Another Vice, came out about when the Power Pro did

Post by nuhobby »

Yeap,

When the Power Pro came out, I jumped on it, and I had my new state-of-the-art unit by Labor Day 2010.

It seems like about the same time, Bulova had announced the new Precisionist watch line (+/- 10 seconds per year accuracy). I wanted one a long time but I forced myself to be patient.

The wait has ended!

This +10 LOL

I am a watch horse, always have been, but I have come to re-love the mechanical watches (although I have and use a solar waveceptor watch to make sure my mechanicals are accurate LOL). My wife gave me a Waltham (swiss) Chronograph in the early seventies and still have it. Needs an overhaul now, but it is still my favorite.

Nice watch! :cool:

Took my watch off the day I retired! I will admit I do look at my cell phone for the time usually for a doctor appointment. Or when local restaurants stop serving breakfast. I love breakfast!

Buying something that accurate is really a dumb move. Now you will never have an excuse for being late - ever. :)
