i have a citizen with a slide rule
so i can;t make fun
but i never used it
even though i learned in college back in the day
it does not have a ‘cursor’ which makes many calculations impossible
Thanks! Stunning design. Really speaks to me. Did you buy it direct from Helm or via another channel? On the site it looks to me like they’re produced in very small batches, and gauged by waiting list requests.
Marathon GSAR antrachite
Have been a fan of Marathon watch.
Bought the first Marathon SAR back in 2004, when they were about US$500 or so, but sold it a few years later.
Really regretted that decision
It's $50 + $5 shipping, but the seller accepts offers.
If this watch had a negative display, I would get it for myself.
I keep on looking for a GD-350 in great condition with a negative display, but they're rare and usually more expensive than the ones with a regular display.
I have never had any need or desire for a watch, but these Welder brand watch faces give me a serious Fallout Pip-Boy vibe. Especially using the leather strap.
Edit: Fun little detail I just noticed as well. The watches say “Since 2075”.
In the Fallout universe, the nuclear war that ends the world happens on October 23, 2077.
They fit the lore of tha Fallout universe!
Do you actually prefer negative LCDs? I’ve only ever met people who had the opposite preference, myself included. I’ve actually modified my daily Protrek as it originally came with inverted LCD that was much harder to read in less than perfect lighting conditions.
