This is the watch I was wearing on Memorial Day 1967 when wounded by shrapnel on Hill 174 near the DMZ (Vietnam).  Thank God it was unscathed! yahoo.gif

I'm wearing it now - - still keeps excellent time and has never had the back off! yourock.gif

Shortly after posting I was wearing my ORSA 3T, and just before running out to take one of my boys to see Indiana Jones, I realized that what better day than to wear my most valuable watch...my Glycine Airman, (Vintage 1964)...it took me thru 2 combat tours in the jungles of Vietnam...it certainly deserved a day out of the safe!

Thanks Ken.  I thought it looked pretty sharp too.  The brushed finish on the Watchadoo matches the case pretty close.  I really like the bracelet that came with the GV2 - but I have a GV2 Chrono waiting for me at the office.  Had it shipped there while on vacation last week.  The chrono came with rubber strap - so gonna use the bracelet from this one.  Pretty sure they both use the same case...chrono is a bit thicker.

Hey....worst case is you'll have to use the Watchadoo on the chrono....and it will still look fantastic!
