<br>Take phone out of pocket<br>Unlock<br>Put in pas-code<br>Notice you have a text<br>Check text<br>Check email<br>Look at cool link to moog sub phatty<br>Make comment: "moog rulez 4 3v3r!!!"<br>Check Facebook<br>

That's not the fault of not having a watch, but of your phone having too many functions. :) Although I agree that looking at pictures of cats is one of the more useful innovations in mobile technology of the last decade or two. ;)<br>
<br>Currently I'm using this watch again:<br><a href="http://www.tokyoflash.com/en/watch_museum/s-mode/oberon/" target="_blank">http://www.tokyoflash.com/en/watch_museum/s-mode/oberon/</a><br><br>(And there's another Bar'ian that has this watch if I'm not mistaken.)<br>
<br>It is, actually, far simpler to look at your phone than trying to decipher this watch. But you have so many clocks these days, whether on your phone, your tablet, your computer or on the wall, that watches have become superfluous, and that the most important reason to get on is to make a statement.<font color="#888888"><span style="color:#888888"><br>
