What do you think about my new watch?

[MarkDixon]

I think this is the coolest. What about you?

[26th-Z]

I think that's pretty cool. Very discrete and nobody but a Z fan would recognize it, but once recognized, would be appreciated. Do you realize that the clock face design came from a wristwatch? Fact. I know who owns the watch and I went looking for pictures of it, but the site is down at the moment. If I am not mistaken, this is the watch - photo taken in 1969.

I know who to have on my side in a trivia contest!

Thats a pretty cool piece of Z swag. I'd also be interested to know what watch it came from originally. Anybody out there know?

Nice but will work for awhile...then stop....then work slow....just like the clock with the same name located in my dash.

No problem, once it stops you can tear it apart and oil it with sewing machine oil and it will work again!

Stop and start. Thats funny. The clock on my 71' 240z worked like a champ from the day I bought the car. I had to tow the car home when I bought it, and it took me a year to get it in drivable condition, but the clock worked.

However, I thought it would be cool looking to put white guage faces on. (I have a white Z so it does kinda look cool even though I bastardised my car)

but I digress; Everything was going well until I tried to put the little hands back on the clock. They didn't want to go back on so easy and by the time I got them on and pluged the clock back up.... my clock no work no more .

Is it real or a photochop? If real where did you get it. I want one!

Neat Watch:

So are you going to tell us where you got the watch? Did you have it made for you - are you going to offer them For Sale before someone else does?

thanks,

Carl

[MarkDixon]

It is the real thing. I think the company that makes the watch is The American Watch Company. I only have the one watch, but I will try to get more if you guys want to get one.

26th was right, nobody really knows what it is but a Zcar owner. If you wear something like this to a Zclub meet, it will definatly get noticed.

I don't think I would sell this one, or not at an affordable price anyway.

Again, I will try to get my hands on some more if the interest is there. What would you be willing to pay for one?
