Sure, they're cheap; but years ago when I went looking for a new wrist watch I found that the new fad - - - - DIGITAL - - - - had taken over the market and it was impossible to find a "plain old wrist watch with a couple of hands on it."

Now that I've eventually "seen the light" and need a new one (having worn out about three in the intervening 20 years time) I find that the new craze is something obscenely called - - - ANALOG - - - and it's all but impossible to find a digital one.

Either way (I can read either kind, I suppose) the galloping obesity of the juvenile crowd that determines what's in the market means that the only choices are 3-pound, 3.5 inch diameter, half-inch thick, 47-function, "stylish on my thigh" monsters that I'd sprain an elbow trying to wear on my wrist.

But they are fairly cheap.
