfskin straps furnished by Bugatti's partner Hermes.
Parmigiani Fleurier’s Bugatti Veyron watch series was originally released to celebrate
the launch of the world beating supercar and was designed so that the driver can
see the time without taking their hands off the steering wheel.
here is an official pdf document of the watch:

I haven`t found an official price tag but it is rumored to cost about 350.000$ and it is limited to 30 pieces.
