Hey guys!

 

This is a great watch I bought from lilweazel as a M2M deal.

I'd hardly call it a quartz. More like a motorized space-ship watch. This thing is packed with tech and awesome features!

 

Powered by the sun, it has atomic timekeeping and automatic adjustment via radio. Adjusting time-zones is extremely satisfying, as you select your zone and the minute/hour hands simply "float" to their new zone. I'll have to post a video of this later!

Enjoy the pics - Taken at arrival after a short wash :)

After I got into reps, I swore I'd never get another quartz.

 

I'd like to rephrase myself, and say i'll never get a cheapie quartz - Because this is a damn fine movement!

Like mechanical watches, the "power reserve" is a real issue.

At least I dont need a winder!

I love those atomic time/radio set watches. If I didn't have WAY too many watches, I'd probably wear mine more often, but between the solar power and radio set, its super easy to throw it on and head out the door.

Congrats- I also have a Citizen Skyhawk, and it's the most complicated watch I've seen. I wish you could manually set it but it doesn't work that way.

 

It's more than 1 minute fast and I could never manage to put it right. Also, Daylight Savings is a bitch, but I usually manage to stumble through that. I need to use the

 

400 page guide manual to do so. It looks cool - have to admit and I like the bracelet.

I'll embed this video later.

 

 

I captured this video at work.

Don't mind my filthy ass fingers. I'm at work and really don't care :)

This is time-zone swapping from London time (GMT+0) to Paris time (GMT+1).

 

Crown one step out, choose the time zone with seconds hand, press crown back in and enjoy the magic.
