Blast from the Past

[khyndart in CA]

As an apprentice in 1966 I started out at 5 pound and three pence for the week so I guess I would have had to save for a long time to buy a watch like this that cost almost 55 pounds in 1962.
( Almost 3 months of income !)
Plus being a 1959 model it is already 3 years old.I wonder how long the unconditional guarantee lasted ?

(The one I have now cost less than 1 hour of my income and is a heck of a lot easier to use !)

Ad from 1962 NZGP programme.
