      Love that there's a less intimidating watch thread! I've just seen this for the first time. I'm a little obsessed with watches and have spent the last few years getting into them and buying, trading, etc. It's a beautiful hobby no matter what your budget.

              @goosehd Thanks mate! Already on that one! Just glad there's one for people getting into, it's so nice that people can ask advice as there's a lot of pitfalls in watch collecting.

                @Matt I had it custom made for me. Two of my favorite colors!

                  I also picked up the Mission to Mars Moonswatch but waiting on a better strap before posting that guy - hate the nato style strap it comes on so bulky and cheap looking.

                    @Mr-Linz I didn’t know you could custom order G-Shocks. Is that something new?

                      @goosehd It's not OEM, that would be amazing! I'd get so many made lol. There's a whole community online of people who customize watches, normally Seiko's and Casio's. This one was done by a fella in Singapore who does this as a hobby, he's very talented. He's called David Tan Chee Yong and his handle is gshock_art on insta if you're curious...

                        @Mr-Linz Very cool and something I’ll look into…I’ve had a few G-shocks over the years and this could be a fun project.

                        Thank you!

                          @goosehd Dude it's a lot of fun! There's so many way to go. It's a rabbit hole. To get specific and overly detailed - I prefer a smaller watch, I have a 6 and 3/4 inch wrist and mostly wear 40mm and less watches. So I specifically wanted the ladies size casioak (which is still pretty large at 43mm) but feels better on my wrist. So I had to find a guy who could repaint both hands and indices as the female version has nasty silver or gold ones. This dude was the only person I could find that could do it. Like I said... Rabbit hole!

                            Here’s the Moonswatch I was talking about with the upgraded rubber strap… !58817B82-8174-4CC0-BCD0-6C9D74BC9265.jpeg 97099266-5DBE-4DB6-8EA0-19A918C7E0CE.jpeg

                              Man, everyone hates on that stock strap. I love it. It’s got a Shark Leash vibe.

                                @Matt It's too bulky for my taste. Also the OEM white velcro will look nasty very quickly.

                                        @Memphisakers ok ok!! I actually could use a watch roll. Maybe a box. Not quite sure. But I’ve got three watches and they just sort of hang out in my closet “unhoused.”

                                        In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...
