They are new to a battery so I wear them and then leave them any old way so they get used to being worn then I'll check and calibrate them. I have four new watches to do at the moment but for you I'll just go and check the Kingfisher.

Dont go away!!
I can say with out fear of contraception that my Kingfishers hans are in full agreement.

Seriously they are perfect. Uncle Chris is looking after me.

There's no difference between the two so how can one sweep?

Showoff, of course you have three arms.

Seiko make the finest auto movement in the world that actually shows the movement of time.

Seikos latest auto movement, the number and name escape me at the moment, has a perfect sweep which show the progression of time. Most other autos are poise and move very quickly but the Seiko just moves.

Have you ever considered that time only ever moves in one direction?

I can prove that time moves in one direction only.

Get an egg, drop it on the ground so it breaks then try to put it back together. If time went backwards, you could re-create the egg.

As for travelling faster than the speed of light, you would have to travel out of the diamensions that we live in. This is because you mass would become infinate at the speed of light, and as you know that is impossible.
