Johnson Outboards watch
My step dad worked for Johnson Outboards through the 1960s and 1970s. One year I got this watch for my birthday when I was about ten years old. Being a kid, I didn't understand the value this watch would have to me personally or because of the close of Johnson Outboards in Waukegan Illinois. I lost that watch sometime between childhood and adulthood. My step dad passed away in 2012, and I wish I had that watch now. If ever you think of selling it on, I would enjoy being the next custodian of it.
Thanks for sharing pics of it!
1960's Johnson Outboards boating watch.
Call me a sucker for original packaging and Nos watches when comes to dive watches. I need anothrr one like a hole in my head. But like all strays i needed to rescue this on and give it a good home. Oh well i am sure i will come across a worthy recipient....
This could have been on your wrist way back then. I bet it looked like this.
or 9 hp. We had either Evinrude or Johnson back in the day. ...
Gear on the opposite side FWD Neutral Rev.
WE used to put two of these side by side on a little Zodiac and we could fly. It was a long time ago but I remember it clearly.
Vintage style is always powerful.
When you add water sports it tooo cool. So cool i needed to buy one more to wear. ...
Great conversation piece
Always nice to find a time capsule like this. I have seen a few of these watches surface the last couple of years. The watch by itself may not be very interesting but nos with its original packaging is a great find. Great 70\'s conversation piece.
Absolutely just looking at the packaging evokes memories.
The ad copy is great - a watch designed for cruising, fishing, snorkeling and skiing. Great fun. Will make a great gift.
