How many of us wish we could travel back in time? What pieces would you pick up and why?

·Too many to name... definitely a 321, a CASD, a Railmaster and a Ranchero, perhaps a Daytona even.
Why? Because they're awesome.

··Sunburst dial fanIn 1963 I received a gold plated Smiths Astral manual watch as a birthday present and wore it for the next 10-15 years as my only watch.
I’ve no idea what happened to it but I’d happily go back and buy another (new) one
To the best of my recollection, it looked like this …

·If I could go back to the 1960s, I would love to pick up a Speedmaster 105.012, the watch that went to the moon. And if there was any spare change, maybe a GMT Master and a Sub, when they were good honest tool watches and not the over hyped blingy things they are today.

·I would go back and buy an almanac and some
Apple stock and punch a dude named Biff in the face. I would pick up a Speedmaster, 146.006 with the red hands, Submariner, GMT, Carrera, and all of the Constellations.
Oh yea, the why. Because then I’d be rich and all of those watches are awesome. Don’t care about the appreciation of the watches. Specifically with the Sub I really like vintage proportions a lot more.

·I'm going back to 1970 when Dad and I were at Huntington Beach Chrysler Plymouth. My eyes bulged at the Mopar muscle on the lot, and then I froze at the sight of a Hemi 'Cuda. A salesman walked up to him saying, "What can I do for you, sir?" Dad replied, pointing first to the lime green Hemi 'Cuda and then to me, "He'd like to have one of those."
I was thirteen at the time.
😀
What I wouldn't give to try persuading Pops to buy it for me.
