·I've caught the Zodiac bug. Today I went with the Aerospace Jet and didn't mix up reading the 24 hours dial once.

·The soon to be only un-tarifed watch that you will be able to get in the USA.
Had to change the battery on it this week after about 6 years in my ownership and few more in someone else custody, a big 2016 lithium cell.
Twas difficult getting the cashback off, much moreso that most snap backs but you must remember it's rated for 100 Bar. As difficult as it was to get off it was impossible to get back on even with my brutishly strong thumbs so I gave up and got my watch maker to press it back on for fear of me making a mess of it using a vise.
As chronographs go I would choose one of these over a Casio or similar priced watches in a heartbeat, accurate (very) and stunningly easy to use and read plus jump hour date setting for time zone changing and date correction which is a nice touch in a field watch like this, not to mention the easily read Timex Indiglo system.
I am sure Timex cut a lot of finishing corners to get this to where it is but ya know I am probably to much of a peasant to be offended by any thing I have seen in the aesthetics of this watch, it does all it's claimed function's in style and looks superb to boot too.
