I saw a watch on a TV programme from the early 80s that I'd quite like. I have only found one reference to it on google, in this (cached) page: Clicky

Images:



Any ideas where I could look?

ebay; timezone.com; tz-uk.com; thewatchforum.co.uk

I would imagine you'll be a long time looking for that exact watch, however, it looks to me like one of any number of Valjoux based divers-style chronos produced in the 70s. So if you don't mind it not saying Baylor you could probably get a very similar one quite easily.

Ah... err... yeah... I'm not into watches as much as I'm into this programme. It said Baylor on there so Baylor it is biggrinpaperbag
