I find it very surprising that most teenagers now know how to operate the computer better than a simple mechanical contraption.. it's sort of like a generation gap methinks.. quartz watches, 'puters and cellphones
and no Joshua, I am not talking about you I can understand your excitement.
I handled my dad's automatic chrono when I was 10, and the first word that pop out of my mouth was, "Dad, we should get batteries for this watch.." ..simply because I observed the large second hand was not moving..
sigh.. I guess I do belong to the quartz generation after all...
..but I'm goin' RETRO-Matic man yeah
