A classic design.

Agree the XXL version has better cosmetics, but I think I would confuse 1 o'clock and 5 o'clock on the watch (at the top and bottom of the dial respectively) with 12 and 6 o'clock on a more conventional design.
How many watches do you possess Roy? Do you have enough so you can wear a different watch for each day of the year? :)
While since I’ve done a ‘stock take’ but around the 200 mark so not quite!
I like that one. :)Quote:

Cheap as chips, but worth a lot more to me considering where I got it.
Bought from Don Quijote, the most bizarre place!
Can buy everything from a bog brush, toothpaste, a 4Ltr plastic bottle of Jim Beam to a genuine Rolex Daytona.
Its nuts, and I loved it.
Can't wait to go back.
The non-stealth versionQuote:

I like that one. Understated, yet it does all you need from a watch.
Not bad - I quite like that one. :)Quote:

A solar powered watch? I suppose I shouldn't be surprised; after all there are self winding watches, battery powered watches, so solar power is the next logical step.
I was wondering if there are 'radio watches', that is watches that are wireless linked to atomic clocks, like the wall clock in our kitchen? Perhaps the Apple watch does the same?
That's a cool watch.Quote:

Would never pay that amount for a casio though.
I'm sure there are other manufacturers producing radio controlled watches just not something I've ever looked into.
Agreed, and it's far too 'macho' for my tastes.
My Seiko watch is solar. It's great. Super accurate, and doesn't actually need sunlight to keep going. Mine lives on the dressing table nowhere near the window. Keeps its battery charged, which should go several years before needing replacement.Quote:

I think I would get annoyed by the bubble. ;)Quote:
