I got bitten by the vintage watch bug !!!!
on: June 02, 2007, 06:42:18 AM
Did a little trading this past week ( Spyderco knives, digital camera, civil war ink bottles and fountain pens for 2 vintage watches ).  I ended up with a Bulova Accutron ( railroad certified ) and a Tudor ( made by Rolex ).  I wish I had purchased some of these watches when they were current production in the 1970's, they sure have appreciated over the years.

Why do I do this to my self ?

Why do I carry a 45 ?
Because they don't make a 46 !

Glutton for punishment, just like the rest of us!  Nice watch though.  I have a nice old Waltham pocket watch from late 1903 and the rest of my watches are pretty current.  Those Bulovas are nice, but I couldn't have afforded one even when they were new!
