They made watches with Tricky Dick's face on it?

I bet there is one somewhere lol....

I just became aware of this brand...seems like they are sort of in fashion...they are sort of in the same league as Seiko and Citizen price wise. I saw one of the techs sporting one with...had a larger than usual size watch face on it.

I knew a guy back in the 80's that had a huge watch face. Bigger than the stuff you see around today. If you'd ask him what time it was he'd dump out a pile of coke on it. Guess he was ahead of his time

Lol I hope he is still around....that must have been a sight to see lol

Yeah the Nixons with a watch face that are a bit larger than a silver dollar are going for around 150-200 dollars new on Ebay. I had a battery put in my Nixon today...it works. SCORE! my watch is an older one run of the mill.

now that is a watch

Who was worse Carl Nixon or the Tea Party?

i was only a kid when he was President....

I really cannot stand the Tea Party, however I am sure many hated Nixon for some pretty valid reasons....

They now have new caps, new tweeters, binding posts, new grill cloth and several coats of feed and wax. Tonight they passed the DSOTM test, and have also served up the Stones, Asleep at the Wheel, Steely Dan, and Bill Evans. They are ready to be adopted by a young man who is just starting his career as a firefighter and likes music as much as I do.
