last one i had was a Casio "g-shock look-alike" inverted lc-display watch =)
29,-EUR (39,-EUR now, see they increase in value LOL). I liked the retro look.

what i actually wanted was something where the digits really emit light / glow.

Could it be that people are increasingly looking for old, cheap digital watches like this? Something like a Casio calculator watch from the 80s etc?
