Joseph Conrads debuut uit 1895 is een meeslepend verhaal over hebzucht, verval en verraad tegen de achtergrond van het koloniale bestuur in Nederlands-Indië. De arme zakenman Kaspar tuurt de hele dag vanaf zijn gammele veranda de Pantai-rivier af, en droomt van een goudmijn in de binnenlanden van Borneo die hem in één klap rijk zal maken. Almayer is van Hollandse komaf en ging ooit een veelbelovende toekomst tegemoet in Nederlands-Indië. Op aandringen van een geduchte avonturier, de ‘koning van de zee’ Lingard, is hij een huwelijk aangegaan met diens Maleisische adoptiedochter. Het huwelijk is allang doodgebloed; zijn vrouw veracht Almayer en zint op manieren om hem te gronde te richten. Almayers enige troost is zijn dochter Nina, zijn oogappel, die als jongvolwassen vrouw onlangs terug is gekeerd van het nonnenklooster waar ze haar scholing heeft gekregen. Voor haar houdt hij zijn hopeloze dromen in stand, totdat hij in de gaten krijgt dat Nina verliefd is geworden op een Maleise prins. In Almayers luchtkasteel weet Conrad op een haast tastbare wijze de botsing van culturen weer te geven, een thema dat hij in al zijn romans, waaronder het meesterwerk Hart der duisternis, verder uitdiept.

Little Small On The Wrist
Really cool timepiece, been loving timex a lot recently, this is me coming over Casio/G-shocks. Although it is a bit smaller on the wrist it still looks very nice and I really love the gray and like green color contrast. Really easy to read the time as well.

Sturdy and digital
This watch has “ fake screws” holding the band on . The band is actually held on by the usual pins holding it on most watches but weaker . The pin came off while I was putting it on for the first time! This is the second time I bought off Amazon in 2 weeks where the watch appeared to be sturdy and the pins fell off . Going back to military watches that have material straps that go completely around wrist and do not have pressure on pins

Favorite watch / solar
Color: Green/Green
I'm partial... I have bought Timex my intire life, they no doubt make the best watches... They take a licking, but keep on ticking is there old commercials.. True.. Great quality, keeps going after many year's... I never bought a solar watch from them prior I have to mention... It should hold up I'm thinking like their battery watches, I hope so. My favorite watch, I own a handful. Watch looks better in person... Downfall, they are trying a new band out of recycled plastic, I don't like it as much as the older bands it's soft, but feels a little strange...

Solar powered
Color: Green/Green
Great watch for us older folks. The hands are large enough to see easily and the fact it is solar powered means batteries do not have to be replaced every year or two.
