    Don't try this without supervision kids; I'm a trained professional...

    Uh...yeah...

    Getting ready for a week off and I am only taking ONE watch! One. Watch. A rather quirky one at that. The upsides to this watch are that it has 100m resistance, the lume is the strongest of any watch I own and the ceramic bracelet is unbeatable for comfort. The downsides...I don't really care about them in this case.

    You must be going on a watch shopping trip, otherwise this makes no sense whatsoever. Enjoy!

    P.S. Cool Rado.

    I know the feeling. I am not entirely convinced this will turn out well.

    Thank you. I don't think there are any decent watch shops where I am going. This is sort of an experiment.

    I just hurt myself trying that! Dammit!
    There is no error so monstrous that it fails to find defenders among the ablest men.
