路On it's way from a German seller as I type. May not be everyone's cup of tea, but at 拢175ish for an ana-digi, solar powered, radio controlled titanium watch, I think it's a bit of a bargain 馃榾

路Handsome. I like the idea of a solar powered watch. Don鈥檛 know much about them in terms of reliability but I鈥檓 done with quartz - don鈥檛 want to buy batteries any more. Self-winders have always seemed to me cleverer and more convenient than battery powered watches. I can see solar powered falling into the same category as self-winders.

Except when the cost of one self-winder mechanical service can buy 50 batteries for several watches... But yeah, Solar is much more convenient than needing a battery every 24-42 months.
One of the reasons I traded 7 Omega and Tudor watches towards just 3 Rolex in the past year is that I have 4 fewer watches to get serviced every 5 years. That saves me over $2000 over the 5 years of time, and it buys a lot of batteries for a lifetime.

YES - I love mine on my Ti speedy bracelet.
Also, LE #129 and #138 got the LE paper (not warranty card, the paper booklet) switched at the AD, so if anyone has watch #129 but with #138 LE paper, I can arrange the trade so I get the paper (LE cerificate of auth?) for #138 and you get #129.
