| I like mechanical and analog watches. But my interest does spread to all kinds including digital watches. Every now and then I see a digital watch I like. If I find one I like the low price makes it easy to buy. Here are the ones I have. I especially like the 1st and 3rd ones: Some people seem caught up on G-Shock so I decided to give one a try. I'm not attracted to most models but I really like the bright green and polished black of this one which was 1/2 price for after Christmas sale at The Bay (Canadian dept. store). I bought this one because Tiger Woods endorses Nike. Ok that's not true. The case on this one reminds me of a robot like the maid on the Jetsons. Got it from my wife's liquidation business. I wanted an all white watch and saw this while doing a "white" search on ebay watches. It reminds me a of Star Wars stormtrooper. It is extremely comfortable. I think it was about $20. Bonus: analog + digital hybrid. Another ebay find. Huge and cheaply made. I like the interesting combination of movements and displays. Can display 3 times at once. I think its fun but ugly. I get compliments when I wear it. This one syncs to atomic clock. It is one is rarely worn, but used almost daily as a time reference for setting my other watches. Another good deal from The Bay for only $15. Let's see or hear about your digital watches. . Mike. | |

| I don't have a digital watch !..However, ALL of these are amazingly eye-catching ! It's great seeing the different styles of watches out there. Digital watches are one part of this hobby that must be REALLY fun, not to mention addictive ! Between the styles, colors, and prices..these watches are hard to beat ! ____________________________________ | |

| Just not into full digital watches Ani-Dig is OK, but not matter how hard I try.....just can't do it. Todays watch is sort of an ani-dig with only the date in digital, does that count? Some others I have: This Timex is a heart rate monitor as well....it's in the for sale pile, my only al digital..... ____________________________________ Later, GaryRemember we are the caretakers of mechanical art.....

| Hey, Max and 66, I had/have those Casio AMW models and even the gold and black dial versions! Such a bang for the buck...all mine were gained from the USA market where the pricing is impossible to find elsewhere in the world! even in Japan!!! haha! I still have the newest version like Max's in the collection. The degree of detail around the markers and the great lume are outstanding! wonderful tool beaters!!! Great minds think alike hahaha! Just gave this yellow dial one to my nephew as a gift... | |
