Identifying the Watches / Next, the Participants
In Response To: PVD & Cortina ()


one reader has correctly identified the watches; here is his response, naming the watches, along with my comments:


  • Heuer Carrera 1964 –- Correct; it’s the “Grail” 2447 SN (black-on-white); I received this one a few months ago, will photograph and soon add to OTD.

  • Abercrombie & Fitch Auto-graph Worn by Jeff – Correct; the 1953 (first) version, with the larger registers

  • Rolex Double Red Sub 1680 – Correct; the famous DRSD, in the so-called Mark II Version (or is it Mark Two) . . . dial has gone toward chocolate, as it should in this series

  • IWC Ocean 2000 – Correct, I believe; also called the Ocean Bund . . . first time that I had seen it “in the metal”; awesome watch; velcro strap is really neat!!

  • Rolex Explorer II – Correct; the famous “Orange Hand” Rolex . . . some affiliation with Steve McQueen, though the details are unclear

  • Heuer Cortina 510.513 – Correct; I received it last week, and cannot stop wearing the thing!! Beautiful dial colors and pattern

  • Heuer Monaco PVD 74033 – Correct; the much-debated “PVD Monaco” . . . about which we will write more, in the near future.

NEXT . . . we will meet the participants and see the location.

It would be great for readers to comment on these watches.

Jeff
