No disrespect to the seller if he/she visits here...just an observation!

Yikes.....misplaced decimal point syndrome alert!

You know, he offered that to me and I pretty much moved the decimal point as Mick suggested(he hasn't talked to me since). It wasn't even in a case at that time and that is not the case that is most commonly associated with that module. I think $375 is what you paid for your from me, right Mick? And that thing of it being super rare - I've seen at least 15 of those being sold on ebay in last 3-4 years, all for $500 or less. Anyone itching for one should contact me, have a few I could sell off.

The ONLY case that has a strong, repeated connection to that module is this one - La General is the manufacturer,sold under the Windert name.

Yes $375 was the approximate price paid, I purchased it with a couple of other watches, so I wouldn't be able to state the exact price paid.

The watch is one of my favorites, I like the programmable message module and I wouldn't mind another, besides the La General what other cases would you recommend to use with the module?

I still have like 3 of these, one i am currently wearing... Only drawback is setting the message, if you try it without instructions you probably already drain like half of the batteries just for the setting... Mine currently says like "AAAAAA AAAAA AA AA AAAA" XD I wanna set it since days, but thinking about it makes me feel weak already...

Instructions are under "Vintage LED watches - Ads and Instructions". Page 2. They are the same instructions I sent to the guy selling the watch at discussion. I have an original here...the ones posted are a mix of Hughes(acquired greatly afterward) and my originals.
