Vestal G9 Global Traveller

If there's one thing about Vestal, it's that they know how to make a chunky watch! Today's model also seems to be a challenge to set as most of the Web search results are "how do I set my watch?" posts on forums.

The watch in question is the Global Traveller by Vestal. There seem to have been several models og Global Traveller, and this is the G9.

Vestal was started in California by David Bonaventura in 1997, and sell their own watches as well as making watches for companies such as Paul Frank, Vans, and Harajuku Lovers (-a different company than Harajuku Super Lovers). The company designs and produces many unusual designs with the themes of image and style.

Based on the date setting, this watch seems to have come out in the early 2000s. It has a solid metal case which is curved and blends into the metal strap. The display is an inverse LCD with two lines of information. The top line covers the time while the bottom has a mixture of dot matrix and digits to show day and full date. Modes are world time (which should be expected from a watch called Global Traveller), stopwatch, timer, and alarm (x3).

For anyone who comes across this in the search to find out how to set the watch, hold the light button for 3 seconds.
