Here's an old friend, my first JLC, and guaranteed to elicit smiles. Of all the JLCs I've added since this first, none attracts quite as much sincere interest and compliments.
It's big, colorful, cheerful, and playful. While other watches I've owned draw the inevitable questions about money from strangers without specific interest in watches, this one almost always draws questions about where I found it, who makes it, whether can I help with finding one, and, of course, earnest expressions of admiration: "cool color, cool watch, neat alarm clock!"
In short, it's a big watch without the baggage and a great summertime companion when paired with the rubber strap.
