I always loved calculator watches, but never got around to getting one.

Still very cool though, regardless of value! And it's awesome that you still have it all of these years!

All very nice watches. Do you ever carry the pocket watch? I have one from about 1885 or so that runs nicely (my grandfather's) but it is never carried.
