路I鈥檝e shown this one many times before 馃ケ. But this is my oldest, and possibly favourite Accutron. Looks and runs like new, and it is 61 years old, this year. One owner (me), and it was on my wrist when we married in 1966, on my wrist at Montreal Expo 67 when we were drenched in a rainstorm while in a line up waiting to get into the Czech pavilion, on my wrist at the christening of our son in 1971, and on my wrist as we celebrated our 50 th wedding anniversary in 2016. In one week, we celebrate our 59th anniversary, and I鈥檒l wear it then. If we both survive to our 60th anniversary in 2026, I鈥檒l wear it then.

路How fantastic you have had that watch through such major events. I am a huge fan of Expo67. Amazing innovations, architecture, graphic design etc. The pavilions looked like they were literally out of this world. Safdie's Habitat 67 concrete modules are amazing and his full vision has now been replicated virtually (check it out on Youtube if you search Hillside Unreal Engine). I don't suppose you have any photos from inside the "Man the Producer" pavilion of the Alfa Romeo Bertone concept cars that then became the Alfa Montreal production car? I have one (project car).
