Yea, it was a great experience. I was a fresh rookie cop at the time making squat. In fact if you look at my wrist I was wearing a $10 plastic watch at the time.

Tom Selleck was really well liked and thought of by all who worked on the set. Very humble, super funny and had a great energy with all. He really was just one of the guys. Obviously he was the star of the show and everything revolved around him, but he did not act that way at all.

One of my first Field Training Officers was a regular on the show and asked me if I wanted to be an extra. You had to join the Screen Extra's Guild. All in all it was a great time to be young and in Hawaii.

Tom Selleck gave Rolex I believe to several cast and crew members at the wrap party one year.

In one of the pictures you can see his watch, but I don't know what it is. Can anybody blow that up?
