The mechanical alarms were louder surely?

LCD watch with an "analogue" display.

When I was about 12, I wanted one of those so much.

Blimey. I hadn't seen the name "Westclox" for decades.

I remember having one of these, minus the day/date:



ETA: Damn it, damn it, damn it. Now I have a need for one. fksocks.

Interesting that some of the Casio's haven't changed at all, and there's a black divers towards the end by 'Nissan' that would look like a current model if seen in a jewellers.

I mean the TICK, TICK, TICK, TICK.. you didn't need the alarm as you couldn't sleep throught the ticking.

They weren't that bad. I had one. You get used to it.

I remember breaking a couple of those casio's while at school/ out on the BMX.

The first "proper" watch i bought myself was from Argos, a Seiko auto,with day date.
