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

[Matt]

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

[goosehd]

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

[Kasi]

@Matt @goosehd
What you guys think
I was thinking the same wasn’t to sure about the G-SHOCK

But this what I like

[goosehd]

Solid picks!

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.

The GA-1000 is a wonderful G-shock too. perfectly size case and so comfortable.

@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.

[Kasi]

@goosehd

I did notice the discount on their site
Signing up, I shall do that

@jordanscollected nice idea. Like it

@Matt thanks for the tips

Am also gonna pop into watch shop
Get get feel of these, see which looks best with Mollie…
Thanks

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.

[jordanscollected]

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

[Matt]

If you want to pair it with a mollie check out the new one with a NATO style strap. 3 colors…

Got myself a Forerunner 245 for this weekend’s marathon. Never had a smart watch before, and never really saw the point, but it was super cheap in the Amazon spring sale. It’s fun having all the extra stats. I did a super easy run to test it out and it seems pretty rock solid. Cool little thing to have.

[Kasi]

To many g-shock to choose from

Am thinking colour got to match the Mollie

Something like this

If in doubt, go for the Master of G series.

I personally prefer the digital G's, and Frogman is my favorite so far

[Matt]

Love that one Mo. that’s what I have.

[jordanscollected]

@nickname I love the look of the frogman, but i fear they are expensive beyond reason.

[nickname]

Yes, that's for sure, but you can get a lightly used one for much less. This one cost me less than USD$400 if I remember correctly.
