The wife and I have been trying to get rid of some of the 'stuff' we've accumulated over the years. Needless to say, lots of it revolves around Corvettes, and especially, ZR1's.
Anyway, we came across a piece that I forgot we had. A ladies, gold, LT5/ZR1 watch. Made by Henry Paul (as many of the other Corvette watches are / were), on a Seiko movement. What's perhaps more interesting, is that it has #0001 stamped on the back.
My memory is not so great, but fortunately, the wife's is better. Seems that the ladies version was never offered. I bought the men's version, and she felt left out. After quite a bit of pestering, Mr. Paul agreed to make up some ladies watches. My wife's was indeed number one, and she's pretty sure that Marion Hurst got number 2. We're not sure if any others were ever made.
Does anyone else have one of these? Or even remember them being available? We're most likely going to sell it, so any idea what its worth (or better yet, interest?) Since I have a men's watch, we could sell the matched set.
Thanks,
Toby Johnson
