I have a Casio digital watch that I don't even know how old it is, but
it's at least 45-50 years at a guess. The buttons have gotten stiff over
the years, so the functions like stopwatch and lap timer don't work well
any more, but it does just exactly what I need from a quick glance at my
wrist: it tells me the day of the week, the date, and time of day.

And I have only had to replace the battery about 4 times in all those
years.
