Got a "New" Watch
« on: December 02, 2010, 10:26:59 PM »
Found this watch a while back and got it's metal band replaced w/ a vic rubber one, and got a new battery.  Not really an (American) football fan but I love the watch.  Here are the pics.

I'm not normally a two-tone watch fan, but I like this.  The hour indices look cool!  :tu:

Thanks.  The hands and the indicators other than 12,3,9, and the date/6 glow in the dark really bright.  And I am not normally a two tone fan either but I like the watch.  I am waiting it until my replacement wenger arrives.  The wenger came DOA the first time.

Cool!  Here is a pic that kinda shows my watch.  It is the only pic I have on the computer, and am too lazy to get the camera right now ;)

Here is a link to a thread showing the same setup as I have with better pics (not mine).

I like the looks of that Wenger.  It looks like the lume is pretty good too.
