Trying to decide if I prefer it with a reddish-brown strap. 🤔 … maybe

Same watch as above post but with reddish brown strap

What about an even lighter gray for even more contrast? 🤔🤷

How did it get so late? I have achieved close to nothing today.

I forgot to put on a watch today after my shower. Luckily I found one of my many old watches at the office. I sort of hate this one. Its ugly and the numbering is redundant but at least I had a watch. 🤷

@ruari Btw, speaking of digital timepieces, what do you think about the new UK rail clock? https://www.networkrail.co.uk/stories/a-new-timepiece-for-the-railway/

I set the watch back to a binary inteface for a bit. Holy shit, that's so much easier! I can just read it at a glance again.

#WristCheck

Binary watch with coloured squares. The hours are leftmost, minutes in the middle, date rightmost. Read vertically you get

010101 = 21 hours
010100 = 20 minutes
011000 = 24th day of the month

Fuck it. I guess I'm learning ternary then, since binary is too mainstream. 🤷

#WristCheck

Watch face with a weird looking face. There are two sets of teeth. Upper row of 3 shows the hour and lower row of 4 shows minutes. They encode the time using base three as the teeth have three states each: black, partially filled and filled.

The time is 09:40.

Other features on the face encode the seconds and date using different bases and states.

This reads like a warning. So is cURL like nuts? Are people allergic to cURL!?

@bagder my watch might contain your software, maybe. They aren't 100% sure though. 🤷 🤣

[Note to reader, it almost certainly does contain cURL. I would be shocked if it did not!]

This is not crucial to how I intend to use the phone but it could be handy so I dropped support an email about it.

Ok, well I can take photos, so … yeah. That is good then.

Feels correct to do my first photo as a #WristCheck 😉

A field watch with a black dial and numerals for 12 and 24 hour. Along with numbered minutes at every 5 intervals. On a green rubber strap. On a fairly hairy wrist. In the background you can see the edge of a book and a steel counter top. Taken with a Lightphone III
