In the right time

How deep is deep?

When I started wearing watches at a young age, everything was quite simple for me. If the words “Water Resistant” were written on the back cover, you had to be careful. On the other hand, if it said “30M”, everything was fine. Off to the beach with it and have fun. I wore those watches in the sea for years without a care in the world - for swimming, showering and bathing anyway.

An eternal irritation

Who hasn't experienced this? Travelling by plane from Japan to the USA, adjusting your world clock to the local conditions, but then the shock: the date is wrong! The reason: that darned International Date Line. A circumstance that already caused problems for Jules Verne's hero Phileas Fogg on his journey around the world in 80 days.
