It was L_O_N_G --> A_G_O and far away. it had a pepsi bezel,was a quartz, it was MANLY sized and I was a boy. Now the BEST one I ever owned took 23+ years of abuse, a H558-5009, It's gets some wrist rest time now after it got relieved by the new SKXline, I dont think its happy now being in the draw, not being ALL IT CAN BE

I wish it could talk. I'll post pix soon, it looks like it went through WWI, WWII, Korea, +Nam's front lines and re-upped every time!

I've learned alot just by.....

'WATCHING!'
