Many of you weren’t around, 55 years ago today. Of those who were around 55 years ago today, were you wearing a watch? Many of you likely weren’t wearing a watch. If you were wearing a watch 55 years ago today, do you remember the watch you were wearing, and do you still have it? (I see a lot of blank looks!) That’s all okay.
On my wrist today is the watch I was wearing 55 years ago today! Different bracelet, same watch. My 57 year old Accutron 214 of which I am the only owner. How do I remember that I was wearing this watch exactly 55 years ago today, you might ask. That’s easy. Today is our 55th anniversary! Still looks and runs like day one. It has been on my wrist for many important occasions. The christening of our son, Expo ‘67 when we were caught in a cloudburst outside the Czech Pavilion. Our 50th anniversary celebration, and today. Do I love this watch? You gotta know!
