|
|
Last night I was holding my vintage Seamaster chrono in my hands...
Couldn't help wondering how many owners she had before I got my hands on this beauty.
The year she was born Gunsmoke was one of the most popular television shows
The year she was born Elvis sang "A Big Hunk O' Love".
The year she was born my dad was 18 years old...
There is something about a vintage timepiece like this.
Every time I hold one in my hands my mind takes me back......decades back..
I think it's safe to say that vintage timepieces have some kind of ''soul''.
Man, I sure love this little chrono..
1959, the year my Seamaster Chrono was born... _________________

I was 12 and wished I looked half as good as your watch does.  |
