Look at the size of this watch -- and it's Tazio Nuvolari wearing it! I do not think anyone would call him a softie. Times change.
I hope MotorSport magazine will forgive me for stealing their photo if I recommend their website: https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/history/f1/day-motor-sport-november-16-22

·Why is he wearing a turtle brooch?
From http://www.tazionuvolari.it/en/cronostoria/39-d-annunzio-and-the-turtle.html
The poet Gabriele D’Annunzio received him at The Vittoriale degli Italiani, where Nuvolari was given a little golden turtle bearing the dedication: «To the fastest man in the world, the slowest animal». Tazio considered this little piece as a good luck charm, and also a symbol. He had it embroidered on the yellow jersey which he wore to race in, printed on his stationery and painted on the side of the personal airplane that he acquired some years later.
