About the Item

NAMED ONE OF WATCHPRO MAGAZINE’S “HOT 100” - THE TOP 100 INFLUENCERS OF THE U.S. WATCH INDUSTRY. HOW CAN WE SERVE YOU? We’re new to offering our carefully curated collection on 1stDibs, but we have sold over 10,000 fine watches and exceptionally served thousands of customers with a 5.0 star rating. OWNED & USED BY ZZ TOP'S DUSTY HILL - Harley Davidson Chrome Pocket Watch Full Provenance with 2 COAs - 1 Year Warranty Today's offering showcases this Harley Davidson pocketwatch on a chain owned by Dusty Hill, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member, and chart-topping recording artist for legendary rock band ZZ Top. Among their many honors, ZZ Top received multiple Grammy Awards, including a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2020, recognizing their enduring contributions to the music industry. It's not surprising that if Mr. Hill owned a pocketwatch it was a Harley Davidson one. It was sold as a "Collector's Watch" by the Franklin Mint. It is marked "Heritage Softail" on the dial and has the motorcycle embossed on the inside of the case lid. In July 2021, the music world mourned the loss of Mr. Hill, who passed away at the age of 72. While his physical presence may be gone, his spirit lives on through the timeless music of ZZ Top—a testament to his enduring impact on the world of rock and roll. Owning an item that belonged to Dusty Hill is not just a piece of memorabilia—it's a cherished artifact that embodies the spirit of a true rock legend. With each note played and each lyric sung, Dusty's influence reverberates through the ages, ensuring his legacy remains eternally preserved in the annals of music history. We have not polished the watch or done anything to the outside of it, we left it just as Mr. Hill last used it. The only overhauling we did was having one of our Master Watchmakers install a new battery to make it ready for immediate enjoyment. Accompanying it is a Certificate of Provenance from a well-knwon auction house and a Certificate of Authenticity. Don't miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to own one of Dusty Hill's watches.
