My friend found a Watchman at a garage sale yesterday. It's kinda like this thing here. It's about the sixe of an old walkie talkie, and used to be able to pick up tv channels by antenna. We tried it but no video channels came through, we were able to get some radio stations though.
(NSFW?) Searching images by "watchman" was not what I expected.
Yeah.... Might wanna add 'sony' to the beginning of that search.
That's not too bad. I was more expecting some blue dongs.
John's out here swingin meat.
I wanted one of those so bad as a kid. Unfortunately if you're in the US, all TV was required to switch to digital only in the 2000s, so it won't be able to pick up any modern stations. You could always buy a cheap analog video transmitter to go with it though!
Love it! Great to see more cassettefuturism posters!
Great for taking to a plastic beach!
