      The C-801 is lovely, but I'm not wearing it, feels fragile, so my flip it to someone who's really wanting this model... not bad condition, has a little fogging on the inside of the glass, so will see to that soon... but everything works, and has quite a decent backlight too, better than my DW-5000c :-P

    I wish I had kept this watch now! The calculator watch you showed, is the exact same one I used to have. It was bought as a gift for me when I was In hospital for a few weeks, that was many, many moons ago, and it was the very first Casio I owned. I absolutely loved that watch. I thought it was brilliant that a watch could also function as a calculator, and I have loved Casio watches ever since. They are still my favourite brand to this day!

    Once you figure out the date for your vintage watch do you need to change the date on the watch every year for it to be correct?

    • @WatchUP69MrRangeman
      @WatchUP69MrRangeman  3 года назад +2

      The simple answer is yes... just search for 2022 next year and use one of the years shown, then you're good for another year... still saves you time adjusting leap years and of course having the day of the week correct.

    Dear @WatchUP69 Mr Rangeman. I could not find a way here on RUclips to send a private message. I wanted to ask you something about Garmin Fenix 6. Have you well-tested barometer on the watch? How accurate do you find it to be? I keep an eye on it every day and I compare the data with official data from weather forecast services and the data on Fenix 6 is off by 1-2 numbers. Do you think it's just my stupidity not taking into account a difference of altitudes between my place where I am and the place of weather station I compare the data with? I am just trying to learn how accurate barometer is on the Fenix 6. P.S. sorry for totally off topic question. Cheers!

      Hey buddy... you can find all my contact details on my website :) But can chat here, and it's good for others who are also interested.
      With regards to the Barometric reading, this will alway be different when compared to a reading only down the road... just a little height can decrease the reading... now I breifly covered how I use my Barometer on my GWG-1000 Mudmaster full tutorial, as the number shown is really something that can be suited to you. Let me give you an example... on a wonder day with a steady air pressure I will calibrate my Barometer to 1000... I can read quickly if the pressure is up or down, but anything over 1000 will always be good. It's up to you how you choose, but the sensor for the Barometric pressure is very simply and can't really go wrong... in my opinion it's the best sensor on any watch :)
      So all is good my friend, and with only a few out, this is nothing :))
