I hate to admit that my newly refurbished '66 Vette clock is more reliable than my '72 Rolex Sub! Maybe I have more time than I thought!

I trust and use my iPhone, never my clock in the '67. Dennis

A good luxury mechanical watch is reasonably precise but never a purchase predicated on the final word in precision. Don't sweat it and enjoy both!

If the vette clock were wrong you might install a quartz movement. That might be the fix for the Rolex.

When was the last time you sent your Rolex in for service?

My $30 Timex has always been spot-on and appears indestructible.

Sometimes the clock in my car runs backwards a little bit and then stops. Kind of endearing. I think it's trying to get back to 1967.

When it's running forward it's pretty accurate.

ACCURATE

Made mine a quartz movement in my 65 and it keeps perfect time ..and I mean perfect..

wmf62

so does my 'Rolex' lookalike... (with a Timex movement...)

Get that sub serviced by Rolex! Too cool to be unreliable.

It may have been on the wrist of a dude flying off Yankee Station.

Y'all think Rolex will ever come into the 21st Century? Having one must be kinda like driving a Stanley Steamer.

I get my "X" serviced every 5-7 years, last time $900. Have owned it for 26years and still like it. Probably have more in service than original cost.

I took the clock out of my resto and filled the hole. Wanted to keep the upper AC vent and need the room for ducting and a better speaker.

Actually I was kidding a bit. The '72 Rolex was serviced before I bought it. This is a good glamour shot of it.

Juan and Luke, Are you really older than 10?

I don't care about spending that much on a Rolex watch when I can have a Timex and never have it serviced (so I save $900.00) plus the price of the Rolex and if my $20.00 Times stops or keeps bad time I will spend $5.00 for a new battery and it don't work then there is always the file 13 and spend another $20.. for another Timex. I have had this Timex about 5 yrs and still have original battery in it and it keeps great time. As far as a Corvette clock keeping good time? well if you bought a 63 Vette you can pretty much bet by 1964 the clock did not work anymore. I had quarts movement put into one of my C2 Vette Clocks and that lasted less then 6 months before it crapped out. I just look at my good old Timex.

The dash clock in my 66 is never right.
It runs and might be able to keep time but I'll never know because I use a battery cut off switch and never bother re-setting the clock.

Using that logic, you should have a Chevette and not a Corvette!

juanvaldez

Will a Chevette do 180? Will a Rolex tell time?

ChattanoogaJSB

Would these two be nearly as iconic checking out their iPhones for time?




I have luxury watches and Quartz obviously as well. But I'll always wear a watch.

juanvaldez

I think that was 1960 somethin'.
