I was born in 1953 so it would have to be the original Submariner.

dysondiver · 30 January 2014, 09:08 PM

5512 ,,, 61 , but working on a 5510 at the moment , just so i can say ,,,, well its older than me and still working ,, maybe not a good omen ,, come to think of it ,a reminder that ill have to keep working too , but i still like the idea of wearing daily a watch thats been around longer than me ,,,,,, and dare i say it ,,, will probably still be working when im gone too.

cop414 · 30 January 2014, 09:11 PM

its just a couple of years early to get a realistic priced birth year watch though ,, so i went older

Alinoe · 30 January 2014, 09:32 PM

1986. It would have to be either a pepsi GMT or a DJ.

Cru Jones · 30 January 2014, 09:52 PM

stella dial day-date or 1655 for me.

jhamiltonwa · 30 January 2014, 09:54 PM

I'm not sure. What was cool in 62? 5513 Sub? Probably out of my price range.

What happens if you have a nice uncle who got you a watch the year you were born and laid it down NIB for your 21st? Would it all be dry and manky inside having not been used? Would a service get it going?

brandrea · 30 January 2014, 10:11 PM
