My recently acquired re-issue of the Yankees Piping Rock. Not mint, but still in nice shape. I had been wanting one since I first saw it in a Honolulu jewelry store in 1994. If I was an MLB player I think I would take a World Series watch over a ring any day!:001_smile:

Very nice! I'm all in favor of an 80th Anniversary model!

I like it!!
Quartz or not that would get a ton of wrist time!!

That's a real gobsmacker, as our cousins across the pond would say.

Thanks, guys. Unlike the yellow gold re-issue, the white gold Yankees model came with a hand wind mechanical movement! She went into the shop for a cleaning yesterday. Can't wait to have it on the wrist.

When was this reissued?

Wow!

I thought all the re=issues were quartz.

You hit the jackpot!

Early 1990s, although I am not sure when it was discontinued or how many were produced.

I believe this may have been the only re-issue that was ever offered with a mechanical movement (Khaki line excluded). Personally, I think the entire line of American Classics should be mechanical with the exception of the ones that were originally electric (i.e. Ventura, Everest). Maybe I should send in a suggestion letter!

I just recently found this watch in my closet. I forgot I had it. Any idea on the value of this watch. I have been looking everywhere but cannot get a listing.

Thanks
