What time is it? Watches and horology

I'm glad they exist.

To add a couple hundreds thousand to the cost for the lols?

Nah, because they’re doing something different and interesting on their own terms. It’s not another lazy heritage brand. There’s a load of novel stuff they’ve come up with - some of it is supremely tasteless but at least they’ve got ideas and some genuinely interesting watchmaking going on.

supremely tasteless

A punter brought this into the casino a while back…

Probably the most refined one I've seen. 😎

That one is the epitome, yeah. As sported by Drake.

See Lando got mugged for his Mille @ Wembley.

1 of 1. Can't see that going on the bay...

Can you adjust the back light timer?

Thats my issue with gshock, so short, it's off before I can see

I set mine to 3 seconds, that should do to tell the time right?

Richard Mille r the post millennial 'Animal Watch' of the elite.

No, I find when cycling it was never enough. I gave up and just used my etrex, but i don't like to see the time, all the time.

How did you set?

First time wearing this for probably 6 months.. scratch on the acrylic which polywatch doesn’t seem to be able to tackle. What’s my next step?

I've got a GA 2000, not sure if this applies to all models but here goes:

To change the illumination duration

1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down A until the flashing SET indicator disappears from the display and the currently selected city code appears on the display.

2. Press C ten times to display the illumination duration setting screen.

3. Press D or B to toggle the illumination duration between three seconds(3 displayed) and 1.5 seconds (1 displayed).

4. Press A to exit the setting mode.

ah yeah think not, I've DW-5600BB-1ER, will try

Looks like you can only switch it on or off, no option to select the duration.

Seamaster back from the service centre. It took 7weeks and they changed all gaskets, the crown and escapement valve, battery and bezel (which was surprisingly included in the service cost)

It’s like a new watch.

I had forgotten how strong the Lum is on it!

On the GBX-100's 3482 module you have two options, 1.5 sec or 3 sec.

My B5600 you change it in the app, you have a choice of 2 or 4 seconds

Okay thanks all, seems you can do on some, interesting.

Nah, it's totally different on the GBX-100 module, it has an actual menu system.

Ah yes, completely different indeed! Equally complicated though to remember. :D

One (three) for the pokémaniacs out there

It's actually great, because you can read all the options! Where I fail is remembering the different mode screens and how to go between them - every now and then I end up starting an "activity" by mistake.
