What watch did Tom Selleck wear on Magnum PI before the Pepsi?

[redmess]

I wish the Superbowl was at 4:30 not 6:30!

I believe a Chronosport.

YEP!

Me on Magnum P.I. They used real Honolulu Police Officers to play the part of police officers on the show. I am the blonde haired cop in the background shuffling papers.

Mr. Selleck is a real nice stand up guy! Often ate with us at lunch time and was really funny off camera as well.

Cool.

I do, he was much better in the series that he played in prior to that??

Edit: I just rememebered I think it was called Canon.

But William Conrad actually played Matt Dillion (Gunsmoke) on radio. To big to play Matt Dillion on TV.

Are the white short-shorts coming back in style?

Just kidding, I was a huge Magnum fan and never missed an episode.

Thanks, the radio stuff was a bit before my time. I may have read that once however, I know I read an article about him a long time ago. His weight kind of prevented him from living up to his full potential I believe.

Yeah, he was kind of a pudge. If you ever get to see the movie "THE KILLERS" with Bert Lancaster, watch for Conrad as one of the hired thugs. He was a pretty good actor after all.
