So it's a good one then? I always suspected the stuff on that Ali Express might be crap as the prices look too good to be true.Quote:

Like it.
I actually fixed this one! Needed a new crown/winding gubbins.Quote:

1950s but in a good way.
Nice understated number

Takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'.
Yes, definitely understated! I now think of you as... :D

What does the Bluetooth connectivity do, Roy?
Wouldn't be seen dead with anything like that on my wrist! :spew:
Haven’t really investigated that but think it helps with time setting? Bit of a gimmick really.Quote:

Is that what the 'G' stands for in 'G Shock'?
Anyway, everyone knows there are at least 35 genders of watch.
Lot going on there. What's the bit that looks like a fuel gauge do?

However without a strap or bracelet it's not much use as a timepiece.
My first watch was a Timex. The design of the legends on the dial was similar to yours, but without the green colour. It also had to be wound up.
I like that one, very elegant.
