Perhaps that is what she really wanted, I wondered why she still wanted to go out for dinner too.

I had one of these bought for my birthday when I was about 11.
34 years later I still wear it for 'best'.

I have:
an old seiko (??I think) belonging to my dad, (who died mid 80s, so it's older than that...think he'd had it 12 yrs or so before he popped his clocks...might be wrong). The face/hands needed mending several times, and the last time it broke, the bloke in the jeweller's said it was kinf of beyond meaningful fixing!! Still keep it though, sentimentality and all that.
A £5 Lidl jobby, which I wear all the time, in water, out of water, it's brill!!!!
A £40 jobby off Amazon that Mrs F got me on my 50th birthday... it's nice and shiny, so I keep it for 'best'.

Me too. Mine too. Mine too - from time to time I give it a sentimental shake, in the hope that it will start going again! Wonder if it's the same style?
I have some rare Russian tank commanders watches, but cannot wear them as I ain't got a tank. (When I get one, I also have a tiger which will fit nicely
)In my 'serious past' I had a Tissot T Touch Titanium, which was rather nice and a couple of Festina (one was cyclist something or other with a blue face to match my face and bike. the other white with a leather strap). As they were associated with my ex - I left them behind.
(Nice, handy cycling watch that T Touch though...)

It's probably a 7s26 movement,or something similarly popular. It's got sentimental value, throw a few quid at it, either get the movement alone or a donor watch (which will provide a new handset) via Ebay, say £20 tops, get a "bloke on a stall" to fit it, maybe £10, job done.

That would be 'daddicide!'. On second thoughts...I had a couple of Tokyo Flash ones too ('Jive Turkey' was one name) - lots of limited-edition LED goodness. Son has those now...(I hope)
