New Incoming

This is new incoming (should be here sometime between 12/10 and 12/20). It's the first quartz watch I've bought in over 15 years, but I couldn't resist the complications and at the price point it was irresistable:

I think the crown doubles as an air chuck for filling tires.

Indeed, a lot going on.

I bought a G-Shock with a whole bunch of function like that and thought I would wear it when travelling in Greece last year. It was so complicated that I couldn't figure out how to set some of the functions. I got so frustrated I gave it to my 26 year old son and of course he had no problem figuring it out.

Sorry I missed your post till tonight, Ken. We had a very nice Thanksgiving, even though we were only 4 (Arleen and me, our daughter, and my mother). My daughter made hot toddies which were delicious.

We then left for Boca Friday morning and we'll be here till next Saturday (a short trip but jam packed - no down time to just relax). But it's fun.

Wow. You're going to have to explain all those functions, because I couldn't even begin to understand from just looking? Is that 7 function buttons I'm counting?
