Not sure what you mean by "touch the indicator marks"? Do they really touch them or just move over them? How can you tell before holding the watch in hand? From pictures?

I mean visually 'touch' them. On many (most?) watches, you can't always tell exactly which second and minute the hands are pointing to.

Now you'll know exactly how late you are for anything…

Damn, for the rest of the day I'm going to be haunted with the knowledge there's a watch just a few miles away that precisely steps on the hash marks. Not fraction of a mm before nor after.

imprecise tick, imprecise tick, imprecise tick, imprecise tick, imprecise tick, imprecise tick ...

:-)
Actually I'm kinda glad I'm not the only one who notices weird imperfect things like that. :-)

Did your previous watches have a problem with accuracy?

Don't get me wrong, the coolness factor is seductive. I am already so addicted to buying watches, I had to view the watch while biting my fingers, hoping I wouldn't be compelled to immediately buy one.

Please tell me it's just the coolenss factor, I don't want to start worrying that all my watches are lying to me, when they tell me what time it is!

It is a good looking watch no doubt. It may be thicker than I might want. It is 12mm thick.

New watches that are NOT ipod nanos? The horror. Tongue
