I used a Keychron K8 for a while. I also grew up using the classic IBM keyboards and wanted to get back to those days. Also I like using a typewriter, so it seemed a good idea...

Before I joined this place (insert "when life was so simple" reverie) I owned one of those titanium Citizen diver's watches as my do everything timepiece. As it was my only timepiece.
I look back...
I am still bowled over by my Yamaha APXT2. I sat in the shop and played loads, but this one just sounded better (and I wanted to prefer the similar-sized Martin but it wasn't quite as good to my...

Thanks yes I think Flourinert is one I saw mentioned too, though I am not sure it is available in Japan. According to one of the linked posts, Sinn used to use silicon oil but changed to flourinert...
That's a very useful post. The same movement as mine too. So it must be possible. Reading it carefully, I think the main difference between how he approached it and my own efforts, is that he appears...
Oil viscosity seems the most likely culprit. For a digital it makes no difference. Or an analogue without a seconds hand, I suspect: the hour and minute hands moving so slowly so as not to meet much...
That's a great thread! Although I think that one "only" went to just under 1000m. The G's in the original post go properly deep :rugby:
Encouraged by the Casio G shock results I thought I'd have a go at hydro-modding myself.
In the sonorous words of farming savant and motoring philosopher Mr J Clarkson, how hard could it be?

You may have seen Casio's real-world depth test of their cheapest G-Shock, the DW-5600:

Quite impressive stuff.

I believe you. I have owned quite a few variants of these movements and it is a bit of an adventure if you ever have to reset the calendar. But it's a rare event, and unless the outside of the case...
It will get lost in the Friday thread, so for those possibly interested...

Although the battery lasts 8 years and the perpetual calendar is not affected by battery changes, it is possible to reset it or change it.

"Rotary Aquaplunge" sounds like a Viz advert for a loo brush contraption though
I am expecting this one to sail through the month change tonight...

Chapeau!
Who knew the sampling of TZ Friday data could provide such insights? And in statistics, the larger the sample size, the more reliable the averages. The N’s justify the means.

It's steel this one, but has been caressed by IWC with the correct equipment and their magical skills.
Before the service, it had fallen onto a road and had been playing in traffic. The glass was...
