Going to drop another one of my new vintage bombs on you......Up today is a quartz Heuer Kentucky. The Kentucky line featured an automatic chronograph, digital quartz and analog quartz models. These cases were made in the shape of a horseshoe to evoke feelings of the Kentucky Derby. These were introduced in the 1977 catalog and only lasted a few years. These had a pin lock on the clasp to prevent accidental opening. New Year...old watches!

Alright, I have to ask Darius. How long have you had this? I remember it, but am not sure if it's just
from seeing the watch online before, or on your wrist. Holy cow, what a design, AND the dial !!! .. cyclops

cheers Oh neat Darius !!! Wasn't 100 % sure, but felt a real tremor in the Force this time. ..You picked out another stunner
here. Can see why you were looking forward to this beauty so much really. ..This dial is epic with the tone of the purple.
Seems to go from a muted silver sun-ray purple at times, to an amazing deep purple at others. Wow, looks like they
did it again here ! Not only the dial, but the textured bezel, as well as super smooth bracelet rock also !!! WRUW Saturday 1/03/2015 46145

This one's so sharp, but really sinister Darius. Big congrats sir !
