Now where in HELL can I buy a nice, discreet Casio watch with NO bold
and colorful printing smeared all over it? I like Casio's countdown
timers and alarms far better than Timex.

I like casio too, last one lasted over 25 years, including a trip
through a roof and a fall of 18 feet, with me attached, into hard-core
with little more than a scratch on the glass and a dent in the rim (I
was knocked out, broke my sturnum, and the damage to my left knee still
causes problems, the inch thick 8x4 sheet of ply that followed me
through missed!). My Christmas present Timex lasted 7 weeks before the
winder (adjuster) spindle broke....
