I can't bear not knowing the time [hate the X mins ago on posts in here and may have mentioned that a few times before. .tell me the actually time without having to hover over it not how long ago please!  ]

I never take my watch off just in case I'd forget to put it back on. .  I always have a waterproof watch so I never have to worry about removing it  when washing etc

I also have two clocks in my lounge as well and hate when one of them needs a new battery and shows the wrong time ..  I may be a bit OCD about the need to know the time thing

I thought of you when I first read this thread.     Your fancy watch is soooo beautiful.    And the excitement not only you felt when you were buying it, but all us online friends and your family...   

You just wouldn't get that with a £4.99 job! 

Spookily, I also thought about you & your watch yesterday morning...   as I watched..  heart in mouth as MrD cracked open his Tag with a pair of pliers      He's replacing the battery HIMSELF!!!!    (says he refuses to pay the couple of hundred quid for the annual service this year!)  

(one of the screws was sooooo tiny it looked a bit of smeg on the end of the teeny tiny magnetic screw driver)

Bottom line for me on this one is... 

whether it be a beautiful watch, or a beautiful phone...   its all about beautiful design!    When I see something that is a beautiful example of beautiful design I have to stroke it 

My theory on it all.. be it a watch, a phone, a house, a car, a huge telly, a piece of art...if you can afford it, if having it isn't going to hurt anyone and if YOU will derive pleasure from it.. go for it.     I don't wear a watch any more - just sort of got out the habit of wearing one - use my phone if I'm out and V+ box in the living room and the oven in the kitchen.

I've never worn a watch and can't see why I would need one.  I've got various clocks if I'm at home, a clock in the car, and anywhere else, I can look at my mobile phone if there isn't a clock in sight.

Buy cheap and sell dear. Wonder how much this would make on EBay??Might buy another and try it for a laugh.

If you get £4.98 you've done well.

I'd need to know the serial number first.
