    For me it was a pleasure to keep it out of the waste stream and see it get used. The entire folly coast me a total of around $25 ($13 for the battery and $12 for shipping to Geoff) and it taught be a lot about how G-Shocks are built.
    Too many watches, not enough wrists.

    Hooray! Hopefully they didn't charge you duty. I put a low value on it. How is the accuracy on the elevation reading? It was fairly easy to calibrate, and you can find the user manual PDF online (I can email you a copy if you wish.)

    No charge but if I get a bill I'll pay it no probs! All part of the game.

    Altitude is off right now - says I'm 440ft above th sea but I'm about 10 feet really. I'll work it out. Manual time methinks.

    Great size-wears way smaller then pics would suggest!

    Maybe it's the James Bond edition. It has a hidden button that shoots out a flame.
