I'm wearing my Seiko crono.I would be wearing a Casio G Shock Mudman but had to send it back.I really liked the Mudman but I thought the alarm beep was broke.It actually worked but had to hold it next to my ear and could barely hear it.My hearing is normal.The reviews said the button were hard to push but they were ridiculously hard. to push.I'm still looking for a good G Shock.I too had some difficulties with the Mudman. It was very difficult to press the buttons which led to incorrect times for the chronograph. My alarm was also not as loud as I would have liked.
Was wearing this one most of the day today, Invicta 6684 SubAqua-Noma III........That is a sweet looking diver. I really like that blue strap - have you tried it with that?

Wore my Seiko Orange Monster with NATO band (thanks Grant). Matter of fact I lost my buckle todayBefore I acquired an appreciation for automatic watches, I had an Orange Monster that I wound up returning to the store because it was off about a minute per day. BIG MISTAKE! I miss that watch. In fact, it was one of the best quality watches I ever owned.
on the band but since I tuck the rest of the band in on top of itself
It held tight and I didn't lose my watch. :tu:

At first glance I thought that was an Omega. Nice looking watch :tu:

Hate the leather strap, it's the type with spongy fillers so really bulky. Can't put on a zulu either since the band narrows at end. I'll see if I can buy some other type from Timex.

That looks awesome. How big is it?

It's a little smaller than Core (I see you posted one), 46 mm diameter exclude crown, 13 mm thick. But a bit heavier since it's all stainless.
This is my best watch ATM, it's my solid EDC and has been for months.

Zed, you're right. It has an exhibition back so I took a pic. Its got different bridge work and it does not have the precision regulator but it's likely the same basic movement.
This is a similar one to my watchI want to know some information about my watch
It's a swatch watch

I have not worn a watch, out of the sea, for several years, though I do buy the occasional one if it looks intertesting.
I found these whilst looking through some of my stuff, from the days when I used to wear watches (before mobile phones).
So, in the topic "what watch did you wear in the eighties" :D I reply:
Citizen (good, used it for several years), Tag Heuer immitation from Thailand? (not bad) and French made (by Gruen) Soviet (really rubish, repaired twice soon after I bought it with no success).

Is the strap shown with it the one you are wearing now? If so, it goes very nice with it IMO.
Maybe the definitive definition of a "Geek" watch.

Early Luminox medium diver. Got it off eBay for a song because the seller didn't realize what it was. Tritium is still in good condition as well. I added a silicone strap and a deployment-type clasp and it still rang in under $60 all in.

I really hate looking at this thread. I keep getting the urge to buy another watch after seeing all the great ones everyone else has. The only things keeping me from doing it is that I can't afford the watches I like and I haven't even worn my Orange Monster in a while. If I'm not even wearing the ones I have, why get more?My formula for making sure my collection gets worn, is to have watches for occasion/wardrobe/weather. The watch I wear with a suit, I wouldn't wear by the pool during the summer :) As for cost, buy replicas, all the look, all the fun, fraction of the price tag :tu: There are, however three golden rules of replica ownership: 1. Never wear the watch into a legitimate jewellery dealer 2. If someone asks if it's real, never say yes 3. Never ever ever try to sell it as the real thing on eBay. Other than that, buy and wear what you like, and enjoy :D
I know, that's a pretty pathetic argument around here! :P

Yes, I had Duarte at Northeast Watch Works do this for me several years ago. Back then it made some sense as the watch itself was only $100.00 which included shipping. The bead blasting was right around $50.00.Worth every penny :tu: :cheers:
Unfortunately, the price of the watch has gone up. But, Momentum watches by St. Moritz has some (Atlas, Cobalt Lite, Cobalt V) that look darned near identical minus the Eco-drive. Decent watches that get good reviews and Momentum is fairly active over on Watchuseek forum in the "Affordable Watches" section.

Do you think the magnet from a slide on compass will affect any of the Casio g-shock models? Those without a compass built in that is?Are you referring to one of those compasses that goes on the wrist band?

Lil' thread bump with a pic of my Casio PAW2000 on a Maratac Zulu band.
This one is getting a LOT of wrist time. So lightweight, many groovy features and very comfy on the Zulu. It came with the standard plastic/rubber type band, which I find sweaty and bulky.

Speaking of mud, I had the Mudman years ago and it was great except the buttons were hard to push (hurt the fingers after a while).
I like the DW9052's buttons a lot but worry that they could get clogged with dirt.Speaking of mud, I had the Mudman years ago and it was great except the buttons were hard to push (hurt the fingers after a while).
i found some gasios do have hard buttons, the 285 has metal ones on the left side and flat plastic ones on the right, odd set up but i do prefer the plastic buttons over the metal ones, its all clean now, more than could be said for my bike ::) :D

Heh, guess people here isn't as uptight, at watch or style forums anything other than dress watch on leather strap gets yelled at, nylon is an absolute atrocity. Not that I'm a member of those forums, I just search on them if I have a question on something. :D
I've been a member on such fancy watch forums (which I will not name) and I found some of them to be quite snobby. For what it's worth, when I owned a Rolex Seadweller, I wore it on a nylon strap! :cheers:

I got this Wenger from nelly1974 in a trade on Saturday. It needed a battery, so I got that taken care of this morning and promptly put it on.

I was aware of the "Hommage" thing, but my question was regarding the MTO version done by Zed.
Gareth´s comment sounds promising (although, really, i do not need another watch , you know)
Is there a specific name for this kind of strap? I was looking for something like it a few months ago but only kept finding those so called punk/emo/goth type straps with more chains and spikes than leather. ::)

I could list nearly half a dozen sites, and Ebay sellers that have this homage to a Rolex Submariner/DeepSea Dweller for quite reasonable prices. I myself scored one for about $65 USD, as I could never justify the actual price for a DeapSea.

It is called a Bund strap and you can find a really good selection at www.strapcode.com (http://www.strapcode.com) They have a pretty good selection of material choices and colors in each selection. :D
EDIT: they also carry quite a selection of Nato style straps as well :tu:
I quite like the look of the sterile dial that one has. No need to scatter other stuff all over it :)

Grumpy, you sure deserve that but it is a user and I need it. I swim with it and wear it always when I stargaze. I have it since 2004-2005 and paid 175€ for it then, well deserved. It would be difficult to buy another one under the current financial circumstances. I hope you'll find soon a Pro Trek or Pathfinder, they are great watches.

I chose that model because it's supposedly a homage to an early Casio model. I can't remember which though.
So mine's really a modern re-make, think I bought it new circa 2006-2007. :)

I own two, the other one (no pic yet) has atomic reception and has analogue hands.

