    Happy 50th birthday Toni and congrats to the lucky winner. You are officially golden now and have crossed a horological milestone with this beautiful Citizen. You've now inspired me to find a birth year watch for my next natal day. All the best and thanks again for a fun channel, you're doing great work here. What some see as low numbers are solid ones to others who are on a similar quest.

      Thank you, Fred, and I don't think you'll have too much of a problem finding a watch produced in 1987 :)

    The 50 year old Leopard...has a cool sound to it 😁. Happy birthday and it's great to see a very relaxed approach to a passion that can otherwise create anxiety for many. I wish you health, understanding and inspiration in all that you do. Enjoy your journey 🤘🏻

    First and foremost, Many Happy Returns and it seems big congratulations are in order to you on reaching the mile stone of 50 years after hearing what happened to you. As usual great content delivered in high quality. I hope you enjoy your birth year watch and get to wear it for another 50 years.

    Good to get to know you a little better better Toni. I Hope you had a fantastic day and continue in good health. With a modest budget like you, I bought an English-cased 1960s gold plated dress watch as my birth-year watch on my 50th for a professional seller on Etsy. It has a classy Swiss Peseux 330 hand-winding movement, a big acrylic crystal and silky sunburst champagne dial, is only 7mm thick and keeps excellent time, -- couldn't be happier. Congratulations to the winner.

    I wish you, you celebrate your "other" 50th birthday Toni, the one that started the day you almost got to the "other" side...
    Be well mate, enjoy whatever you love. Cheers ♥🙏
    PS Your first shots, on (almost) sepia, brought so many memories for me too. Yup, that's the kind of pictures we recall from that era.
    PS2 Congrats to the winner and the offerer(s). But especially you for creating this small community around your channel. Kudos.

    I’m 48 now. At 39 and a half, I went a full heart attack, and a very professional doctor (RIP) saved my life.
    It didn’t change me, yet I made many changes in my life. One of them was to abandon my career in private security-and become a therapist, hydro and sports.
    I introduced regular rigorous training to my life, and more than anything- I promised myself to do what ever is in my power to stay healthy and alive for my daughters, as long as fate will give me.
    The watch collection started soon after my dad passed, and watches were the only subject we didn’t fight and argued over- so I keep talking with him about my watches, and I keep buying more so I have more things to talk about with him…

    I bought a 16600 Rolex SeaDweller ten years ago. I still have it. It is kind of a birth year watch. I was born many decades before 2002, so I understand your confusion. Imagine trying to find let alone buy a Rolex from around the middle of the 20th century of any model in good condition that hasn't been frankensteined to death. Such a Rolex would cost tens and tens maybe hundreds of thousands. However, the SeaDweller I have has serial number that contains my birth year. A happy coincidence.

      Haha, very convenient coincidence! Congratulations on an amazing purchase and thank you for stopping by!
