Purchased this timepiece in 1994. Despite the fact that they appear like they've been ran over by a tank at this point, they are nevertheless able to accurately maintain time. There is only a single spare battery in this watch, despite the fact that not a single button functions, the cover has peeled off and is scratched, and I can't remember the last time I was able to use the backlight. In the not-too-distant future, I plan to replace them with some G-Shock watches, and I'm hoping they're of Japanese quality.
