My Vintage - ref 6782 Thunderbird in rare metal
Hi all - I am sharing the reference 6782 Thunderbird in white gold which is extremely rare as far as I know. Most of this watch was made of yellow gold in late 60s.
I still remember the day when I acquired this and also when I shared in the other forum sometimes ago.
This beast was not worn for sometimes thus I am taking a new picture for this nice Thunderbird. Have a good week.
