Radio controlled watches have caught my interest lately. All I knew of Junghans was the chunky digital. I checked out the rest of their collection and I am completely smitten by this Racer model, especially in blue. So sweet.

for an ana-dig the functions are limited and not solar charged either which puts it behind even the cheapest Casio ana-dig, but does that dial look nice!

I especially like how the pusher are made to look like a crown guard. In fact I didn't even know they were pushers until I read the manual.

there are a couple of dial and strap options. Also a very nice looking analogue chronograph of this same model, but not RC.

Also some other nice looking modern styled RC models in the Junghans menu.

Why in the world did you show me this, John? ) )

That Racer is sweet my friend. I love Junghans and miss my chunky R/C digital dearly. But I also think I have come to the conclusion that the ana-digi R/C combo also works best for me.

There is only one authorized Junghans Ad in the United States (www.allabouttime.net). They are located in Cleveland, OH and that is where I originally got my Junghans Mega 1000. They problem is, they sell too close to full retail, although I have noticed, they lowered their prices some.

Great watches, 2 year warranty. Never had a lick of trouble with mine. I tend to view Junghans as the German "Seiko" that never was.
