I've got one as well
Well forgive this as a first post, been hanging around and reading up, great site.
I got mine as a 21st birthday present, was either this or an air king and this cost £50 more at the time and my Dad pushed the boat out and got this.
I've worn it every day for the last 20 years, swimming and DIYing - its been super reliable and only back to rolex twice.
Only found out it was valuable last year when I bought my wife a Rolex and asked if they could do an insurance valuation on mine at the time.
Bought in 1990 but the serial numbers date it to 1982. (8 years unsold would explain the discount Dad got !!)
I do now have a casio that I use when doing anything extremely stupid after I hit the face of it with an angle grinder when cutting a hole in a wall for a tumble dryer (one of the trips back to Rolex).
Anyway hope I have attached the picture
Jeff
