This says it all for me In regard to that one

 

Oh man, I want to stare at that lit-up watch while listening to the Scarlet>Fire from Cornell '77.

 

Gotta be careful with those, I was tempted by one a couple of years ago before reading there are alot of fakes of this exact model.

 

Same font as the TRS-80 Basic programming book that is in my office that I can't access at the moment.

 

I hit the dance floor with this ORIS Chronoris from the 70s



Still searching the missing bezel, but that is another part of the Story ...

 

ha! I think this wins for the most seventies comment in this thread.

 

One word- Wang

 

And now for the most 90s comment in this thread. I bought the book in the mid 90s to improve my line-numbered basic programming skills when I got a job re-writing old code to be Y2K compliant.

 

These old racing watches remind me of one of my favorite arcade games.

 

Please tell me that’s yours. And that it still boots up (after a few minutes’ wait).

 

Sadly no, web-grab pic. But we actually had one at my last job (2012) to read archived floppies- and it still worked.

 

Well, I understand.

 

You just gave me flashbacks to a Commodore I had as a kid. What a machine that was.

 

I have a C64c, several drives, an x64 cable that lets me connect a PC to a 1541, and a device made by a guy in Turkey that allows the Commodore to connect to a PC and mount d64 disk images on the hard drive, and of course a few original joysticks.

I bought all the gear pre eBay for a few dollars in thrift stores.

 

I think the Lip Mach 2000 is the " seventiest " of them all.



The Cernos was the seventiest watch of my collection

 

Those are both phenomenal. The former has been remade in a modern quartz, I believe.

 

Indeed, the modern ones are equipped with a Ronda 5021-D movement.

 

Some super examples already posted, but my idea of an archetypal Seventies watch/strap remains this Lanco, and I've been seeking one without success for years:

 

How can we forget!!!
