A while back, while waiting for a scheduled office meeting room to clear out, a friend of mine says, "They've gone over their scheduled time. It's 10:05 already."

Another manager that was waiting in the hall for the meeting then said, "No they haven't. It's exactly 10 am."

My friend says, "That's a really nice watch you have there. Is it one of those new Casios?"

Other manager says, "Yes it is. My wife bought it for me."

My friend says, "Tell her to take it back because my Rolex says that it's five minutes slow."

... true story

And the Casios are some tough watches. I have two:

A model I bought maybe 20 years ago (maybe more)

Casios can be very collectible too.

I'd trust a Casio over a Rolex any day.

Very nice! I'm wanting a Orange Monster pretty bad right now, but OGB has put the stop on any more watches for a while. laugh

I only have two, and they should last me the rest of my life, considering one is already 30 years and the other 60.

Exactly LOL I just talked to a friend who works for a jewlery store to see if she can order me the orange monster.

Haha, NEITHER one is gold. besides I got them at a discount. Paid a grand for the Submariner and fifty bucks for the other. And YES, they are both real.
