    Anyone else get one? They were sold in early to mid 90s. I bought a Blazers watch so I could say I wore my heart on my wrist. I've replaced the strap several times, the crystal when it cracked, replaced battery, had it repaired when needed, but last week I dropped it on the hardwood floor and alas, it is now dead. I doubt these cheap watches were meant to last 20-odd years, but somehow it did, rather astonishing since I am the original ham-handed (I have yet to have a Thanksgiving dinner without losing a wineglass).

    RIP watch.

    Seriously, I don't remember that promotion and would love to see a photo of what that watch looks like.

    Boy, crandc, I'd be worried: everything in your life seems to be falling apart recently.


    I blame Trump.

    I haven't tossed it yet so I will take a pic with cracked crystal and broken strap...

    Rasta, you are right. And Cassidy and Sundance not well; their condition, as it happens, is degenerative. They will probably not live out the year. I have to groom them now.

    Yeah. I remember those. They were pretty popular around the mid-nities. Before Ebay really took off you could find them in the odd local boutique (broken of course.) Wish I'd have picked one up when If had the chance.

    That looks like it says "Lardo Time".
    Must have been the Felton Edition.
