I gave a purty good fake Heuer to my local rummage sale a couple of weeks back.
If I want the exact time, I'll go to WWV but doesn't look cool on my wrist.
Came up with a Wittnauer a couple of weeks ago. It had a tag from ATT&T on it. Early electric analog type. A little research found out that the company was giving them to those with 25years of service. Some of the people in my amateur radio club [largely Bell Labs retirees] noticed it. They had retired from the company after it was broken up and after the program was dicontinued.
