Well a happy new year and decade to all you lovely forum members.. So just for fun - What 1 watch would you swap these 3 for as a straight swap.. Reason and pic please! 1967 105012-66CB 1965 Breitling 765 AVI 1991 Rolex Submariner 16610
For this & I'm ready for the swop whenever you are , there’s a lot less of these Timex knocking about making them somewhat more exclusive ....
There were only around 1800 of this particular model ever produced..I’ve seen them sell for between GBP£9k-£15k (Davidoff bros, HODINKEE, A Collected Man among other sellers)..
Didn't a famous Watch publication wrote about it? Something along the line, that the founder had one?
Good jokes, guys, but that Timex brings back fond memories of childhood and of an era in America that is long gone. Thanks for that great photo, CPRwatch.
I’m actually not a fan of the straight lug speedy.. And the fact that Ed White had a terrible and sad end .. A watch named after him is not my personal choice.. Would prefer a Daytona 16520
With those three to me the slam dunk trade would be a Royal Oak Chrono 26331. Pretty much captures the character of all these three watches, all in one heavy hitter. Sorry for the sports analogies...
I'd keep the Breitling and swap the Speedy and the Sub date for a Sub 5512 gilt. This way you would have a badass chrono and a badass diver.
Shouldn’t it be “which one watch would someone be willing to take for these three?” Personally, I’d trade my Seiko for those.
