Watches - another OCD problem

I thought that you'd have gone for something a bit more tactical @DougNg!
On that front, here's the IWC Top Gun Double Chronograph in Ceratanium, which falls into the none so black category.

I've seen Zenith do the date window cutout differently such that a bit of the chapter ring tach is left intach-ed rather than rendering the markers on the date window.
Love the case (especially the radial brushing contrasting the polished flanks) but find the dial to be a bit busy.
Kinda dig the TG too.

I’m REALLY not in the market for a new watch but if I were an El Primero would top the list.

I want to like that IWC, but the specs just irritate. 21mm strap, so aftermarket options are limited. 16.7mm thick, which is just huge. A screw down crown, but only 6 bar water resistance; that's just badly done. And why, I ask, does it have a movement decorated with Cotes de Geneve and perlage when it has a solid case back?
A titanium/ceramic case sounds fascinating, though. I wonder if IWC will roll out colors other than black…

That wasn't necessary. Not to mention tacky. Pun Patrol alert!

Casio are bringing out a titanium version of the G-Shock. It's got a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating, which makes it black and imbues it with a rubber like texture. The mineral glass of the original has also been upgraded to sapphire. So has the price, to ¥150,000, about $1400.

This is my cheap $50 g-shock that I bought 3-4 yrs ago. Still going strong. Not sure how long batteries last on these though

I've had this one for a few years and it's my favorite square G-Shock

It's a Japan exclusive but it's not difficult to find in the West.
I've swapped out the bezel and band for a standard set for a more toned down look
It's lighter than a standard square because of the titanium caseback, and the alarm is louder because it's a thinner caseback.
A good video on it:

You guys are all sporting the fancy BMW version G-shocks. Mine is the AMC Gremlin of G-shocks

…if not before the plasticizer is out of the plastic. I belief steel lasts longer
