Yeah, up until last week and I had no idea of the history of it, especially the 'Thunderbird USAF' connection and how it was arguable the first pilot's tool watch.

It's a watch that can ride the fence between dress and sport and be either.

Great watch. Had my Thunderbird TOG for 12 years. Made a mistake by selling it

Nice

I really like the TOG, as soon as it was confirmed they were discontinued, I got DSW on the case and he quickly found me a NOS 116263, with white dial
I find it to be very versatile and am always the only one in the room with one on
Cheers
