I’ve always loved the 1655.
It’s always been very close to my heart. Such a very cool watch. This one owner full set example deserves so much more wrist time. How many 1655 fans are out there ???? M. ...
One of my absolute favorites
I've had mine since new, June 1978. A tad beat up after a couple of decades climbing in the Himalaya and Karakoram. ...
Wow. The real deal.
Owned by a real life Explorer. I’m pleased it’s served you well and never been polished. Hope it keeps you company exploring for years to come. M.
Good plan.
The 1655 deserves some pampering after all that adventure. Out of interest though in all those years and in all that adventure has it ever let you down or has it always trundled on like a true work horse ??? M.
Nary a hiccup.
It never complained. I did have the crystal replaced once in the mid 80's as it was so beat up. It and a Great White Sea Dweller were my constant companions.
Very nice first series Bill.
Cool straight hand example. Glad it gets some proper use with water sports. M.
I tend to be close to the water often.
But usually don’t go in the water with these old boys exvept for my trusty 666. ...
My confusion is:
Is the picture real? Did he go in the water with his PP or is that photoshop and an inside joke I’m not privy to?
I applaud you.
For you have looked at both convention and common sense and laughed in their face. 🤪 Hope it comes back from service soon.
Agreed.
Once I started a fight with a bar. Not in a bar, but with an entire company that had rented the bar. Not started as I’d say they started it. When it all got defused, my friend turns to me and says “ Roger, you know I like fighting “ we played ice hockey t...
Huge fan
It's one of those Rolexes where non watch people can't believe its a Rolex when you tell them lol. ...
Agreed. I think it was the first watch that Rolex went out on a bit of a design limb.
They tried to make something a bit different from the Norm. They sure did that. Nice example you have there. M.
