^ Nice. I have my mom's watch that is similar to yours; it needs restoration and I will get around to it for sentimental reasons, but I'll never wear it. The dial is just too small.

Casio DW-1000 for Monday. Bought it new in 1983: it was Casio's first 200M watch, and a concept testing/precursor model for the upcoming G-Shock line. It gets 7+ years per battery, which was pretty good for 1983!
Enjoy your week!

Thanks for your support Sherry. My watch is very humble but very loved as it was a gift from my children about 6 or 7 years ago. It is only recently I have found the world of watches so definitely hope to upgrade and collect but this will always be my favorite as it was from my children. I felt it may have been a little out of place in this site but have found the courage to post it.
Thanks again,
Debbie

Think the earth WN-2
time on the watch read 1543hrs(3.43pm)
hour hand turns anti-clockwise, minute hand turns clockwise, the globe makes 1 revolution every 24hr

Sentimental value is the greatest value a watch can have! I have a pair of Seiko quartz watches, gifts from my mother who passed on when I was only 20. Those watches will always be more precious than any others I possess.
Today's watch, a Stowa Antea KS:
Absolutely adore the watch, but the strap is a bit of a disappointment because it's fraying from contact with my laptop desk. My other leather straps don't have this problem! It's one of the last red-brown leather straps that Stowa shipped, I'm assuming, as it was no longer offered as an option within a couple weeks of my placing the order. Might be a connection...
Incidentally, this watch is perfect for a sunny day because the dial and hands shift colors as the light hits from different angles. I like this photo because the lighting shows you the watch in two different "moods"!