Well, you´d be surprised how quick they accumulate....
If you are only the least bit likely to collect stuff (which i assume as you are here) i would strngly advise not to buy any more than one G-Shock and never to visit the G-Shock section on Watchuseek.
although you could meet soem people you know from here over there, too. But they are as bad enablers concerning watches than they are here concerning tools.
I do not know the actual amount, but as with tools, i have a few G-Shocks apart for mods, some modded and still buy soem occasionally.
Me too. But too much of both categories if you ask my fiance. and too much bikes, btw.
And tools in my shop.
Leather looks good on it.
I wore my Seiko Black Monster today and went to the watch shop to get myself a leather watch band for it (instead of the standard metal one).

Very nice!¡!
Is it worth putting a battery in?I suppose you should, you'd find out if it works alright or not. However, I think it may require a specific battery type, as indicated.
Put a seiko 390 not a Renata brand that usually comes Swiss watches, as they have a problem with leaking , Ive seen this problem with Renata batteries for 15 years or more and still see current model Swiss watches with Renata batteries leaking.Thanks for the info! I have no opinion on that at all. Just pointing out that the batteries voltage/specifications Swatch lists vary slightly depending on the model. I should think that it's important giving that quartz the right juice, that's all. Welcome to the forums :cheers:

Just checked out these Hamilton watches, they look very nice. And indeed, some of them look alot like my Seiko Aviator, but mine is a lot less pricey, even though it's also an automatic with a see through bottom. Mine only costs 75 € (65 € if you want a green one). I've been thinking about changing the standard strap for a leather one, maybe in the future ...
If memory serves well, the movement in that Seiko is a true beater. How is the time keeping accuracy?
IMO it looks best in a nato-strap. :-)

I had that watch for a couple of months before someone made a rather nice offer on it. I can tell that you if you're willing to try regulating it yourself +10-15 seconds a day is more than possible. The 7S26 movement is very well known, being in all the standard Seiko 5s and the Monster auto divers.
As it is, it's a pretty well bulletproof movement, along with the Vostok 2415/2416.

It followed me home, I swear!
For the past few weeks the only watch that I have been wearing is the pebble - its a digital smart watch with a customisable face that connects to your smart phone via bluetooth to display notifications, messages, calls etc, let's you control phone features like music and runs apps :-)
It's hard to believe how useful it is, and has relegated my normal watches to display pieces!
A true multi tool watch! Just needs an awl...
So maybe it should send out small electric shocks so you don´t miss calls, shouldn´t it?
Would need a big battery, though.
It´s interesting what will come to the market Wrist-worn device wise in the next years.
Is it strange that I´m eyeing teh Bluetooth Casio although i don´t own a Smartphone? :facepalm:
I figured when Zed manages to overhear his Cells beeps he would most likely ignore teh buzz of a vibrating watch, too and electric shocks should be quite efficient... :D
How long does tah battery last on teh Pebble, and does it connect to all bluetooth devices or just to a specific platform (Apple, Android, Windows...)?
The model is the acl 200 and its sports specially running oriented with lots of functions. The cool thing is that it came in the rare qw1531 module that was used only for that model as far as i know.+1 Nobody makes a watch like a CASIO :salute:

Nice, ive been wanting to get one of those gshocks. How resistant is the glass to scratches? i know they can take a beating and still work but would they look beaten or they manage to keep their shape after you scratch a wall with them?
Im always doing manual work so no matter how carefull i am i always end up banging, scratching everything i wear or carry :-\

This works really well. I got one of those Zagg invisible shield dealies for an Ipad on clearance for $10 and put one on my Marathon GPQ. No scratches and the screen protectors are actually quite tough in terms of resisting marks as well.
Also, I have enough to make protectors for about 100 watches.

Would it not be possible to remove the straps from a G-Shock and add a quasi-permanent spring bar to act as a lanyard attachment? The DW-5600-E series, as I remember, might be a good candidate to try it on.

I don't have one that I would risk it on just yet. I would be worried about it falling off and my current Gshock costs around $250. I had an older cheaper model that would be perfect but I can't seem to find it.

That is a nice, clean Aviator you have there. I've looked at getting one of these before, as it is about the best deal on a well-made automatic you can find. My only beef is the non-standard band width. I wish it were 18 or 20mm.
Mine fits a 18mm Nato band just fine. :think: Also what I wore today. :D
Thanks to thomas im wearing a dw5600c today,center in the family picture :tu:
To avoid opening another thread ill ask here, can anyone recommend an online source for watches that ships international? I searched ebay but i read about the possible chance of getting a replica watch, so i would prefer to buy it from a trusted store/seller.
Anyone had any experience with www.watchubs.com (http://www.watchubs.com) ? they seem to be nice and have very reasonable shipping costs but i dont know anyone who have dealt with them.
Thanks for any suggestions.
also if you're looking to buy any Gshocks I have about 40 I need to sell. LOL

you need the gwm5600.
its solar and multiband 5 or 6 depending on model #
a little more unique compaired to most 5600s you see people wearing.
and most importantly to me....its lighter.
to me the 5600 is a little face heavy with the standard 5600s......still a great watch don't get me wrong...but I can be picky at times. =)
also if you're looking to buy any Gshocks I have about 40 I need to sell. LOL
Oddly one of my favourites is the dw5600e as more basic,its closer to the first g-shock that casio made back in 1983and that was my first model the dw50001b ,the g56000e tough solar i have is a nice watch but doesn't get wore very often as prefer the more basic 5600 ,the dw5600c was my second g i brought in the early 90's plus with the metal tuna case and screw on case back they feel even more solid :tu:

Found out the bracelet was broken/ripped (second time this happened since I bought it). Still have the original battery. The indiglo light feature stoped working after a few months, the 1st strap lasted a couple of years, maybe. Payed €30 for the watch, €16 for a new strap less than 2 years ago.
This is the end of it. No more €€€ for repairs, no more Timex for me....

Usually, the solar batteries on Casios do work for about 7-12 years before they no longer hold a charge. So you will have to change the Battery sometimes. This is from my experience wit used and new Casios.
Lifespan depends on use - A regularly worn (and charged) watch might klast longer, especially when you don´t use the alarms often and don´t use the EL light every 5 Minutes.
I would not always favor a Solar over a Battery powered Casio, but sometimes the models with the nicer feature sets are only available as solar powered watches.
But changing it is not harder than on a "regular" battery powered watch.
Timex watches are disposable. They're all about cranking out as many different models in as many different colours as possible and sticking an insane price tag on them. If you want a watch that will last you, buy a CASIO. :pok:I couldn't agree more. Honestly, I'll never buy another Timex again. Like you said, they no longer care about quality, only quantity.

Usually, the solar batteries on Casios do work for about 7-12 years before they no longer hold a charge. So you will have to change the Battery sometimes. This is from my experience wit used and new Casios.
Lifespan depends on use - A regularly worn (and charged) watch might klast longer, especially when you don´t use the alarms often and don´t use the EL light every 5 Minutes.
I would not always favor a Solar over a Battery powered Casio, but sometimes the models with the nicer feature sets are only available as solar powered watches.
But changing it is not harder than on a "regular" battery powered watch.
It seems that the 10 year battery of the original triple-10 concept got dropped with the introduction of more battery-hungry features like electro-luminescense. For example, the dw-5600e battery life is rated at around 3 years.
So, I have looked at solar as a way to get back the 10 year battery life, not as something that will last forever.
For some reason, it seems Citizen Eco-Drive watches have longer lasting rechargeable batteries. I've always been curious what they do differently.

