Impulse-buy...

Post by Hans »

A few days ago I came across a diver that I liked so much, that I ordered it today! It's very much a tool-watch with lots of technical oriented details, like:

- 500m water-resistance
- special oil used for lubrication so it will operate between -45 - +80 degrees Celcius
- filled with inert Argon-gas
- can handle magnetic fields up to 80,000 A/m

Hopefully it will arrive before or on my birthday. Anybody who knows which watch I'm talking about?

A very impressive specification, but won't your arm hurt when you test the extremes?
Let us hope all politicians are masochists, that they may truly enjoy our fondest wishes...
