Bought in 1970 in a Tokyo PX.
Date is wrong, lol. I can’t see it anyway. Just noticed it with the pic. I’ll get it correct.
The Tachymeter is very correct.
Flew a lot back in the day. Some of the airplanes would have an indicator that showed air speed.
If we were traveling over an area like Oklahoma where everything is laid out in 1 mile squares, I could pick out a speck of dust on the window, start the Tachymeter, and stop it when the speck crossed the mile line.
Look up at the speed indicator and it matched very closely.
TRIPLE, QUADRUPLE DIBBS!!!!
