expensive and classy is a tall order for a digital watch
Just for grins, I looked up expensive digital watches since I prefer digital over analog. There were two things that immediately stuck out.
First, with little exception, everything was either too big or too goofy.
Second, it turns out I already own the second classiest digital timepiece, and it's not expensive at all.
Under a week, actually. The doomsday date official support ends for Windows 10 is 14-Oct-2025.
Even though I have Windows 11 installed on my other computer, I still have an SSD that I kept with a full install of Win10 on it.
Why?
I think this is either due to either my upbringing, being middle aged, being set in my ways, having a general annoyance with useless modern "features", or a combination of all of that.
I drive a car that's over 15 years old that has a manual transmission. My main computer is over a decade old and runs Linux. I wear basic LCD panel digital watches (I'm favoring the WS1600H as of late). I use a Garmin for navigation and not my phone. I shave with a safety razor.
Is there anything I use that's current?
For a good long time, I used GPS navigation with no traffic reporting whatsoever. Something like 13 or 14 years. It was in the late 2010s that I started using it due to a goof.
At that time, that older Garmins started getting cheap. What was hundreds of dollars when new could now be had for under $30, so I started collecting them. One of the used Garmin nuvis that I bought came with a GTM60 cable, which is a highfalutin charge cord with traffic antenna built-in. I got a chuckle when I saw it, because the cord was (and still is) actually worth significantly more than the screen itself. The seller simply didn't know how valuable that cord was.
After updating the nuvi, I got it all set up, plugged in the GTM60 in the car and took it out on the road.
I had to go get some service done to my car, and a standard thing I do before I go to the shop is take out my newer Garmin navigator and purposely use an older one before going there.
There are three reasons I do this.
First is the whole "not responsible for what happens to items in car" thing that every garage states in their documentation. That's a not-so subtle way of saying, "We can and we will steal stuff out of your car if we think we can get away with it."
Second, none of my favorites are saved on the older one I use. If anybody that gets in my car goes snooping around my Garmin, there's nothing there to find.
