Thanks Baco. This watch does "speak to me". Few do. I spent many years testing and repairing pc boards for IBM. Glad I waited a while and found it on sale at 40% off on GShock USA. This is all digital and solar...check. Titan makes it all the nicer.

40% off he from the manufacture it’s a super nice deal! With your IBM history, I can see why it speaks to you.
Not sure if this was your experience with IBM or not, but my late mother was a real estate agent for decades and she said she always loved it when she got a referral from IBM because the joke was it stood for I Be Moving! She’d sell them a house and then 3-5 years later they’d get transfer for a promotion and then sell the house a second time!

Congratulations, Bernie! As you know, I have an appreciation for Casio watches, G-Shock's especially.
This is a nice piece with a theme that is meaningful to you. Solar is the way to go for these, even with minimal light they seem to stay full from my experience with all 3 of my solar Casio's.

Bracelet large. Ordered Esslinger Watch Band Tool, Multi Purpose Band Adjustment instead of winging it.

This is a good one! I need one like this, for sure. I've got a couple off Amazon that did the job for various pin and tube bracelets, especially Citizen watches purchased as gifts.
Although I don't plan on buying more watches (Ha!), sometimes adjustments are needed I find as these pins at times can start to come out.

Congratulations! I’m a big fan, and I miss having a cool model.
They had one I really liked but it was 1500 and I just couldn’t do it as it would get very little time. It sold out fast so that made my decision easier lol.

Bracelet large. Ordered Esslinger Watch Band Tool, Multi Purpose Band Adjustment instead of winging it. Buy once, cry once. I waited too long to get my Horofix tweezers… never more. Buy the best tools you can afford, you’ll never be sorry.
