Welcome. I know what you mean by starting with budget watches, not being able to pass up a watch and save for a more expensive, more desirable watch. I did the Casio, Timex and lower in seikos for a while. Actually have managed to get a couple of Hamiltons, an ORIS etc... Being more expensive, they were supposed to be more fun and more satisfying. Well, they sit and collect a lot of dust. I do like wearing them from time to time but for the most part my Casios and a couple of Timex get the most time and I have a lot more fun with them. Everybody is different. One of these days I'm going to sell off most of the expensive ones except one or two for special occasions.

Casio has really improved their negative displays. They used to be pretty bad, even on the Gs. Nice shot.

I believe my first watch in the mid-70s was a Timex mechanical. I was a kid so I didn't realize that it needed to be taken care of or how to take care of it. In the late '70s for Christmas I got an armitron digital. I had that for several years and I don't ever recall having to change the battery. I suppose if I hadn't lost it, I might still have it today and wear it. I think that, more than the timex, is what sparked my interest.

Looks good. I think I like the way the pushers stick out.

Just a screenshot from an Alan Parsons Project music video. Pretty sure it's a Casio.
