Part I: The Long Return
This is the unforgettable story of how a Tudor watch reunited two marines who served in the same infantry troop in Vietnam. On one fateful day in Vietnam, First Lieutenant Barry Jones was attacked by enemy fire as he was leading his battalion through the thick jungles of DaNang. Finding his fellow soldier wounded on the battlefield with his watch dangling off his wrist, Corpsman Lori Mclaughlin provides immediate medical attention and secures the watch. Fifty years later, with the watch still frozen in time, the two men reunite.
Part II: The Restoration
A year later, 1st Lieutenant Barry Jones’ Tudor Submariner is taken to the Rolex Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland to be restored. Barry is also reunited with Corpsman Lori Mclaughlin in Hood River, Oregon to recount how the past year has gone after first filming their stories. With their bond strongly in tact, we join the two men to see if Jones’ Submariner can indeed be restored, and to what end can it remain true to the original.
