It's my birthday today (I'm 27) and they definitely get less exciting as you grow up! I'm not a watch person - I have the same cheap digital Casio I owned at 12 for running and exercise - but I'm rather happy with what the girlfriend bought for me.
She's in on another present, but that'll be revealed when it rocks up...

These two boxes arrived from France this weekend.
I ended up taking a few photos of them and posted them in a separate thread here not to clutter up this one

Right up my street that.My Postman brought me this little oddity today ...
Vintage Mongoose?
What you do is twist the bottom and the handle rotates 45 degrees, the mouth drops open and you can load a blade in ... proprietary, naturally, but injector blades fit and shave pretty well from a quick go this evening ...
... the presentation looks scary and the gap ludicrous, but it does actually shave pretty smoothly so long as you go with the contour of the top cap. The blade can be brought right up to the guard and clamped shut, tight ... but it seems to work better further back from the guard.
Oh, it's a 'Leslie' by the way.
