well, #laco venedict rate is -2.3s/d, still good enough for me

#laco venedict might be my favorite #watch face. as any mechanical watch it is beautifully simple: no charging to worry about, no timers, no flashlight... though after a sunny day it glows for a solid five or six hours.

the only real trade-off is adjusting the time every week or so… but i rarely wear it for more than a few days at a time anyway.

surprisingly, it keeps time quite well (only drifting about 15...20 seconds a month), and it's both waterproof and shock-resistant. can handle running, jumping, swimming and whatever else i usually do

...oh, and at some point i have to service it to keep it running smoothly and waterproof. haven't done it once in years.
