    Never underestimate the power of a Speedmaster freak to spot the object of his affections. ;) ♥️

    It does look like a 7912, 1067, 1035, or 1039 stretch bracelet.

    I prefer this version, lip synced though it is:



    I love the song.

    Yeah but it isn't worth a damn in determining which watch the bass player is wearing.

    He’s wearing the same watch, from the little I can see.

    And the version posted by the OP is missing the amusing opening that this longer version has. I’d love to get a call in a dentist’s chair, about a new song written for my group.

    The watch does make another, very brief cameo.

    You are absolutely right.

    Obviously, I’d rather discuss that great song than if the bass player is wearing a speedmaster or not. Btw, I think he is. Black face, pushers, stainless steel and that bracelet.

    After watching all three a few times, I think you guys are correct. Now, what is the guy in the control room wearing?

    Hell, I refuse to go that way.

    Next, another comparable song from a few years earlier. Dave Clark Five, Because

    Last one, I promise. But we do need at least one American band right?

    Beach Boys, God Only Knows



    Sorry, btw. I did not appreciate these songs before I met my wife, thirty seven years ago.

    I won't postulate if it is or isn't a Speedmaster - just not enough for me to go on. But I will say that it shocks me that he's only 25 in that (and other) videos.

    Fans of the Seekers might be surprised to learn that Judith Durham is also a classically-trained pianist as well as a gifted jazz singer.

    I just spent entirely too much time going through videos of The Seekers - I'm going to say that I think it is, but can't come up with a picture clear enough. In case anyone else wants to join in, these are the videos that I found that have the best examples:

    Not sure about the Chap ?....you identified......Nevertheless, terrific music from the 60's

    However, this presenter...Alain De Cadenet is definitely wearing one.....as well as, I suspect,....'Brown trousers'
