Horological Meandering

I 'splashed' out on a few G shocks recently..

due to lifestyle changes - more hiking, trail walking, etc., and almost zero socializing/dining with friends, as this rather contagious virus does not differentiate between friend or foe. Many have been caught out because they gathered with 'friends'.

Anyway, I like these because their analog hands are easy on the eyes and they are so convenient to use. If you don't own a G shock I suggest you stay away, as they can become addictive and may divert your attention away from their more prestigious mechanical counterpart.

Cheers

I love your G Shocks and I love mine too. My most recent is the Borneo Toad Frogman. It’s a fantastic watch. So great looking too.

CasioOak is a nice choice

It's a tough and versatile quartz, with the fair price of such a movement 😉 I was looking for the steel one 😎

Yes they are a value proposition and a nice gadget to have on the wrist sometimes. ;)

These times have to change, soon. Back to our beloved mechanical watches! ;)

They’re great for what they’re designed for they’re tough and robust and capable of taking the knocks. I especially like the casioaks (I have a couple) as I find them quite smart as well as tough and the all black version can easy Be dressed up and worn w...

I started years ago and now have nearly 30 of them - it can become addictive.... First I went for some bright colors to match dress style and cars. Later on I discovered the range of MRG G-Shock which are incredible for gardening and other heavy duties. A...

Thank you.

Which one is your favorite fernando?

By: =RWK= : January 5th, 2021-21:55

I like mine because of the dual 24 h dials and that it's solar/radio-controlled. Best, -- Richard.

Hi Richard

By: fernando : January 5th, 2021-22:14

I like the Bluetooth phone connect models which make them easy to set via the phone. Solar power is also very useful for charging the battery. I like both of these features which are present in the two models in the first picture. fernando

Thanks fernando
