Where were you in 1969???
My "new" Roamer Stingray Chronograph was just being manufactured in 1969. It arrived a couple hours ago from The Netherlands, in freshly-serviced condition. It's powered by the venerable Valjoux 72 (726) movement. BTW, in 1969 I was one year out of the Marine Corps and newly married.

Good lord.
I was 12. I feel like an elder statesman here.
Most of you cats were still in liquid form then. . . .

Nice piece

I'd been married for a year in 1969, but my current (2nd) wife was only 13 then.

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong
And If I have trouble the warranty said
