      Yep....No idea which. I bought it in Japan with Haraki's help, solar powered....

          Nice Pepsi @RobeOfTheMagi

          I reinstated mine as a travel watch with a strap to make it look less flash 🙂

            @Bridger Old SKX Models are just lovely.

            This mod is what got me interested in mechanical watches:

                Do you still have this and how have you liked it after having it for a minute? Been looking at the metric star and the metric retro dial. Saw yours and loved the look of it. Thank you for any insight

                  @ZackB I love these watches. I have 4 of them currently and I’m certain I’ll get more.

                      A new automatic metric just dropped this week. Def worth a look.

                        The old seikos in here inspired me to upload my favorite watch, ever. I picked this up a few years ago when my ancient turtle prove unsalvageble, and haven’t worn any other watch, since. Never had a citizen, before, but it’s been crazy reliable, and who knows how long it’s been kicking’

                        The monocoque case is crazy comfortable.

                          It will probably never stop kickin' @sabergirl

                              I'm thinking about getting a Casio DW-6900U-1. It's one of the coolest G-Shocks, in my opinion. However, I do not really need one, since I have the predecessor of the GW-M5610U-1. Which is arguably the better watch.

                                Okay, here it is: DW-6900U. Only very little has changed from the '90s version.

                                  This watch shouldn’t be $2k. I wish it wasn’t priced ridiculously.

                                      Excellent. I’ll bet you could get ante bezel for that if you wanted.

                                        Interesting thought @Matt. I haven't worn it for decades. It really needs a happy home.
