I was born in 64 and am contemplating a special purchase next year to celebrate that particular milestone, as my 3570.50 needs some company. Its ideal companion would be a Speedmaster from that year but I'm not entirely sure which of the vintage models were in production or available then.

I know that the "Ed White" - 105.003 is the prime candidate but were there any others such as possibly the 105.012? Does anyone know of a 64 issued 105.012?

Thank you very much in advance.

 

Go with a Constellation pie pan 168.005 in solid gold.

 

Thank you both for your suggestions, but I'm not sure that a gold watch is quite for me, I'm definitely after a vintage Speedy but may have to extend my range.

 

I'd consider a Navitimer on my list of possibles. I just put 1964 watches into eBay and this one popped up - I don't know how original it is, but I'm sure there are some here that could say:

Of course, it all depends on what your budget is.

 

You can purchase either a 105.002, 105.003-63 or 105.012-63 delivered in 1964.
Or if you prefer that 64 appears on the caseback, purchase 105.003-64 or 105.012-64, most of which have been delivered in 1965

 

I wasn't born in '64 but where can I find one of these!?

 

Here's how you get that exact watch. PM me for my Paypal information. I'll put that on the list of watches I want to see in gator's collection when I'm in Florida meeting with him on a non-game day during our annual Spring Training Pilgrimage. I'll get Windy to bop gator on the noggin and ship you the watch.

Otherwise, start trolling da 'Bay and ask for our opinions.

 

The funniest part is that Windy & I do eat that beef jerky on car trips. Usually the sweet & hot though.

 

is the bear standing behind the guy from Jersey?