I got my Seiko Series 5 because I don't want to keep changing batteries and don't want to have to rewind my watch every day. There are some minor problems with the Seiko, I was looking for something more accurate and reliable but have to read more about Casio Solar and Citizen Eco-Drive machines before deciding...
Any and all input/considerations are welcome!

As far as i know, Casio buys it´s all-analog watch movements from other japanese manufacturers. Rumors have it that the "tough Solar" MRW-300 series is a Eco-Drive in disguise.
What problems did you find with the automatic seiko? i heard good things about that movement (7s36) but didnt tried one so id like to know how they work in regular use.
Not much of a rumour. People have cracked open Casio analogue watches and found Miyota (Citizen) quartz movements inside.

The 7S36 movement was designed for longevity, not for absolute accuracy. Even well-regulated pieces won't keep quite as good time as a Miyota 8215 (another classic Japanese auto), but also don't need to be serviced nearly as often.

The watch also has a +/-2 min difference every 4 or 5 days.
I discovered these two aspects in the first month I had the watch. I sent it to the dealer and it came back with the statement that "this is normal with these watches, there's no malfunction"...
:rant: :rant: :rant: :rant:
I set my Seiko's to the exact second (or very close). Since I don't carry them all the time (I switch them with one of my Casio watches from time tot time) they get to the point that they stand still, and when I want to wear one, I take one of my radio controlled Casio's to see the exact seconds, and start to shake my Seiko from the moment the seconds on the Casio are exactly the same as where the Seiko stands still (hope this makes sense ... :-\), and when the Seiko is running again, I set the hour and minutes and date again.Yup, that's a way to adjust time, I thought of that while writing my post. Only thing, you need to have your watch come to full stop to adjust it and if you loose 2 or 3 minutes in a week or so, you might as well forget about the seconds and just try to get the closest minute, either by excess or by default...
My Seiko's loos about 5 or 6 seconds every 24 hours when I wear them continuously, the guy where I bought them from claims when he recieves the Seiko's, they loose somewhere between 20 and 30 second every 24 hours, but he can "fine-tune" them to about 5 or 10 seconds every 24 hours. Don't know if what he says is true, but I do know both my Avaitor and Monster loose about 5 or 6 seconds every 24 hours, which is good enough for me ;).

:think:
I have found that I can get the seconds hand to stop on my Seiko 5 (7S26 movement) by pulling the crown all the way out and then applying gentle reverse (backwards time setting) rotational pressure to the crown. Does that make sense? I turn the crown as of I was trying to set the time earlier, but just a slight pressure. A second before the correct time, I release the pressure on the crown and give the watch a shake to get it going again.

This one again ...It's also professional enough that you could wear it to any occasion. Nice watch :tu:
(http://i748.photobucket.com/albums/xx122/50ft-trad/P1010852.jpg)
Cheap enough so I don't feel I have to baby it too much, comfortable enough, and accurate enough. Many watches irritate my wrist after a few hours, but not this one. I'm not as bothered as some others here about accuracy either - I set a watch to within a minute or so, and so long as it stays within a couple or three minutes, that's good enough for me.
I will admit that I am a watch luddite though :P and only tend to buy something if it's cheap, easy to read, and isn't too fussy/glitzy/sporty/gadgety etc

Just got my automatic Lanco back, with a new wristband. There are no compatible crystals available for this old guy, I have been told. The ones that fit would not allow for water resistance...
I think it looses about a minute a day. Does anyone around here know if this is easy to fix?

Yes, but I wouldn't suggest you go into it not knowing what you are doing.
Inside the watch will be a small adjustment screw that will either speed up or slow down the mechanism.

It´s called "Zeitwaage" (Time scale) in german - It basically counts the ticks (or clicks of the anchor wheel)
and tells you if and how exact your clock works. AFAIK there are Android apps available, allowing you to do just that on a less professional level - the mic listens to your watch and calculates if it runs fast or slow.

I found one of those apps for iPhone. However it seem the mic does not have enough sensitivity...
As the watch has been prone to stop, today I fiddled a little more, trying to get it again in beat. Without a timing machine and proper tools, it's a matter of luck. I used a mic and a computer to listen to the ticking sound and then made a few adjustments. It now sounds at least a little more regular. I think I will be happy if it returns to the initial state :-) better loosing a minute a day than stopping now and then.

I have just resurrected this little fellow with a new battery and a new wristband. It's a Charles Hertig (I bet no one has ever heard about such a brand) and it was a family gift a few years ago.

The watch is oxidizing because the plating has worn so thin that the case metal (probably base metal/brass) is being exposed to the elements. There's not a whole lot you can do now as any oxidization you clean off will come back in fairly short order (and likely worse).
I've been told that Orient has a very good movement for its cost (watchuseek forums has good info on that). It uses an inhouse movement which is of similar quality (sometimes better) than Seiko. And, not in the least, it uses saphire crystal which means I won't beat it up as easily as my last watch :whistle:
Totally difefring from my usual habit, i did not wear a Casio GWM5600 today, but a Wenger Bataillon I recently purchased used.
WOW!!!! :ahhh :ahhh
Now THAT is my kind of watch :drool: Just look at that illumination! It's absolutely beautiful!
That´s a nice watch.
And I want one of these "Real Men" Aprons.
And when you get it you can post it here as a watch you wore today.;-). It's a beaut.

Ok. I just bought a nice Citizen from a felow member...Now, and I repeat myself here, please, do stop showing off Seiko 5 watches. Either post Watches I am not interested in (two tone, blinged out , maybe?) or ones that are out of budget. But PLEASE stop showing off nice watches I could afford by just stretching the Toy budget a tiny little bit too much...
Please.
OK, back to my own self:
I can see a Seiko 5 in my not too distand future. Got to make up my mind about which one and will go looking for a good deal then.

I posted earlier about my accutron spaceview. Got it back from the local retired repair fellow (87 years old) yesterday and it works like a charm. Nice quiet hum to it. Sure nice to have it working again at a reasonable repair cost.
He figures a battery should last about a year and expects to be around for some time yet to change it for me.

Still not 100% understanding the bilingual day. I set it in english and when the day changes it switches through spanish. Is it supposed to go by the spanish then to english or if you set it in english is it supposed to only display english days.
Referring to the movement not being as accurate to a quartz movement. While im not arguing with you, but I have found my Seiko 5 to be more accurate than both my wenger watches. My automatic is on par with my non automatic seiko. Ill wait a few more days to see if it looses or gains any more time though.

Nice Breitling! :drool:thanks man!
Owning any Breitling would be my holy grail.
I like the Hamilton as well. Is that the same Hamilton that made pocket watches before the turn of the century?

