Wrist Watch

[Bisque]

What's the best type of watch to wear to a camping music festival?

[Gre]

Casio F91W? Everyone had one when I was a kid.

Less than than a tenner. Battery runs for ages. Clear figures. Alarm. Its even got a light!

[Bisque]

Ahhhh, memories! I have the same but the water proof (not water resistant) version. Use it for running as it's light & thin so it doesn't catch on nything.

Anyone have the gold/silver metal strap versions?

(i hope that reply was something like you were expecting )

dunno about him, but deliberately meaningless twaddle posts haven't ever been the thing round here, and they ain't gonna start now.

I have a delete button and will use it from now on.

Fair enough, boredom at work & a bit of money to spend on eBay.

Eh, starting to catch on now!

Seriously, thinking about it on the train back from work, this is on the discussions page & I do want a new watch to wear at a festival.

My friend found a genuine Rolex at Glastonbury 2008 (my Dad has one to compare it too). Poor bloke who lost that. It was a blue Submariner.

My friend swears by his gold/silver Casios. He says girls always tell him he has a cool watch

I've been wearing one of these (black) for about 20 years now. It's been through all sorts and I've only had to replace the strap once and the battery maybe 3 times.

This is the 2010 model...

I am really tempted to buy this one as it has the Tough Solar built in (ie has solar panels so technically limitless battery life) & I prefer the matt finish.

I wear a breo watch, small , light, waterproof and looks ok..does the job nicely

I've had this one for about 3 years. Slight overkill, but its a great watch. If you like hiking the altimeter is pretty handy

I've seen a lot of runners around London with these. Been wanting to know who made them. Looks pretty handy & does all you need it to do a festival. Are they expensive?

But--would you have the inner strength and morals to therefore delete your own twaddle then?

while you and others might regard it twaddle, it's still the case that my posts are addressing the subject of the thread or posts within that thread.

That was not the case with the post I commented on, nor of the others that I've just deleted.

If you wish to waste your time by making those posts, go ahead. If you wish to waste my time by continually making posts like those, then I'll go ahead.
