Casio prw-3500t. Solar, atomic, and all the fun pro-trec stuff. I've had several and this one is my favorite mix of office life and trail goodness.
You have any G-Shocks @Daverous? —— Family used a lot of my knives on Christmas morning, opening presents. (Of course I saved my Utilitac for myself. ) Mom got the Gerber and sister got the Pioneer - lucky them.
Ah! Nice Christmas present! Saw the video when they released it, and my first thought was, "Whoa... Cold Steel makes a crossbow now?"

While walking the dog last night, I had a very random thought: in this year of Covid-shyteshow, I have yet to hear about any 300/400/500 million mega lotto jackpots at unlike any other prior years! I mused about this this to my dog at first but she just wagged her tail!
Both the MegaMillions and Powerball lotteries are at $360-$370 million right now. Apparently, Covid-19 and the shutdowns resulted in enough of a decline in ticket purchases that the starting prize for both was lowered from $40 million to $20 million.
Ah the lottery, otherwise known as the stupid tax I'm about to go buy a ticket right now, thanks for the heads up
The term is 'mathematically challenged' I can understand the ones spending a couple dollars on the infinitesimal chance of a huge windfall, it's the one who don't know understand statistics and asymptotes and spend $100 - $200 on tickets because the lotto is at $XXX million that get me (especially the kind of folks who have trouble paying bills, and are hoping that blowing $xxx on lottery tickets will solve all their problems).
Back on 12/20 when all y'all were discussing how accurate your watches are, or aren't, I set mine to the second against the clock on time.gov. It is about a 18 yr-old Omega Seamaster. Apart from being on it's 3rd battery (replaced in August), it has never been serviced. Today, 9 or 10 days later it is exactly to the second, in synch with the time.gov clock. I'll keep track for a month or so. Maybe I got really lucky with this one?
I didn’t know that Omega made a Seamaster that wasn’t an automatic, would you mind posting a pic of that one so I could drool over it a bit.