Same company but they're now owned by the Swatch Group
That's a nice looking watch Ryan.
in a water resistant watch, where does one take it to get a new battery put in? the only watch i own (other than a mickey mouse, and a goofy backwards watch from high school) is my brother's watch, which i inherited about eight years ago when he died. i'd like to get it working again, but i don't want to trust it to the jewelry counter at wal-mart. i'm pretty sure all it needs is a battery. and a new band.

edit: i should have said, the only wrissmurfch i own. i also have my grandfather's pockesmurfch (one of them), which i used to edc, but it randomly loses or gains ten minutes now and then, and again, nowhere to get it fixed. plus i forget to wind it, and i am afraid i'll break or lose it when i am working.
edit again: lol @pockesmurfch and wrissmurtch....should probably hyphenate, sorry.
Anyone know the water resistance on the Seiko 5? It just says water resistant but has no rating. :think:

Great guys thank you. :tu:
JD. Your saying its completely water proof up to 50 meters right? Where did you get the info?
Another question. :twak: anyone have a idea of what kind of jewels they are using in the 5's.

Err, kind of jewels? It'll be synthetic rubies, same as every other mechanical watch on the planet (unless it's a pin-lever movement which the Seiko is definitely not).
As for water resistance, don't go swimming or take a shower with it on. Water resistance ratings are for static water pressure only.

So really on a watch rated to 500 metres + you still shouldn't take it that deep? not that you probably would be able to dive that deep anyway

It refers to a standard way of checking the watch is water proof. (Submerging it in a simple pressure chamber, then increasing the pressure.) Here's a quick explanation of the most usual ratings: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_Resistant_mark#Water_resistance_classification
Cap'n, the model of the 5 we both have has a 50m rating. Wearing mine today after a week of enjoying my new Timex. :tu:
I'm wearing a Casio F-91W everyday now. I'm wondering why I didn't grab onto one of these earlier. It is a stupidly simple watch that does everything well. I wore it on vacation last week too. This was in Freeport, Bahamas.
This one today.

I have found you can only rotate so many watches. After a while my favorites keep gravitating onto my wrist. The others become shelf Queens
Nice. :tu: I'm actually to the point where I need to find a storage solution for the watches I have, they've exploded in population in the past several months. All this forums' fault..... :twak:

Jerseydevil, I found the perfect watch storage by mistake. I was walking in one of our local furniture shops and I came across a beautiful little unit that was perfect for my starting MT and SAK collection. I bought it without knowing that there was a hidden top section. I got it home and when I moved it into position, the top opened up. I was sure I broke the cabinet until I took a closer look. The perfect watch storage, and hidden at that. Here is a link to an image.

But the watch is worth it, I think. Very nice and simple watch - Is it auto or handwind?!
Today my boss took his watch off and handed it to me to hold on to while he did a dirty job in the back room, and I took a look. It turns out that there were two people on the staff wearing Seiko 5's today..... :)
Marathon General Purpose Quartz with date. Swiss Made, tritium lume, polycarbonate case and acrylic crystal. ETA quartz movement with an end of life indicator. You can also get it with no date, with a 17 jewel mechanical movement and with superluminova instead of tritium.
Besides replacing the band, I painted the tip of the second hand red and added a protector on the crystal.

Love it :tu:
Been wearing my Seiko 5 for almost 2 months and love it! I did notice that when the weight inside the watch spins it makes a rattling noise. I don't remember it doing that when I first got it. Does anyones else do this? Thanks guys.
I think I still might make a trip to my jeweler and have him check it out. It just seems like its not supposed to be that loud. It keeps perfect time though. :think:
Good advice for a expensive watch, but i'm not too worried about it since its a $50 seiko. :tu:
Isn't that a automatic? Is it a self winding? JR
I got this vintage (Frankenstein?) Seiko 5 (7009-3170) from eBay and it's working relatively well. Is it horrible for today's esthetic standards?
Does anyone around here remember the kind of wristband it used to come with originally?
Best regards

If you like the watch that's all that matters. I personally think it looks fine.
As for original band it was it would likely be a fitted steel band.

Thanks! It's my perfect watch - Solar powered, not too expensive and it's pretty good in the dark too.
Atomic solar power - Are they the really REALLY accurate ones? The ones that take their time from a central clock? Tell me more!Casio makes a few diff ones, I have two that are solar, but only one that is atomic, wait I take that back, two that are atomic, but it's not solar nor self winding nor Casio, but this is one of my fav and is both, just set it and forget it.. At night after ten or eleven it turns off if it doesn't see light to save juice, it will still chime on the hour, and once it does see light it will turn, and at 12,1,2,3,4(I think) it will try to read the waves sent out from the atomic clock to keep itself set to the sec. Other then that it's solar and keeps itself charged, and does everything a electronic watch does.. JR

About a week ago I was talking with my brother about watches, and mentioned I was thinking about getting a plain, no-nonsense beater for wearing at work, without worrying about killing it. Yesterday for my birthday, he gave me this....

Timex Weekender. Exactly what I was looking for! Simple, inexpensive, but not a flimsy cheapo. I like it. :tu:
It's a nice watch for being so simple. It's easy to read like Swiss Man said, no date to have to fiddle with, and it's got Indiglo as well. It's a decent size without feeling too big on the wrist too. The band is a bit meh, but replacements are easy to find. Timex makes them in many different colors, and any 20mm band will fit. If I decide I'm not too crazy about this one, I'll just get another NATO style band and put it on. The other nice thing is that I've seen these at Target for $35. If I kill it, I'll just get another one. :) I wore it all day today at the store and after, and it's quite comfortable. This one's a keeper. :tu:That's the only thing I wasn't to ahh about it, was that it didn't have the day and date, my memory sucks, and if it wasn't for the kids I wouldn't know what freaking month it is! I really like that citizen Eco drive a few posts back cause not only did it have 1-12 #'s for markers, but it also had 5-55, plus didn't need batteries.. I have a few self winding ones, but if you don't wear them for like 36hrs then they stop and you gotta reset them! JR
I like that Seiko Kinetic Divers, DIBS if it ever goes up for sale. I can't believe that someone only owns 1watch. Are you holding out on us?
My new Vostok Amphibia on a bond nato. Other than being a bit of a pain to set the date I'm loving this watch

That particular design is called the Navigator-B. It's a pattern that was made specifically for German aviators in World War 2. The dial pattern with the triangle at 12 and the hour markers with no centre markings is called the Navigator-A

Interesting, well maybe you can help me out with something,, I don't understand why is it they have to put 1-12 markers rather then #s along with 5-55, then sometimes 13-23, then 5-55 again on the bezel? Why can't they put a good solid 1-12# for hour markers, then 5-55# with a triangle at the top on a rotating heavy bezel, like a dive watch? JR

