Watches - another OCD problem
-
I too, am an unashamedly watch (esp. G Shocks) OCD sufferer:
DW-5000 1JF, screwback casing
does hectic approve?
Awesome watch. I got the first one when it came out back in the 80's. Screwback and all. As kids we had fun throwing it around in the school yard or against the brick walls without it taking as much as a scratch. Those were the times!
To my great dismay, I lost the watch. I have the 5600 re-edition with normal caseback today. Thought about getting the 5000 re-edition as it is closer to the original in display and caseback but couldn't justify the double emploi.

Here is my latest ebay find (and a real bargain), a G-Shock Frogman (Men in Rusty Black variant):

Hectic, Your post reminded me that my PP had been taken out of the safe when Kiya was over here, it was sitting here on the table next to me, so photo taken…...
Jesus tapdancing christ… How much is one of those... I know what the approx. answer 'll be, but still... Fuck me that's a nice looking watch...

Yeah I was thinking it'd cost a couple of milles… Damn it... The more I read this thread, and the more watches I see, the less I like my current one... But then, it's just some 'cheap' thing to use at work... And since I do physical work, it gets a lot of bumps and scratches; it's basically abused beyond and I should feel lucky there's no such thing as an Amnesty International for watches.

I thought you were joking about how I had me hands up cow's arses all day whilst wearing my watch…
But no: nowt fancy... I just do physical labour in a depot... Unloading trucks, responsible for the beverage dept. (alcoholic and non-alco) of a local warehouse. Not for the lazy, I can tell you that... But I love it... Hard, honest work...

Stick the Patek in a cow! Nice! ROTLFMAO.
$2k for that watch even ten years ago is a frickin' super steal. Congrats. If the movement is in good shape you would bay 6-10k for that now, possibly more if it was a rare model. A new Calatrava (not quite as nice as this one) costs around $15k.

And the Roli is already nice. But this is a beauty. 50's Calatrava?
