  • The Casio F-91W. Timeless classic, with seven years of battery life.
  • A dutch bicycle. Made from steel, with a kickstand, a chainguard a dynamo and internal gear. Built to last.
  • A cordless screwdriver from Bosch. Fast charging and very good built quality.
  • A water heater for the kitchen.

A water heater for the kitchen.

If you want to spend slightly more, go for one with a hub dynamo. Those have way less resistance, and don't have a tendency to stop working in snowy weather.

Dutch bike less than $100? Where?

I just bought a casio duro batman (without the marlin unfortunately). It is my first ever watch. It looks absolutely stunning and costs around $50~$60

A watch? What utility does a watch have these days?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I used it during my shifts at lidl, where you're not allowed to get your phone out when your sorting the vegetables in the morning. You got this little LED when its dark and its pretty resistant.

Just bought an imported, used, Japan made bicycle. Same spec as you listed but with roller brake dynamo. The thing costs more like $125. And please pay attention that's used. No complaint about the prize at all.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ok, prizes vary between countries and how many are there of that kind. Anyway, I heard about the Japanese ones. Isn't it a "Mamachari"?