Is that yet a new bracelet?! That Seiko has a lot of accessories...
:D :D :D :D
Pepsi refers to the combination of colours and its a dive feature. In my particular case even though im gonna use it in the ocean, im not gonna dive with it so its just because i like it.
For the real purpose of a pepsi bezel here is an old post in watchuseek that will explain it better than me http://forums.watchuseek.com/f74/purpose-pepsi-bezel-657062-2.html (http://forums.watchuseek.com/f74/purpose-pepsi-bezel-657062-2.html)
I'm wearing my 1980s era Rolex GMT Master with the classic Pepsi bezel. This watch can take a beating and still run great and look great. I wear this about 99% of the time, and really only take it off in the shower, where I wash it daily.That's a sharp looking watch! :tu:

I have the same one, but with a metal band. I'm the last year I have shied away from most metal bands. Yours looks great with a leather band. I will have to get a new leather band eventually. :tu:
Not my pic but I'm wearing this today. It's a Skagen 858XLSLB. Really like how thin this watch is.

my Casio tough solar is gone :facepalm:
I spent a good chunk of last weekend looking for it
I think a kid might have made off with it.
I had a birthday party for my nephew and I think one of his little friends grabbed it.
I'm not going to ask my nephew. Its not his fault and he would tell me if he knew.
kids
I got my watch back.What model were you going to buy? :pok:
it was on my kitchen counter this morning.
I have a feeling that the mom of the kid brought it back.
my wife would have been up to let her in. I asked her if someone stopped by and dropped it off. She said I should just be glad it came back. So I am doing just that. :)
the only bad part is I was going to replace it with G gshock . The Mrs OK'd it.
o well
I got bills to pay so I won't be buying one now that I got my trusty solar back.
I will some day.
a very black one.

The Timex Weekender I bought for work use died the other day. :( The crown was broken off somehow, didn't realize it until I looked at my wrist and the watch said 7:30 well into the morning. So, today at the local flea market I grabbed a Casio F-105 for $15. Nice and simple, and if it dies at the store, I'll just toss it and get another one. :tu:

So, I'm looking at G-Shock/ Casio watches a little more closely right now for a near future purchase. I am going on a rafting trip this summer and will be needing something a bit more rugged than a Swatch or Echo-Drive. I think I have narrowed my choice to three. I've got my eye on the Casio PRG270-4 Pro Trek, G-Shock 9300-1 Mudman, G-Shock GDF 100-1b. Any suggestions (of other watches even) or help with this would be greatly appreciated as I don't know much about these.I don't have any of the models you posted but have two gshocks myself and I must say I like them. Both are solar powered, but the one is atomic, I love it, all I have to do is just wear it, it does the rest. Also nice not having to worry about the batteries! JR

The Mrs and I went to Austin on Monday to check out a movie (Million Dollar Arm) and we had some time to kill so we went to a department store. I went straight to the watch counter to see what they had to offer. G-Shocks are huge watches!¡! Well, some of them. I'm eyeing the GA1000-4A for a very possible addition to the three I'm considering. I almost walked out with it that night but restrained.Nice looking G there, orange and all :drool:

I used to swim with it on resulting in the front piece peeling away. So I decided to see how much the G could take and I finally killed it. I liked that watch and wish that I'd just replaced the front piece and kept it... ::)

Dual core Android 4.0 smartphone/watchAmazing... the technology. I am far too rough on a watch though. I'd give that fancy gadget about a week before it was destroyed.
no,not really on my wrist...
But it is a pretty cool looking geek toy. If my eyes were better I'd be tempted. But I have trouble reading stuff on the 4.5" screen on my Galaxy S III
I had a little coin flipping competition between my G's last night for a work watch. The winner/loser? My DW9052.That's another classic Tom, and IMO a very comfortably fitting watch.

I got a new watch about a month or two ago. I don't routinely wear one these days, but I do when I'm outdoors and my iPhone is in my bag or something out of harms way.
Can't afford a g-shock as they're $220USD for a basic one in stores here, so I spent 1/10th of that and got a solar powered one that has the moon phases and tides (ideal for if I'm using it fishing).

Not a fan of the plastic strap or especially the plastic buckle, but other than that is seems choice.
Could get one off eBay but this does all I need it to do considering how infrequently I wear it.

I've seen a couple of them converted with diff dials but to nothing of what I like. I've got a dozen diff watches, and none have that perfect feel.. But a monster with that massive bezel and offset crown would be perfect so long as the dial was what I wanted.

Well, the first gen. Monsters have minute markers (but no hour markers). Other than that, Seiko drivers are quite easy to mod, so if you were really keen you could replace the dial for one with hour markers.

I must confess that I also took my Casio Riseman with me in my camera-bag, the Riseman was my vacation watch for the last couple of years, and since I had no long-time experience with the Suunto, I wanted to have a back-up plan in case something went wrong with the Suunto. And I also wanted to compare both of them to see how accurate they were as alti-meter.
During my week in Austria I noticed that the Suunto was the most accurate alti-meter of the two, (probably because you can rule out pressure changes due to the weather on that one), Most of the time, the Suunto was, give or take 5 meter, spot on, while the Casio was sometimes of by more than 50 meter (one time the Casio "lost" 200 meter during the night).
Here are some pics from my Vacation in Austria:

Its ok. Very light weight. Easy to read. Poor lume, but better than nothing. Water resistanse is a big pluss. Pretty good value for money. :tu:It's totally what I'm after, it has the 5-55 on the bezel, all #'s 1-12(well besides 3) and a day/date. The only thing I'm not to fond of is that it's plastic, that setup in stainless and self winding would be a total dream! JR

I own this very model myself. I dowear it on a black leather strap as my "Dress Watch" whenever a G-Shock would be innapropriate.
OK. While not the nicest or best out there. But I am wearing a Armitron. I got it just to see if wearing a wrist watch would drive me nuts or not and if I can get used to it.

Nate
Lol! It does not transform, but it does a lot of beeping.
We will see how I get along with it. I just noticed that it is water resistance of 330 feet. Which is 324 feet more than I need. Anything past 6 feet and I am smurfed. I swim like a rock. Straight to the bottom. Lol!

Lovely watch. I had one of those for 10 years until last November when I whacked it on a slide in the park and shattered the glass. :(
Replaced it with this Seiko

I might have taken it last May. ;)
The button is to check the charge on the battery - press it and the second hand sweeps round to indicate how much power is left.
Citizen Eco-Drive. Nothing fancy, just reliable, idiot proof, easy to read, and decent looking.
That is a very cool function. How many times did you press when you first got it?
I'm glad to hear you had your Ecodrive for 10 years - I'm on year 8 now and I'm wondering how long the solar battery lasts. Did yours keep going until you broke it?

