Just bought a new in box vintage Armitron
Still has plastic film over the speaker.
Untested, so hoping a battery does the trick. I think it’s kinda cool.

Reminds me of my Dad as all he ever wore were digital watches. Meanwhile in 80’s as a teen I saved and bought a Citizen analog.

NOTHING like great watch memories!.
I have purchased and at times overpaid, for wristwatches because they invoke memories of my Father, former Girlfriends (when we were kids) or friends.
It's one of those fields where collectors actually get to relive the past, from the sound of a timepiece, the face color or EVEN the feel of a certain watch.
