don't have my camera with me but my watch is an old timex ironman (on its umpteeth band and battery now), almost all the markings for the buttons are worn off (hehe good thing I know what each button does). I've repaired part of the circuitry in there to get the beeper working again, and it beeps only once on the hour, which timex watches haven't done in years - they double-beep. I have no clue how old it is but hey it still works, why buy a new one?

ROFL there's a TV remote built into your watch.

So could you go to public places where they have a TV and start changing their channels?

Here is the best part, it doesn't only come with presets to most VCR's and TV's out there it also has a third function (it's called the Learn function) which is super sweet , if a certan device has an IR reciever and an emitter for it (the remote control usually) but it's emitter's frequency is not part of the presets that ship with the watch or is not a TV/VCR all you have to do is grab it's remote control and point it at the watch and after it recieves the signal from it, it will copy the info about that button press (frequency) on that remote you have just used and it will let you assign it to any of the buttons on the watch (except the side buttons which are function buttons) and it will be saved to that button, so whenever you go to the Learn mode and press that button you have just assigned (copied) the frequency to it, it will emitt an IR signal identical to that button press that you have copied from the remote.

I used to use that function with an IR room-light switch I used to have back home that way I don't have to get my lazy ass off the bed in case I misplaced the remote

With the Learn function the applications are un-limited and that's why I love my watch

If you claim to have a Rolex, I think you should post a pic of the interior to prove it's real. Show us either the hologram (which the newer ones have) or the inside with the pendulum.

Fake Rolexes are a dime a dozen.

LOL the only way to post a pic of the interior is to remove that back which is rather foolish for the end user to do. The hologram is a green sticker on the back that wears away rather quickly with use becoming a green sticker with the serial number.

The real watch will have NO writing on the back at all (except mine - the sea dweller actually does have writing on its back) and none have the clear back that allows one to see the movement.

Fakes are quite easy for owners of the real thing to spot. Dead giveaways are gaps on knockoff SEL bracelets.

Mine is a P serial dweller purchased new in 2001 at Miami.

Cheers!

LOL I did that in high-school and then again I also did it in college with my programming prof, but I told him at the end of the lecture that I turned of his TV he laughed his ass off , good guy.
