Funny when something is built to do a specific task it tends to do it quite well. Remember (if you're an old fart like me) the timex commercials with the watch strapped to the prop of a high speed outboard motor submerged in a tank of water and revved at high RPM? Those Timex DID TAKE A LICKIN AND KEEP ON TICKIN! Inexpensive,quality made long lasting product for the masses, unlike our now moderately high, and high priced devices designed and built for planned obsolescence. Same thing that happened to cars, built beyond the ability of shadetree mechanics abilities and access to replacement parts.
