I have a watch, pager and cell phone and my 20 something said he does all that with just a cell phone. I then pointed out to him that this is great so long as you remember to keep the phone charged......which he is bad at remembering!!! I have a 1950's Vacheron = that was my Grandfather's - don't know who to pass it onto - maybe I should shop it around and have the $ go to the M9 !!!? ernie J.
