Haha small world!

It reminds me of the large old style G shock watches. I opted for a casio "pathfinder" model instead when I found those didn't fit which wasn't shock proof but smaller and had a tide graph and a compass direction on it. Funny how you can just get all that these days by loading a few apps.

Yes, exactly! I had been worried about the size myself, which is why I hesitated on the deal from Warehouse Stationery (you snooze, you lose I guess!) but having found a local retailer with some in store yesterday I managed to get up close and personal with one and I like it even more now!!! Kicking myself for not just buying one on Friday!!

If its a deal that you can always sell for more if you dont like then you should never hesitate to buy it.

I really should start getting up earlier so I dont miss things like that.

macuser: Mine hasn't shipped yet which is a bit worrying. Hopefully they didn't over subscribe the sales, I'd really like to have a play with it. Ive been reading about some cool 22mm metal bands from Amazon that make the watch that much nicer


Which ones your looking at?

Is this to make everyone aware there is an owners forum now? I will post there when I get a chance to shake down my new watch, which incidentally arrived by courier at breakfast time this morning :-D

Got mine - happy days. Downloaded the free 'Scuba' watch face - very pretty. Upgraded to v5 wear and just finding my way around it. The watch itself is very light and definitely not too big. I doubt anyone will even notice I have a different watch to my old Tissot Touch (about the same size).

Now to figure out how to integrate with task and voice commands...

Warehouse Stationery have chosen to break their contact and not supply the item as agreed when they took my money.

Not impressed.

Yeah 3 guys here at work missed out.  It's a bit dodgy that Warehouse Stationery put "limited to 100 units" later on in the day.
