I still have one of these that was given to me by my dad in the 70's.

Just need a new battery to get it working I hope!

I saw what appeared to be an attractive female geek wearing one the other day.

In reality, they've come back in with this whole "retro" crap.

But if you see an Asian man with a lumpy rucksack who is wearing one... Run.

Seem to recall paying about £15 for one on Amazon last year... it's one of the ones I take travelling if I think there's a risk I might be relieved of my watch or simply want to tone it down a bit.

Only problem is that now the case is metallised plastic (with metal case back) instead of all metal like the original ones.
