So assuming you actually have to...

You'll need to do something that doesn't come up in the social zeitgeist that often, but is instantly recognizable to anyone from that era.

Maybe talk about how a lot of the time people's watches said different times and you didn't know which ones were right?

Alternatively you can share some personal anecdote that relates to well known trends at the time. Like talk about listening to smells like teen spirit while smoking cigarettes stolen from your friend's older brother.
