I have learned over the years that when Nigel Cross (founder of Bucketfull of Brains fanzine and the Shagrat label) speaks, it's worth paying attention. Thus, when he began telling us about this great UK quartet, we sat up straight. His descriptions of their action, name-checking Joe Boyd's Witchseason Productions, Shelagh McDonald's debut LP and much else inspired unbridled longing. The Lords cut a 7 and a couple of CDs for the elusive Sunstone label, but Nigel managed to get them to agree to putting together this odds 'n sods collection for American consumption. The process of getting this record together ran into every mess you can imagine (and several you never could), but now it's in hand, and I think we can all murmur approval. With gorgeous cover art by legendary British psychedelicist, John Hurford and fine liner notes by Nick West (current editor of Bucketfull), The Future of Things Past is an extremely hep sampling of work by this wonderful quartet. The first track is a blazer, on which the band backs legendary US folk singer, Bonnie Dobson (who wrote 'Morning Dew') for a cover of 'Hares On The Mountain.' This trad song was covered by Shirley Collins and Davey Graham on Folk Roots, New Routes (1964) and was cut for a Shirley tribute set. Blazing like prime era Pentangle, the Lords are off to a stunning start. From there they mix live tunes, a few tracks from their EP, and other tunes into a sweet and splendid blend. The cover of 'Jerry The Mule' (perhaps best known from Dylan's Hotel Tapes) is a masterpiece of American Corn Pone. 'Moment To Moment' sounds like top shelf Brinsley Schwarz at their Bandsiest. And much of the rest swings in a way that reminds me of early Pentangle at their peak. The way the Lords mix foreground folk moves with jazzy rhythms certainly calls that band to mind and, as Nigel suggested, this is all woven into a production sound redolent of Joe Boyd's touch. In all, The Future of Things Past is a killer intro to a band from whom we are hoping to hear much more. If you can't dig it, I question your ability to actually dig." -Byron Coley, 2017 Edition of 400.

Attractive and reliable
Very attractive color. Numbers are large enough to read. Honestly don’t know if watch is completely water resistant because have not had the opportunity to find out. Love that watch lights up!

Easy to use/see
My eyesight is bad enough I cant use my cellphone at all without glasses. The clean display face and awesome backlight on this mean I can see the time any time of day or night without my glasses or a light.
Super simple to use:
Pull out the plastic protector on the crown
Pull the crown out 1 click to set/back in when done
Push on the crown for a REALLY good back light

Almost the perfect watch
Color: Black/Blue
I have owned three earlier models of these things going back to the days when I actually ran road races. They are brilliant pieces of work. My only complaint of them was that the start/stop/split button(s)--there were two on the older models--were too small. Well, apparently Timex listens and the two small buttons are now combined into one larger one. Probably this was done years ago but I'm only now getting back into road work, so now I get to discover it.
The perfect watch? Almost. I especially like this model as my eyes are not what they used to be and the oversized face makes it easier to read. The downside to this is that it also makes the crystal easier to scratch. That's always been an issue, but I can live with it. No, the real problem with this product is, was, and apparently ever shall be, the band. Now, it could be worse, it could be a resin band (like the old ones) that will crack and break within a couple of years, but no, this is a nylon and velcro wrap style which should be just dandy, but for three glitches: 1. it's too short 2. it's too narrow (gee whiz, Timex designers, it's an oversized watch, why not a matching oversized band?) and 3. it's still resin where it attaches to the actual watch. Now, I imagine it's probably less prone to breakage in how it's implemented, but if you should choose to replace it, I can see no obvious way of removing it short of cutting it off. Really?
But these are minor complaints. I doubt it would be comfortable on anyone whose wrists are much bigger than my own, but replacement bands are everywhere, and this watch will keep time with style and it's brilliant at splits. Heck, it even functions admirably as a backup for my expensive stopwatches at our regular short track stock car events. For my money (and did I mention the price is wonderful?) the Ironman is still the best at what it does, and for what it can do.
