G-Shock with an Inbuilt flashLight

[Crenshaw]

I vaguely remember an image from my childhood where i believe it was a g-shock watch, that had a tiny light built into the side of it. The light faced forward, as in, if you were checking the time, the light would shine straight ahead. anyone remember something like this? or was it just my sub-concious flashaholism manifesting itself in a dream?

I don't remember there ever being a G-shock like that, but there were a few such Swiss Army Watches, IIRC. Here is a review of one:

Maybe that's what you're thinking of.

Timex has a watch with a light too. Adventure Tech LED

Casio might have had a watch like that since it appears to be the basis of this suit. GARY E. RHINE v. CASIO, INCORPORATED

I think i have seen this before too, did it have a long cylindrical flashlight attached to the watch on the side?. I remember seeing something years ago like this.

okay so maybe it wasnt g-shock, might have been baby-g, but i know its the 'g' family of watches. I remember translucent casing...it would have been something like this

Haz, not exactly LOonnnng cylicndrical light on the side, but yes, thats the idea..

I was kind of a watch nerd back them and owned a couple of g-shocks but I don't remember one like that. I remember the cheesy incan backlit model but not something that projected light forward. :thinking:

i dunno, maybe it wasnt even a g family, but i very distinctly remember there being poster for it outside a store in my neighbourhood when i was a kid.....

you know the feeling, where you hear a song but just cant remember the name of it? lol....thats the feeling..

Yes, that is what i was trying to describe, Crenshaw, i think we are talking about the same watch then.
