These watches are more 90s than a side ponytail!
I'm continually amazed everytime I stumble across a watch from Casio that was incredibly ahead of its time. Thanks for sharing these!
As a long time PNW resident and former Portlander, I like the idea of Vero and I'd love to support them. Of course I want a Northwest watch! Dimensions are right, they have quartz offerings... But I haven't been able to get down with any of their models so far. They make some very strange design choices that seem to be at odds with usability. ๐ค
Still, I'm keeping an eye on them in the future. Making original watch designs and trying to source domestically in the US is a tall order and any micro that's tried it has definitely had some growing pains.
Great write up! I really enjoy seeing the love for micros and the people behind the brand. I've seen enough love for Vero that I'm really just waiting for the right Vero for me to cop one!
Nice find!
LED watches have a different relationship to time, for sure. They don't continually offer it, you have to actually ask for it. Because of this and needing two hands to operate, I feel they present time in a very leisurely, relaxed way. It's a time piece for when you're not pressed for time.
I have a steel LED and a gold-tone one. In steel, it feels like such a casual, kicking around on the weekend kind of watch. In gold tone, I think it makes the best possible case for a digital dress watch. It fully embodies that sense of losing track of time.
Why would they take their website down for an update? That's what development servers are for. Unless Rolex has a totally inept webdev team, this is yet another hype gimmick. ๐ง
