was not into watches until past 4 years... then the rest they said is history...

during ciku days, really envious of mates wearing g shocks (that is cool watch during the late 80s), plastic pencil box which have all-in-one function, pallas shoes, etc. My parents cant really afford above all, I have to make to do what i get...

owned quartz ie casio, timex (this was one more expensive one) and mickey mouse..if i remember correctly. Sadly all have been destroyed out of curosity by dismantling them at age of 12. :HammerHead:

But...still keeping one that still accompany me until today...a seiko quartz to whom i get as a gift for good score in SRP...hmm dat seems looooong time ago. :thumbsup:

Totally agree, so walking back to memory lane make me now wanted to buy back my first Casio Melody watch, the watch come with 2 melody, press the button once and it will play the melody, and will show the music note on the watch upper screen. Anyone got any idea where to find this watch now???  :Praying:
