Mission to the Moon with the gray case and black dial. It's the closest looking to the real thing. But still don't really want it.

For the price, it's shockingly good! Glows bright and lasts all night. I was expecting it to fade to black in 10 minutes like my Vostok, but nope, it keeps up with my full lume dial Zelos.

commented on Who do you watch? (Pun not intended) ·

Just One More Watch, I Like Watches, Teddy, Britt Peirce, those are probably the main ones. Used to watch Nico, but his shtick getting old.

commented on How often do you wear your tool watches for their actual purpose? Do you wear your divers to dive? Do you wear your chronograph to time stuff? etc ·

I've worn my 200m Orient diver in the 8 Inch deep inflatable pool with the kids, and just used my Seagull 1963 today to time the wait at the DMV. I also use it to time pancakes when I'm making those.

commented on Why are you still hesitating? ·
