This is one of the best posed pictures of a watch I've ever seen

Casio F91-W on a black NATO, believe the image is from someone on uhrforum.de

@troubleMoney chips !!!! *starts picking them up and chomping on them, ruining the photoshoot*

@troubleMoney I think it would have been better if the watch was tilted a bit more to the left, so you could read it myself.
Looks ancient. Like 74ls and 555's days to me.

@gemlog this watch was first released in 1991 so you're only 20 years out on the 555s and 74Ls

@troubleMoney in 1998 I was called to repair a large signboard in a casino. I had to order up such chips to effect repairs.
Stuff is still around even.
But yeah, they are even from my early teens.
Even by 1991 through board chips and wave soldering were becoming pretty rare in favour of smt.
I'm old :-)
Now get off my lawn!
