Ken,

Here is one - Vintage is a relative term right?  This is the first watch I bought for myself right out of HS.



This is one that I found that was my fathers.  Its a 7005 series Seiko that is keeping time like a champ after sitting in a box untouched for ~20 years.



Then there is my Bulova Concentric 23 Jewel - Six Adjustments - 3 Positions from 1952:



Or my Russian Slava Medical Watch NOS from 1989 (pre-USSR Fall):
