olddude: "I started carrying a size 18 hamilton 21 Jeweled railroad pocket watch. I can see the damn thing without reading glasses."
Exactly the reason I asked for (and received) a Seiko Solar military style watch for Xmas. It has characters almost as big as my Waltham Vanguard which I only carry when I wear a suit, about twice a decade. Between the Seiko and my lovely Citizen's Eco-Drive my outdoor and indoor chronometer needs are met.
Not trying to hijack your thread, Dan, just wanted to say a few words on behalf of solar aficionados and the mothers in Nashville.
