Healey owners that love watches

Greetings
I'm a long time Healey owner and also a watch collector. I subscribe to a few online watch collecting forums and occasionally I run across something interesting, for me or potentially for someone I know.

There is a pre-owned limited edition Healey commemorative watch on the TimeZone Sales Corner that I thought some of you may be interested in.

Whether this is affordable to is between you and your checkbook. As a collector, I see an interesting piece that may have meaning for some of you here. Personally, I stay away from watches that have corporate logos or commercial tie ins, but many folks like them.
Happy Holidays!

The North Texas Austin Healey Club sells THIS watch.

I don't have any stake in it, but it does help the club.

Cool video, Dougie. I have never seen this particular commemorative watch in the wild but it seems to be a pretty good piece with a decent pedigree. At a significantly reduced price (pre-owned)I might add. I just thought it might be of interest to a fellow Healey owner with a penchant for nice wrist watches.

The Healey watch being sold by the Texas club as a fund raising tool is an entirely different animal. With all due respect to our Texas friends, it's like comparing a Schwinn bicycle to a Porsche 911S. Both will get the job done but in an entirely different style :>)

Cheers to all

<span style="font-size: 12pt">More like a neighbor telling you that he just found (in parents' barn :laugh: ) a very RARE Italian car

(which you IMMEDIATELY start thinking & <span style="font-weight: bold">PRAYING</span> is an <span style="color: #990000"><span style="font-weight: bold">early '60s Ferrari 250GTO</span></span>)

which he takes you to see (so he can DUMP it on you :wall: ) and it turns out to be a X1/9 !!!
