This is your occasional reminder that until 1993 the existence of Post Office Tower in London was an official state secret

Despite it being 177 metres tall, in central London, and having both a revolving restaurant and a gift shop

Well this can only end well

smol hedgie compared with BIG HEDGIE

hedgie had a good investigate of the camera

Came across one of these in a shop on clearance and had to pick it up

It is by far the worst watch in my collection

The backlight is somehow worse than on the F91-W, when it's on the entire display dims so you still can't see the time

The alarm doesn't work, and not only doesn't work when it's meant to go off, it crashes the watch completely and resets the current time to midnight

It's terrible. I love it

smol hedgie!

This is praxis

(not my picture, found in bristol)

I want an FV721 Fox to drive around in

It's like a little tiny mini tank!

It's so cute!

Awwww yeaaaah

NEW CASIO RETRO WATCHES!

Very obviously based on the F-91W, but somehow look even more retro and awesome

If you're looking at Daniel Wellington or MVMT watches and thinking "oh, could get one of those", don't.

They're overpriced shite

Instead, here are some other options in a similar style but are much better:

Casio LTP-E140: costs about £50 so much cheaper, good reliable watch

Timex Fairfield: £90, very nice looking, can read it in the dark

Tissot Everytime Swissmatic: £310, so more expensive but you get a swiss mechanical movement instead of a basic quartz

hedgie do a scratch

Much like The Pentagon is named after the shape of the building, GCHQ Cheltenham is known as "The Doughnut"

smol hedgie!
