"... but avoid
: the GMT's, Day-Date-Month's etc." or
: just say "leave the watch locked up in
: the glovebox of your car when you go and
: play these sports".

Just read this post...now REALLY mad at myself. My nearly two year old White Face GMT has run at +4 sec/day as long as I've had it. I never really thought about NOT wearing it while playing golf (except on realy hot, humid days...sweat makes it very slippy). But lately, when I unscrew the crown for a morning "stop" to let official U.S. time catch up, something catches and moves the hour hand. I'm pretty sure this should not happen. I have about one month left on my warranty, so HELP!! If you were in Florida, where would you take/send it?!?
