    The watch reads 3:05 so it’s either brunch, or maybe he’s a little bonkers with his sleep schedule? Based on what looks like the shadow from sunlight on the wall, I’m going with he’s having a late brunch. Don’t judge the man. You’ve never had a delicious plate of bacon edit: (Yes, I know it’s steak) and eggs cause you felt like it?

    He’s a brand ambassador for Omega Speedwatch, which is part of why he does it, but he usually has several watches on.

    Knowing this dude’s public persona, I’m going with Rings on.

      I think that may be the breakfast he had on launch day. I read the book that Michael Collins wrote (highly recommended) and what’s on that plate matches my memory.

        Carrying the Fire! Awesome book - I read it a few years ago. Collins always added a wonderful perspective.
