Oh , and you must declare whether or not you have a Bully XL

Ah no - that's just going to turn into one of these kind of threads:

I think watches are like guitars - much more fun to be had scouting round for interesting stuff below the radar.

I'd much rather look through threads like this than the archetypal My latest piece of aspirational wear / bling (on slightly pudgy indoor-guy wrist/with questionable shirt and invariably even more ill-judged cuff-links) ..

@CavemanGrogg I know some Casios have auto time setting, even when you change time zones. I briefly had some Edifice model which did this but I can't remember which model. Maybe something like this would be suitable?

The G-Shock I'm wearing is a ''semi-smart'' watch, it is super simple to setup so that you never need to adjust the date or time on it once - in fact you only need to touch one button on it to set it up and make every adjustment you can possibly want to do to it, and that's it, as long as it's battery is charged you never need to adjust anything again. The face on it is a lot busier than I'd like it to be, though it is nowhere near as obvious in person than in photos - for example the digital bits are next to invisible unless you use the light which I've turned off on mine.

Ah cool. You're already sorted then. I must admit it's pretty nifty they can do that and I can see why that sort of convenience appeals. A G-Shock of some description is on the list, so one that sort the time and date out by itself is definitely a strong contender. Thanks for jogging my memory on these watches – I completely forgotten until I saw your post describing such a thing

The Dreyfuss is jolly handsome.

As is the Certina. A nice little collection there @rze99 ;

Just remembered this Timex Pepsi thing I had a couple of years back.

The moonwatch was nice too.

I don't have either now.

I was more interested in the theft potential and just thought better to be hung for a sheep than a lamb

Howdy, Stranger!
