Thought I'd get to grips with my new G-9000 Mudman today - see if the negative LCD is as difficult to read as some people say. As an aside I am amazed at the results from an iPhone 3 camera, much less hassle than setting up one of my full frame DSLRs on a tripod.

There was one of those on eBay I took a fancy to but it made more than I wanted to pay. Still looking ...

For today I am giving my GW-3000B-1AER an airing, going to a club committee meeting tonight so want to show off. This one sort of re-started my G-Shock obsession, bought at a good discount, after much internet and soul searching, from TikTox - great service and a keen price

Another candidate for my daily driver is this pre-owned G-1800D now with two links taken out to fit my wrist properly.

I don't often need to know the exact time - five to two or half-oneish is normally accurate enough and the advantage of having hands is that I can glance at the watch and seethe time rather than work out that 1:38:45 means two o'clock less just over 21 minutes or twenty to two. Same with analogue and digital dash displays - a glance at the instruments to see all needles at expected positions can be done in less than a second and speedo needle in peripheral vision means 30, 60 and 70mph limits can easily be maintained. I find it more difficult to do that with digital displays. Is this a generational thing?

Interesting point. Not something I'd ever given masses of thought. Wear both analogue and digital watches quite regularly and find both easy enough to read.