After over a decade, I am wearing a new Genuaaaine Casio G-Shock.... from Dinodirect..Why would you want to wear a fake? :pok: ???
It looks similar to the real one, but the actual module is different and basic (Alarm, stopwatch, clock) The adjust button and the G button do the same - they operate the light (multicoloured led)
Still quite content with my CASIO Rangeman. Although it is water resistant, I don't shower with it on. I'd like to keep the gasket in pristine condition.
The compass is spot on, and the barometer is pretty good at predicting rain. My only question is with the altimeter that doesn't seem to spit out accurate results.
I'm moving down the street but at my current residence the time automatically updates each night.
One of the more expensive CASIO's, I'd say worth every penny. :tu:

I bought this Suunto Core Orange today. I wanted one for years, a decade almost. I bought a Casio Protrek instead that's less dressy (but well used when outdoors and traveling).
Now I see this Suunto has low contrast and perhaps it needs a battery (bad lighting), the Casio is the opposite, really easy to see day and night. But it is beautiful and has many functions to play with. I'll see how it is in everyday use.
Whith freash battery it's easy for me to read the Core. However I played with contrast. The fact is that after I changed the strap with a black it killed my watch rotation. I don't want to miss it for a day until my death.

The compass is spot on, and the barometer is pretty good at predicting rain. My only question is with the altimeter that doesn't seem to spit out accurate results.
Altimeters work through measuring the air pressure, and calculating the elevation from that (the higher you get, the lower the pressure will be). Of course with weather changes, the air pressure will change as well, and I think it needs to be recalibrated on a known hight, to then from there measure the real elevation.
That's why it doesn't measure accurately at all times ;)
Thanks for sticking thisn song in my head. Think I´ll need some Motörhead, Aerosmith or GnR tonight in the shop to get it out.

They were my "musical awakening" and I still think Appetite for Destruction does sound fresh although it´s 27 years old. I still do own the Vinyl Album with the original, later censored artwork.

I added a DW9052 to the collection. This is one comfortable watch, love it!
My casio chronograph (http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/05/15/ad124fe47d97a7a7c476c586c37a89ae.jpg)That's sweet lookin'. I was browsing some of the analog CASIO's at Walmart the other day and they make some really nice ones.

I just registered my G-Shock and they extended the warranty a extra year. There is a section that states this.
"The Casio America Timepiece Extended Warranty Policy stipulates owner be original purchaser of the product at the time of registration to be eligible. Purchases made through third-party resellers are not eligible for extended warranty offers of any kind."
Now I am not 100% sure what they mean. Do they mean this watch must of been purchased directly from Casio for the extended warranty to be valid? I bought the watch through Amazon. Is that considered a third party reseller?

I know. You are not understanding the question though. They did the same for me on both of my G-Shock but it is contingent on you having a receipt (which Amazon does not provide) and it cannot be purchased from a third party reseller. I am trying to find out if buying from Amazon is considered buying from a third party reseller?

for an Amazon receipt, all you need to do is go to your orders, select the order in question, click on order details, then at the top, click on "View or print invoice" it is a legit receipt
I do not think Amazon is a third party seller, but I am not 100% on that

do you like the vibration alert? to me that is cool
I'm pretty sure 3rd party retailers are non authorized retailers that fall into the "grey market" category. Amazon, if they are selling for Casio and not Bob's watch hut, will be an authorized retailer and all warranties will be in place.

I've seen that movie last night. "Source Code" with Victorinox Swiss Army Chrono Classic XLS MT in a crucial role. Perfect choice.

My Gshock MTG910 is beginning to die. The battery that is. The real kicker is that the metal band is on it's last leg, and a replacement metal band is around $100. I've loved this watch for 4 years now, but I might just shelve it and get a new Gshock in a better price range. For the cost of my replacement band I can get a nice watch.

Well mate has far has I know the mtg 900 is the same has yours, and they appear quit a lot on eBay for very good prices, you can buy one to be a donor, don't throw that awesome watch in to the storage, change the strap, and possibly the battery will be good to, and you have a watch for a lot years in front!

That's interesting, I didn't think of that! I googled the MTG910DJ replacement band once and the price floored me so I never gave it a second thought. Shouldn't have surprised me given what the watch itself costs.

While this is a very nice, simplicistic designed watch, I really hope you can slap a new G-Shock around your wrist, soon!
I've been wearing my new Casio for the last week or so. Great basic watch. :tu:I so love that watch, it is exactly what I want, I just wish it was a little more heavy duty and metal rather the plastic.

You can get special adapter pieces that fit the Rangeman. Since it uses screws instead of pins to attach the band, the strap is not drop in. The adapters are made from the same resin material that the watch face is made with and use the existing screws to attach to the watch body. Then you can use the NATO strap.
I found mine as a kit (strap + 2 adapters) on eBay after doing some Google searching.

You can get special adapter pieces that fit the Rangeman. Since it uses screws instead of pins to attach the band, the strap is not drop in. The adapters are made from the same resin material that the watch face is made with and use the existing screws to attach to the watch body. Then you can use the NATO strap.
I found mine as a kit (strap + 2 adapters) on eBay after doing some Google searching.

Good luck resisting. I thought I'd never get one when I first saw reviews and pics. Forgot about it for a while, then had a chance to handle one at a local retailer. My wallet never had a chance.

Casio WS210H-1AV
Been using it daily for work. The alarms are great and like the fact it's solar powered. I've been looking for some G-Shock models, also Tough Solar, but all I've seen are much more expensive and don't have as many functions as this one has.

That is a lot cheaper than a G-Shock, but most of the G-Shocks that are solar, are also atomic (Radio Controlled). However, if you do not need the toughness, then save the money, and buy a replacement with your savings when needed.

And EDC Gear, would you mind stop posting pics of that Citizen? I have already put the note with the model No. away, but every time I see the watch I feel the need to look the model up again and put it on my watchlist...
I recently managed - with the help of my sons teeth - tpo break teh strap on my GWM-5600 so I slapped the first watch I found on my wrist.

I like the army model as a color scheme, but the negative display was, well, a real negative once I saw it in store. Very hard to make out the information on the watch without using the backlight.

I was pretty stoked from the site pics and was really let down in store (which was well lit). If you have a way to check one out before buying, that would be best.

Nice! That strap is a fake NATO, right? Seemed like a NATO because of the two metal thingies near the buckle but it's made of two separate parts, correct?
Just put on the red 5500 for a few hours to fell relief! ;)
The 6600/6900 is a classic series of its own, although I can connect to your preference for squares.

Just tell your kid that it needs to become adult and wise to understand taht the basic 5600 is teh icon of understated cool. Although, remembering my Teenage days, I guess he/she won´t listen anyways... Only good things about that is that he/she cannot say "I´m ölate because my watch was wrong/damaged" - One less discussion topic! ;)

Lowtech you are probably the one to ask. Is there a list of Casio's that have the "wings" on the back of the case like the GD-350?
Like this.
(http://i927.photobucket.com/albums/ad112/ChadV_2010/Watch/DSC04178_zpsbhjttzzd.jpg) (http://s927.photobucket.com/user/ChadV_2010/media/Watch/DSC04178_zpsbhjttzzd.jpg.html)
Those seem a bit different as they appear to be attached to the band. The GD-350 "wings" are stand alone and move freely.
Thanks captain, I feel humbled.
Although there is a search engine (G-shock perfect) where you can check the features you are looking for on a G-Shock, I guess those wings are not listed as a feature.
I can tell you some models I know of that wear those wings.
DW-002
DW-003
DW-9000 and DW-9052
GD-350
IIRC some 7900 models have those, too.
Not all variants of all models did feature those wings and the list is far from complete, I fear - Are you trying to avoid them in future purchases or are you looking for models with those wings?
I know most people either love or hate them.
I´ll have a look at some catalogues to eventually make a longer list.

