On a sales trip to New York City in 1955, with some time to kill before his flight he popped into a local bar. Stumbling out some time later he took a wrong turn down a Manhattan street and found himself outside a taxidermist shop, staring at a display of stuffed Penguins. A few dollars later and one was his, affectionately named Pete.The cocktails flowed on the flight home and enthusiasm getting the better of him, Pederson managed to knock poor Pete’s head off. With the help of the seductive stewardess Pederson removed his tie and wrapped it around the penguin’s neck, saving him from a life without head. She unknowingly joked such a dapper bird ought to be immortalised or even embroidered on a shirt similar to Pederson’s.And thus in 1955 the Munsingwear golf shirt was born, as comfortable on the green as in the club house. A cool combination of retro flair and subtle branding, it is endorsed by celebrities, yet embraced by the everyman. It is classic for work, yet casual for bar-hopping; it is sold all over the world, yet found in only the most select stores. From Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Arnold Palmer, Clint Eastwood and Richard Nixon, Pete the Penguin has adorned the shirts of some of the world’s most (in)famous men. As the air stewardess suggested the headless penguin be immortalised on a shirt similar to that of Munsingwear salesman Abbot Pederson, how little she knew. ## Features - Quartz Analogue watch - Penguin logo etched on the dial - Red second hand - Has both the 12 hour and 24 hour digits printed on the black dial - Round case with orange Nylon strap ## Images ![Original Penguin Men's Quartz Watch Nylon Strap - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81g4HmopFXL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Nice retro look watch *by R***H on Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2013* This is a nice looking watch with a great retro look.
