Friday’s watch is a ‘73 Citizen Quartz 8811  Heading over to the neighbours shortly for a beer and whiskey. I’m not so much a fan of a smokey, peaty Islay drop. Dimple is fine. Regards, Ross |

Rainy, crappy day. Little bit of sunshine on the wrist. Day/date has an issue but I can barely see it without my glasses. Rob  |

Grabbed a beater and ran out the door in a rush this morning to meet an auditor at my office. It is Feb 30th right?  |

They threatened us with 1"-3" of snow overnight. We got maybe 1/2". Not complaining, mind you.  |

I really like this Timex but, man, it goes through batteries like crazy! Fitted the second one in a year last night. Beautiful blue dial that photos don’t do justice to.  |

6139- 6002 again today. Scruffy but shaping-up, and, a great time- keeper! Currently my daily wearer...   |

Another modest vintage, it just checks all the boxes for me. Next to impossible to capture the dial using a cell phone.  |

They would increase the resistance which in turn would increase the current consumption. I’ve read that even fingerprints on batteries can reduce the life by a huge amount. |
