The best IMO are the two Auro Montanari AKA John Goldberger Talking Watches. The greatest shot in all of the Talking Watches (IMO) is when Goldberger is showing Ben Clymer a gorgeous 1940s Longines chronograph (one of 8 known) and when ask to discuss the movement he casually reaches over and grabs a cheese knife wipes it on the arm of his blazer jacket and proceeds to crack the case with the knife. This is in his first Talking Watches when the videography was far more stylized for better or worse.

Olongapo bands were custom made in the Phillipines for guys going to and from Vietnam. Usually decorated with unit insignia, qualification badges, etc. You can still order them from the same guy who made them then. Considered very bad form to wear them unless you have a military or LEO background.
