Also known as The Cattle Raid of Cooley, this ancient Irish legend recounts the heroic feats of C Chulainn. The central epic of the eighth-century Ulster cycle, the story is written mostly in prose and set in the pre-Christian era. Scenes of fierce combat, interwoven with instances of earthy humor and wild exaggeration, form an ultimate moral decrying the futility of war and the worthlessness of possessions.
The tale begins with an argument between Ailill and his wife Medb, the queen of Connacht, over which of them is richer. The two are evenly matched save for Ailill's possession of a magical bull. Medb determines to obtain the Brown Bull of Cooley from nearby Ulster, where all the warriors are laid low by a curse -- save for the teenager C Chulainn, who single-handedly fights off the invaders. The T in abounds in historical interest, and Joseph Dunn's translation is both faithful to the Gaelic original and highly accessible to modern readers.

Feels cheap, not good for old eyes.
The watch seemed to work good. But it felt cheap, and I was looking for something with better illumination and easier to read. I ended up returning it.

Great watch
Color: Green
This watch is two times the price of the he casino watch but it is so much better. The indigo dial lights up completely from all angles. It is easy to read even in 0 light. Much more durable and runs on 1 battery instead of 2 batteries in the Casio. Can’t go wrong with this watch!!!
