I'm a history graduate, and specialised in Rome and Late Antiquity, mainly religious history. We did a piece where a group of senators were clubbing together to get a water clock for whichever Emperor it was - I guess there must have been ancient WISes as well!

As for me, the mid-1950s would be a pretty interesting time to visit the watch world, a lot of iconic watches came out around then!

I think in French jail, they make you be the Madeliene. Don't drop Le Soap. 馃榾

I would love to live through the 80s. Everything about it looks so awesome.

Yeah...... It wasn't that awesome. 馃槣 Unless you like two tone quartz watches, Madonna, Bon Jovi, and black laquer with brass & glass furniture, that is.

My favourite type of music is Heavy Metal and I love a lot of bands from the '80s, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, GNR etc. Thats why I'd love to live through the 80s. 馃榾

Well, there were a lot of hair bands for sure. For every good one, there was a cheesy one that fell by the wayside. The problem is they still got radio play back then.

Would have thought hair bands would be outside your speciality 馃嵖

I'am partial to the 60''s as my SM300 is a 1966 and my Jimi Hendrix poster in my Jam room may come crashing down . My birth year was 61....lol....no bias here.

60's or 70's - I'm not fussy. '63 to '73 will do just fine.

But absolutely nothing would entice me to go back to the 80's 馃槻
