I never understood what was so terrible about the digital watches. I understand that today’s smart watches are an absolute detriment to any semblance of privacy that you might have had before in this brave new world, but why would one hate something like a Casio?
I never took it as hate, just an acknowledgement of the simplicity of thinking about your digital watch and going “you know what? this thing is pretty neat!”
that being said it’s been a while since I read the books so maybe I’m misremembering some serious digital watch hate from later on.
personally I think my Casio is pretty neat and I also am unhappy for pretty much of the time, largely due to the movements of small green pieces of paper :)
