Haunted timex electric...

[digibloke]

I know this isn't a digi-watch matter but I've been digging around for spares for an old timex electric watch I've been working on and came across this...

A Timex that has been on the wrist of a dead man for one whole year

im not surprised it has no bids

This could reopen all those arguments about wether or not an electric watch has a "soul" like manual/automatics are supposed to......

"It wasn't ticking like the commerical said that it would."

That's just mean.

The poor guy is probably rolling in his grave.

Apparently the old gentleman is haunting the seller. The ad says he hears things going bump in the night around his house since he got them lol.

I wonder if he'll relist them lol

what kind of Timex Electric parts do you need. I have a box of those.

[digibloke]

Thanks v' much for the offer Azimuth but I already bought a beat up deado for parts and got my watch working again.

It was quite refreshing to fix a "tick-tock" for a change

"fragile band" - well for being at a dead body like one year the band is still in quite reasonable condition...

I recommend getting this if you're a hobby ghostbuster.
