        I like that camo one way more than I would've expected, but that is a lot of money for G Shock.

          For a watch like the G-shock, I think plastic is a better case material. Lightweight, durable, cheaper, and the thing is already fugly so it's not like it changes the aesthetic. YMMV, $0.02, etc

          Think it, be it.

            They make a similar blue ti Gshock that’ve drooled over for almost a year now. Really well done.

                  Such a great watch.  Glad you are putting it through its paces.

                      The Rolex Daytona, GMT Master, Sky Dweller, and possibly the Submariner. I don't know about the Yacht Master.

                      The Patek Philippe Nautilus and also the Aquanaut.

                      I don't know about the Royal Oak, but I think that some models are scarce.

                          As for AP, in Tortola & St Thomas we saw quite a few of the more complicated ROs but only one “base” model. The dealers were apparently supposed to limit one to a person but I imagine money talks.

                            Monochrome are speculating about what Rolex will release at Baselworld. I'm not a huge fan of the Crown, but this Milgauss is awesome.

                            Of course, there's a question whether Baselworld will happen this year. Watches and Wonders (formally SIHH) has just been cancelled in light of the Coronavirus outbreak.

                              Weird to render the bezel in "10-minute" units

                              Think it, be it.

                                What's the point of the bezel only going to 6?

                                    I think that the concept Milgauss is a throwback to this one, which also has the ten minute scale on the bezel.

                                      So, the vintage one I like. The proportions on the new model just seem really off.

                                        Yes it is an unimaginative superimposition of modern Rolex sport watch aesthetic onto what apparently was an unpopular watch in its time and collectable in retrospect. Love how they predict an antimagnetic movement, but the display caseback prediction is ludicrous.

                                        Think it, be it.

                                          The only Milgauss I really like is the 116400GV, with the green crystal and the orange accents. This one is just ok, and as one might guess, the bezel bugs me.
