Hi !minimalism@lemmy.world

Let’s bring back the posting and get more activity in the community.


My question: What is your most prized possession?

I’ll start with mine. It’s a watch. More specifically it’s the Casio AE1500WH-1AV digital watch.

Why you ask? It simply limits my phone-use and allows me to be present. I can check the clock and date (full auto-calendar till 2099), no phone needed. I can start a timer, no phone needed. Has orange backlight on a button, without always on light, which allows me to see the clock in the middle of the night without ruining my sleep.

These are the features I use the most, however it has other useful functions a freaking 10 year battery (which is neat when you hate charging), 100m water resistance, 5 alarms, split times,

Also the price is 30$, which means it doesn’t matter if it gets destroyed, lost or otherwise, it’s pretty cheap to get a new one. However it hasnt happened yet, even though I’m pretty careless with it.


I’ve shown you mine, now show and tell us about yours.

    Wasn’t meant as a monetary question. However more of a was it the ones you had originally from back then. :)

    But didn’t you just say you made them yourself? Or did you just mean decoration wise?

    Taking it was filled with your journaling since you’re willing to shell out to get it back, and not just blank?

      I just mean it’s my writing. My words and thoughts engraved in time. That’s what I made.

      Yeah. Or, alternatively, I hope that what I wrote inspired someone to act.
