A Must-Have
David was convinced now that a Rolex was the timekeeper he wanted to have on his wrist. He found one for $345.97 with a 10% discount which he thought was reasonable, considering that it was just shy of a whole month’s salary for him then. He placed his order at the on-base retail store in November of ‘74 and didn’t receive it until mid-April 1975, five-month-long slow mail.

Too Fancy To Wear
The Rolex Oyster Cosmograph, it had at last arrived and David was a little mesmerized as he sat on his bunk, staring at the excellent craftsmanship. He just couldn’t bring himself to put it on and go for a dive, he had decided that it was just too fancy to mess up with everyday activities. He placed it into a safety deposit box and there it waited for nearly forty years.
