Through the PACEX catalog, Americans serving in the Pacific were offered the opportunity to purchase goods intended for sale in the markets in which they were stationed. The catalog included cameras, stereos, chinaware, small appliances, and, of course, watches. While most of the items were manufactured in the Pacific (like Seiko watches and Fujifilm cameras, for example), some were made outside the area but simply sold there, such as a Swiss watch. This watch was sold July 1, 1968, for $92.50 and is described as "1 Tudor watch" on the receipt, with intent for personal use. With a full set of box and papers, receiving this watch will offer nearly the same experience as the first owner. Just imagine yourself picking it out in the PACEX before the mailman arrives while you're heading to the HODINKEE Shop to make it your own.
