Hi
anniversary of purchase by my dad of his 1016 brand new from NAAFI in Changi Singapore 22/11/1965. He was stationed there with the Royal Marines during the Malaysian insurgencies.
Not sure how much he paid but probably not a great deal in todays terms! The watch had been certified 3 years earlier in 1962 so waiting lists for steel sports/tool watches were not a "thing" then