Grathr still has not finished the destruction of the 6600 and Paul is beyond hope anyways, regarding watches at least.
And second, I am allowed to keep as many as fit in one cas. We still have to argue about teh size of that case, though. I think my wife meant one of the small 6-8 watches cases while I rather was thinking about 2 layererd foam filled expedition cases....

http://forums.watchuseek.com/f74/can-i-dive-30m-wr-watch-empirical-experience-1847322.html
When I was young we all used to dive/swim/snorkel with 30 or 50m WR watches, mostly cheap casios, without any problem, since we did not know any better... :D :D They would at some point break, but that was because of hitting them, opening them to see what was inside etc...
Now, anything with less than 200m WR is just not good enough. :rofl:
my policy/suggestion regarding seawater use is never take anything in the sea you can not afford to lose - lights, watches, spearguns, camera etc.
in many ways, I am happier with a 20 euro watch in the sea, rather than a 10000 euro one, real divers are supposed to have..
when spearfishing or taking pictures the watch gets bumped a lot onto rocks, gets covered in sand, blood...
whether it is accurate to the ms is not a priority :D

Cool! How is that to read in sharp sunlight?
Nice one Zman - do ya know how I know? - I have that same model. I love tide & moon phase watches and recently bought a G9100 "Gulfman" which has it :tu:
I just looked those up - sweet looking! You can't lose with a CASIO. :cheers:Nice one Zman - do ya know how I know? - I have that same model. I love tide & moon phase watches and recently bought a G9100 "Gulfman" which has it :tu:
Nice, I considered the gulfman but think I'll probably go with the 9300 gold black mudman or a gulfmaster. :drool:
I like that!
Although I prefer the EL without the G in the background - How does the bracelet wear?
Nice mate :) I need to try one of those seiko divers! I'm avoiding buying one!

DW-003 by me, you mean?! If you should win the auction (and are interested in a deal like that) we could trade the white DW-003 and the Codename for your Pulsar, maybe? (incuding some payment from me, if necessary)
Hunting on a Wednesday 8) 8) 8)
The DW-002 and DW-6900 have teh same inner case dimensions and there were 3-eyed DW-002 variants which use the same module as the DW-6900.
I´ll have a look at the MR-G and my DW-002/6900/6600 parts and spares.
Looking through this thread doesn't help me with my watch addiction!! :ahhhEvery time I think I've found the perfect watch, I make yet ANOTHER CASIO discovery ::)

Grathr, pretty well. I did not compare it with a proper compass, but it seems to point to the north (I know where it is) and it is very fast.
The weather prediction is also surprisingly close to the real weather. (hot but a bit cloudy)
For a proper temperature reading you need to take it off.
It survived the hunt, and even got wet a few times today (washing hands)
I thought the lens was plastic but it still has no scratches, so it may be glass.
The watch gets a pretty good workout down under! But how will we be able to convert you to G-shocks if this one keeps up so well?! :D
It is an older model with the metal can style case and screwback. It is lighter than I expected. Basic functions.
Needs a bezel.
That's a beauty, how does it feel it the wrist, a screw back one?
For the bezel, it's going to be very hard to get one, take really care of that! And check the Spanish ebay, sometimes they pop up there, they are a very good supplier for Casio vintage parts, but, they are not cheap, but not that expensive! I bought from Spain a set of bezel and strap for my dw-5400 it was for a dw-5700, but same fit, I paid 45€!
Z-man, I never get tired of seeing that moongraph watch :D
I think we need a watch smiley.Agreed! :salute:

That is AWESOME, I love bamboo. What a cool watch :2tu: :drool:
Nice! I loved mine but scratched the crystal in no time :facepalm: I am better off with G-Shocks for everyday use and only wear analogs on Off-days or formal occasions.
Nonetheless, there is a big appeal in 3-hand watches and my dream watch would be a nice IWC Mark (XV) - But I´ll probably never save enough "play money" to be able to afford one.
AFAIK, the model I had only came with a Sapphire coated crystal. anyhow, tehy are harder to scratch, but not totally scratch proof - You can see the scratch clearly in my (closed) sale thread:
http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,61474.0.html
I was gutted and never really wore the watch again. domed, non-recessed crystals are just not for me, I guess...

.SWEET! I have a black Gulfman, it's a super watch :2tu:

My latest, a Mudman multiband 6 (GW9010). Many enhancements over the original mudman :D

I own quite a few watches but it's almost always a Casio on my wrist. If I could afford it, there's probably a good dozen other G's I'd buy!
yes thank you, 6900ms :salute:G 3250 with reverse color screen
Dw-6900MS you say :)
Nice watch, want to grab one of those for my self :)

get one :DEnabler :twak: :twak: >:D
Using my pro trek after giving it a good clean, after two years of service, the buttons were kind hard to push and some gunk around the watch, cleaned some lubrication, they are like new :)I think that's so awesome that you took the time to restore one of your favorite watches instead of just retiring it. That's a nice model there and should bring you many more years of good use :tu: :tu:
It's a job of patience! But it's a joy :)
I do like the sunroad.
And yes, i still offer a GW-6900 rather cheap...

I did wear my Citizen Eco drive yesterday as more formal attire was called to when being guest on a wedding. I´m back to my usual GWM-5600 now.
I can do 55,- € including registered shipment. That is about what I paid for the new bezel and strap alone.
PM me for further details.

Now that's a steal, what a price, if I haven't already have one, that will be mine...
if you are talking about the jaragar then there is more in the "latest watch" thread.

A Co worker found this in the street today, yes laid down on asphalt, with sapphire glass completely broken, and gave it to me, to see if I can do something with this, it's an original 911, sold on Porsche boutiques, and he was kind of lucky to find this very good piece, it's kind of pricey new, there are some lucky people...

It coped pretty well with the cold.
This is what I bought it for really. Easy to read, built in compass and can be operated with gloves on.
I havent figured out the pedometer yet.
Looks like a perfect match to your EDC :tu:

Sorry about your "Trouble." Keep 'em out of the grain. :D

That's a really elegant watch bro!!! :2tu:
I wear my second hand purschased suunto core all black. Bought it for 45 euros all beaten up but still functioning properly. It is already 5 years old but it will probably be on my wrist until it gives up.
The turning ring was already gone and i broke a wrist band. The screen is scratched and full with metal parts from using an angle grinder.
I've never owned a g-shock but i think this watch is also extremely though but without the bulky looks. That's also the reason why i bought it instead of g shock.
And because you can change the battery by yourself. You only need a coin to unscrew the cap and a cr2023 battery.
I hate being dependent on someone else :D

That one has seen some action a lot of "patina" I my self own two suuntos in the past, both core's, and have an observer on the way, and I can tell this watches are huge mate in my opinion, compared to my gshocks! And you're is missing the rotating bezel isn't it?
P. S. Yes it is, sorry miss that on your post!

