Yeah. Suddenly, it’s 1979 again.
I remember sitting in a college class in 1979 playing with my boffo digital watch that did everything under the sun. It even had a calculator function.
Buttons everywhere.
Two years later, they were old news and looked so yesterday.
I predict the same fate, 35 years later, for the iWatch (sounds kinda kinky) that does everything under the sun.
I got at least 6 or 7 perfectly good watches but find I only wear the last one bought, which happens to be a Casio Sport Pathfinder 3043. Love it and don’t really plan to buy another watch, though the apple one does sound cool, starting at $349 it’s a little too pricey for me. That’s 3 times the highest price I’ve ever paid for a watch.
I have one of the cheaper Garmins. It’s a watch ,HR monitor , maps bike rides hikes or runs for up loading and looking at the data , plus shows pace of the current mile. I phones can do it some of that too, but the watch is convenient. Also a TImex Ironman which is cheap and got good reviews on Amazon. Not a watch, but Gym boss timer is pretty good for a lot of preset on off intervals with preset times and beeper warnings, plus stop watch and some other stuff with memory…good if you need a nice wrist timer for $20.
