With the Turn-O-Graph recently being discontinued, I think pieces like this may come to hold a special place in collectors' hearts. The watch has had a long history of association with U.S. Air Force pilots, hence the nickname "Thunderbird". The red accents and marked bezel add a nice touch of sportiness to what would otherwise be a dressy watch. This piece just recently returned from regular service and is in top condition. If you prefer the more vintage looking 'Thunderbirds' we have a couple of those as well. (RLX6042 and RLX5901). - P.J.
All dates are in red. The 116263 Thunderbird was discontinued in 2012.
