I've wondered about it for a while, and, in the end, I decided to add this watch to my shelf - Zeppelin Hindenburg LZ-129.
Its look, mimicking the 1930's appearance and dials of the control mechanisms of the airship, is delightful enough on its own, but I think that, while it is obviously not directly related to any of Junior's adventures, it has an Indyish fit that extends its charm even further. In fact, I am quite convinced that it was watching "Crusade" in kindergarten, and glaring at the scenes of Junior and Henry Senior aboard the Zeppelin, that imprinted me with a degree of fascination with it and appreciation for it, and made me immediately interested in this watch as soon as I found out about its existence.
And the most endearing part of the packaging is the presence of the warranty card - because it is a replica of the true Zeppelin ticket from 1930. No more problems with any pesky Juniors wandering over to check them and reacting aggressively!
