At least the date is in a sensible place and matches nicely with the marker at 9 o'clock

You're right it has the date and it is in the right place. But better? Mine is cleaner and the original, so there ;p

Two watches on the docket tomorrow as I am doing another hike in the White Mountains of New Hamshire.

For the drive up and back, I'll be wearing something suitably "outdoorsy woodsman" - a swiss made quartz LLBean Vintage Field Watch:



Then, for the hike up a small mountain, I'll switch to a Garmin GPS/heart rate monitor fitness watch:


I'll set it to display heart rate, time, distance, and elevation on the hike. When i get home, it'll upload the GPS track to the computer where it can be viewed in Google Earth like this one from last week's hike:

Back to something a little more conventional!
