Revisiting an old hobby
Hello from Scotland.
I recently re-awakened an interest from my youth in watches and clocks. Strangely the catalyst was searching for a replacement hand for a Starrett dial indicator that I picked up for pennies on ebay and which I though might be useful for leveling the bed on my 3d printer. It was missing the dial hand, which looked very like a watch second hand, so that led to a search for a suitable donor watch. Needless to say I then got distracted by the vast array of old time pieces
The Rodeo - What can I say? It is a fashion watch... but I'm not sure what fashion it refers to.
I think it has to be from the 1970s.
Probably best worn with huge bell bottom trousers, platform soles a collar the size of Texas and big hair (or perhaps best not worn at all).
Made in France, with a jeweled 21600bph movement, but a strange multi-part plastic case. Is it a gents, as the dimensions and strap suggest, or is it a ladies, as the small dial might lead you to think.
