My journey began when I received a watch from a friend in the 7th grade (a friend to this day! This was in 1978). Timex Viscount Calendar. I asked my father for a watch in the 8th grade. He bought me a Casio “Ripley.” My marriage watch was a TAG Se/L (Loved the links on these). On our honeymoon, I got Citizen Eco-Drive Titanium, both of which I still have. The Ripley and Viscount Calendar have long gone, but I managed to get replacements.

Now I am semi-retired. I have been collecting…
