Met a friend at the old WXOU Radio bar on Hudson St., down here in the West Village, and while catching up over drinks, and some Ziggy-era Bowie on the jukebox, I suddenly noticed his watch. "Oh yeah!" he says, "This is my dad's, and he gave it to me over Thanksgiving." Well, needless to say, we had to take a pic of his new hand-me-down and my old GMT.

We need photos under daylight! Great looking GMT, family history is the best provenance!👍👍
