Headed for the Rocky Mountains again, for a few days. Time to shelve the Accutron 214 Railroader I’ve worn for a week, and to retrieve something serviceable (and expendable) for 5 days. I never wear this Hamilton Khaki except for times like this. Too small for my big wrist. Now all I have to do is to remember to wind it! The bracelet is one of 50 that I bought at an NAWCC Mart, for $20.00.
Yes. We were not issued watches when we entered U.S. Navy pilot training in late 1986…so I went to the NAS Whiting Field Navy Exchange and purchased the Seiko 6309-7049 during primary pilot training…I consider it my first watch as an aviator.
