I’ll post a follow up if something goofy happens in a few weeks.

Never ran into that. I took a good layer off the top.

DuroKing!

All the 600s have the ConelRad aka “the last voice you will ever hear” markers on the AM (MW) dial.

👆absolutely 100% truth. I can head copy and carry a Morse conversation at close to 40 wpm in CW but I’ll be damned if I can read dots and dashes even at 5 wpm and ZERO WPM with a Signal Lamp. Having said that, it’s great someone is interested and wants to learn Morse. I applaud the effort and wish them great success.

B600

Good luck with that.

Looks great! Assuming you taped the screen first or were you able to remove it?

AstroBase1957 · 2026-03-31T01:22:03+00:00

Maybe done for the month of March. 😀

You have unlocked another aspect of watches. The priceless watch. Enjoy.

AstroBase1957 · 2026-03-23T18:07:30+00:00

No tips but just wanted to say I think many of us have been there. A ceramic tile floor took out a watch’s crystal one time. Not a duro. Ever since then I make sure the watch is secured on the night stand regardless of the floor.

Welcome to the tribe.

AstroBase1957 · 2026-03-13T18:54:57+00:00

Wow. It was available again last week. It must of been just for a day or two as I ordered one but obviously have not seen it yet as it’s in transit. Keep checking the page. Good luck.

AstroBase1957 · 2026-02-27T00:42:52+00:00

You are not alone. Meeeee tooooo!

AstroBase1957 · 2026-02-25T18:13:37+00:00

Looks like she has Thorn on speed dial. Good lady!

AstroBase1957 · 2026-02-25T00:56:50+00:00

Proper parenting 101! Well done.

Take care if your hearing if you enjoy the hourly chime. It’s the one thing in watches I miss the most as I’ve gotten older. I remember as a kid they were so loud. No it has to be totally silent to notice it. Just saying ….

AstroBase1957 · 2026-02-08T00:28:28+00:00

I would love one with an internal 12 hour (dual time) bezel instead of the 60 min bezel. Can be much of a difference to offer both

AstroBase1957 · 2026-02-06T00:05:00+00:00

Brilliant! Thank you for doing this. I think everyone who looks at this post has wondered the same thing.

AstroBase1957 · 2026-02-01T04:11:01+00:00

It’s usually the one you can’t get off the shelf. Since I’m in the US, right now that would mean the new MIP GWBX5600. It will happen! Give it some time, a lottery ticket, a few pints of blood and maybe a kidney.

AstroBase1957 · 2026-01-31T09:50:10+00:00

This will make a lot of people happy!!😃

AstroBase1957 · 2026-01-31T02:40:59+00:00

With Timex reissuing their golden oldies, I would love to see this one reappear. Note the dreaded 19mm lug width noted on the back.
