Gear: A new section of this website
NOTE: All future secthis gear reviews will be located at gear.secthis.com - this is a sample.
As hosts of secthis.com podcast we are always buying new gear - be it tech or firearms - and often we talk about it on the podcast. Well now we are going to add a new section to the website where we post short reviews of this gear - in secthis.com style of first having a drink, then writing a review!
If you think this is a good idea, let us know by emailing Gene. If this is a bad idea then email Mooner! No seriously send any of us mail and let us know what you think.
We have a number of items that we are ready to review for you, so let me start with the first utterly useful item!
I have been looking at getting a rugged, automatic, more full featured watch for a while. The main objectives that this watch had to fulfill were:
- It needed to be an Automatic - either a self winder of solar
- It needed to show at least 2 time zones
- It needed to have night viewing - whether tritium or back lighting



Again I was ready to buy, but while doing a price search, I found the Citizen Skyhawk Atomic Eco-Drive - another model that had the same features, but also had a 3 timezone display, and received the radio signal broadcast from the atomic cesium clock in CO. On top of that it had a very nice rotating slide rule. This seemed like it would fit the bill!
So now I have a watch which keeps time as precisely as a GPS, is self-powered even if I am not wearing it, and has amber LED back lighting which won't kill my night vision. If you look at the closeup video you can see that it has a constant UTC (GMT) face, a 24 hour local time zone face, a main 12 hour local time face, and another time zone display is possible in the digital display.
It may not win any style awards at the office, but in the field this is a ruged, completely automatic (it will even switch to daylight savings automatically), and functional watch for anyone who needs more than a basic dress watch. Retail under $600 is well under many of the Swiss watches I looked at. And here is the short closeup video.

Please note: we will actually have a GEAR section separate from the podcast... this is here just to let people know we are adding a section and will not normally be part of the podcast...
Seems the Gear site is down. Looks good from this little sample though.
I am really behind in the podcasts and need to catch up, thats the only reason I went to gear just now.
I reacon you need a forums.secthis.com as well, it would be a nice forum (pun intended) to talk to the presenters beyond email, and talk to other secthis subscribers.
