      @Nik if you don’t mind had some time with the watch. Could you let me know about battery life (GPS use and daily wear, given you wear it 24/7) and screen visibility in sunlight?

        Screen visibility is fantastic. I think the old OLED issues have been fixed. Battery life so far is as expected, with 23 days estimated. But I'll let you know in a week how it goes. I've currently got the display as always on.

          I received this watch when I bought my Fat-Boy way back when. Forgot I had it, found it in the garage.

                  @Kasi You may have better luck if you ask about the watch in the watch thread and give us an idea of your price range.

                  Here are the two watch threads:

                    Price up £250

                    Because I would not mind if it breaks

                    But don’t want that Hugo or Armani crap.

                    Some thing that sticks with Iron Heart gear well

                      G-Shock. It’s what The Boss wears. Unbreakable and tons of options in your price range.

                        I too would suggest G-Shocks for your price range which has a great variety of styles to chose from. @Matt beat me to the suggestion 🙂

                                Those are all excellent options. They are extremely addictive though thanks to their surprising quality compared to the price point. I have #2 in the silver version and it’s my favorite. Honestly I’d be surprised if you didn’t end up with all of those.

                                      @kasi Pro tip: Get on the G-Shock mailing list. I get offers weekly on new releases and I think the first watch purchased gets a sign up discount code.

                                          Mo, You will love G-shocks resin bands and how well comfortable they wear. even the larger watches feel light on your wrist and the bands just soften perfectly you will forget you are wearing it.

                                            This GX-56BB is my daily driver. It’s their largest case I believe, and is solar. Simple but badass for around $150.