They are really cheap, I'm kind of afraid to be honest that the watch will fell apart, but since you guys gave thems such good feedback I have a hope :)

Nice watch. Now post some more beach ;) ;) pictures
I put the dz09 on, now..
Left the Casio at home and took the Seiko 5. I'll use the mobile phone for alarms (the main reason I carry the Casio, anyway).
I like the Seiko a lot but it doesn't get much use. Must change that...

Still doing this. Got the bracelet adjusted so it fits better (was way loose, dancing from side to side).
Found some old watches that need some repair (Tressa and Roamer). Will try to get them repaired to start carrying them, too.
:D :D
This thread made me start looking at Omega and Rolex (2nd hand stores).

Make sure your watch is waterproof :DLol, yeah seriously, it sounds like you need a divers watch! Stay safe..

I got an skx a few weeks ago. The orient mako is cheaper and dressier (thinner and more regular looking) if you want to save some money.
:tu: You like it? Is the tide/moon/fish displaying stuff actually of any use?
Yap, I'm thinking on let my citizen go, I need to do some meditation!
:tu: You like it? Is the tide/moon/fish displaying stuff actually of any use?
I like it. :tu: :tu:
Unfortunately due to how it's set up the location can throw some features out.
I have to adjust the tides by + or - GMT which means mentally doing the same to correct the sunrise and sunset times.
The fishing times are general but in the ballpark.
Having an easy hit light with moon age and tides are things that make it a win for me.
Well, if anybody wants to sell an original G-shock, let me know
I wore the 56 today, and went hunting and picking asparagus, which means putting the watch through many thorny bushes.
The watch looks a lot less affected than my hands...
I would have taken a different model, had I known that I was going to pick asparagus - originally I just wanted to do some hunting.
Here's my Deep Blue Master 1000M automatic

I switched out the silicone band it came with for a thick Tech Swiss leather watch band. With such a large case diameter and case thickness, the silicone band allowed the watch to move a bit on the wrist because of the give of the silicone. Now it's much more comfortable. Been wearing it a lot.
Yap, I'm thinking on let my citizen go, I need to do some meditation!
Not that I´m in the market for another watch - and fully ware I still need to compile a list of non yellow G´s for you - - What model are we talking about?!

Fantastic watch. I really love the logo and straight forward dial design. Good call on the strap as well.
Nice. I like leather bands, but if you wear them in the sea they just get destroyed.
Same one as always....

You old timers do not need a watch to tell the time :D :D :D :D
The shadows are enough for you.
My favourite Seiko today, I was going from the back of the house to the font and lifted my hand up to switch on the light. I had never noticed how bright the lume was, very easy to make out the hands.

I DID NOT wear my Casio GD-350 for the first time in a long time, but not by choice. I have a question for you guys. I may be short as I am on the iPad and hate typing on this thing.
I use my GD-350 as a alarm clock. For the first time in years I heard the alarm and re set the time to sleep a extra 20 minutes. I fall asleep, wake up to the new alarm and I hit the button to turn it off. Get ready for work and put my watch on........ Everything is set to new settings. Date is 1-1-2010. Time is randomly set. Vibe is on when I had it off. Tone is on when I had it off, ect, ect. Everything appeared to be randomly set. :think:
It could be a few thing I think. I would say what probably happened is I somehow hit a master reset sequence in my sleepy daze when I reset the alarm time. Next is it could of just been a malfunction of some sort. Third is there is a ghost just smurfing with me and laughing his invisible ass off. :think:
Still wearing the sunroad. It is now about 3 minutes slow, so it loses about 1 minute every 2 months.

That does not sound good. :think:
Is the battery old? Could it be time to change it?
On many chronos you can reset the chrono hands while the movement is in the day/date or hour setting mode by pressing the upper and lower buttons. On some movements you set the one dial in the day and the other in the hour setting mode. try it, should be easy!
It's got a chronometer. Works fine. Only problem: can't reset it to 0. It's the small dial on top, it's 2 clicks behind...... my good old Seiko had a similar problem, but it turned out, as said above, it could be solved. Maybe your push buttons will be linked by the same mechanism?
Nice!
and, next week??

Can you post a pic of teh strap and maybe of a single link? I do have some spare Stainless Casio straps, maybe I can help you.It does not came perfect but will look much much better at the end!
And maybe we can arrange something, that I send you some watches for a polish and you keep one of them or something the like...
I can do teh work myself in theory, but my spare time is running low with our new family member...
I´ll think about it and PM you.
I finally broke down and bought a NATO strap for my Pebble since the rubber band is really annoying me. It is either too loose or too tight. There's no comfortable place to put it, and it is driving me nuts since the watch I wear most often.
Olive brown with orange and white stripes. I think it will look cool.

Our old buddy Dingosrun is trying to convince me that I need a Suunto Traverse (http://www.suunto.com/en-CA/sports-watch-collections/Suunto-Traverse-Collection/). I don't take a lot of convincing really, as I think it's a neat watch, but I don't know how to justify a new watch that probably costs more than all of my current watches combined! :ahhh

Picked this beauty up from JC Penny's on clearance. I couldn't resist the orange band and markings :drool:
I have been a long fan of this module and -this- particular case. I don't plan to ever taking it swimming but I will shower with this watch. CR2025 battery advertised as 10 years but I use my alarms so we'll see :P I have plenty spare batteries.

To be honest I think the current Victorinox mechanical watches are about the biggest bang for your buck Swiss watches around. Their quality is on par with watches costing 2 or 3 times the price. If not better in some cases.

Given the fact that the second hand has it's own dial (instead of being centered with the other hands) I'd estimate that watch somewhere in the 60's ;)Nice!

Out of all my watches I pretty much seam to stick with those two gshocks, 95% of the time that 6900, cause if you don't wear those fancy ones for a couple days then you have to reset everything since some of them are automatic, thus why I really like that 6900, cause well it's solar and also atomic, just wear it and forget about it.. that other one of it starts getting low just wear it on a good day or just stick it in the window for a day,,Marathon GSAR, again!That's so sweet, litterly everything I want but soooo out of my price range! 1-12 number markers rather then dots, a date, 24hr, and best of all automatic and beefy, only other thing I'd rather is 5-55 number markers, and a day/date.

Gift from my father, I enjoy the fit a lot. Large watch but fits well enough that it doesn't feel it!

Great combo!
Bought, well gave the older kid a watch for his grad,, simple invicta dive watch..

I hope so, idk if he’ll ever use it, all he carries is his cell. But if he does all he has to do is shake it a few times then set it cause it’s a self winding and will never need a battery.Bought, well gave the older kid a watch for his grad,, simple invicta dive watch..

Great gift! I'm sure he'll treasure it! :like: :like:
