A great interview over on Hodinkee

Nov 12, 2018,14:55 PM
 

On this Veteran's Day they interviewed "Moki" Martin a veteran of SEAL Team 1 and the Vietnam War.  He's is the "real" deal in terms of being a military hero and a military watch collector.  His Tudor and Rolex were issued to him by the US Navy, bought from a ship's store, or traded with another SEAL.

Very engaging, captivating maybe is a better word. That Tudor has lived through some crazy stuff, as has the wearer. He also clearly has an eye for a good trade opportunity!

Amazing story
