Can’t wait to see your review! I am afraid that I may break down for a Ball one of these days, so I am keenly interested in everyone’s opinions.

Timex DataLink 150, the metal model. Snagged for the minimum bid, so <$6 and a little less with eBucks.

Yes I have 2 DataLinks, but I have a hardware/software tech friend who loves odd technology. Basically he is a smarter version of me. Definitely a kindred spirit. I figure he might be able to help figure out the software side of things.

Not sure if he will get this one or the first DataLink I found, but for $6 I couldn’t not get it... right?

Please share some photos when this comes in! I’m intrigued to see it on wrist and in person.

I got a BOGO (targeted) email from Barton, so I thought I'd splurge on a couple of straps. Who doesn't need more straps, and it's not a watch, so that's allowed. I really like quick release straps, and I've looked at their toffee colored one before. The weathered brown looks an interesting one for free.

I've got the toffee brown on my presage. They're quite comfy and fit perfectly with Seiko clasps

Casio AMW330B-1AV incoming. I started out looking for a AMW320 on ebay but ended up finding a decent deal on a lightly used 330 instead for about 25 beans. It'll be on the large side for me. But it's one of those watches that I've seen for years and have never owned.

Also saw this little clock going for a great price and thought "why not?" So picked up one for me and another as a gift. Should be a fun little knockaround piece for travel and what-not.
