I think Topps had several different awards that were given out at these banquets that are not well documented. I have a a watch from 69' that was a presentation piece that I have never seen another of. I believe it was for football, but still unable to track down who it was presented to.
Even though I posted years ago about it, there are still photos in this thread. It's post #35. If anyone can offer more info on it, I would be very happy. I think I have never been to a show and not had someone ask about it as I love to wear it.

I missed that thread originally. Never seen the watch-wow!
There used to be college All American Baseball Players. I assume one of these ten first teamers received that watch at some point:
P Larry Gura
P Burt Hooton
C Bob Williams
1B Mike Walseth
2B Dick Gold
3B Les Rogers
SS Bill Stein
OF Bob Long
OF Paul Powell
OF Larry Pyle
