    @Matt , speaking of the Moonswatch, I'm on the hunt for a Mission to Saturn, now...

          Was finally time for a new strap and bezel on my square. It used to make me laugh that guys on the watch blogs would say there G-Shock was on its fifth set of resins.. I’ve wore this GW-M5610 every working day on a roof for 9.5 years and only just wore through the strap keeper 😂
          I’ve had and still have much nicer watches but what a piece of kit a G-Shock is. And square and only square.

            My attempt at making a keeper for this was a resounding failure, so I bit the bullet....

                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:

                          New Brew Metric Star…

                          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.

                              @Matt awesome man, all I needed to know. Been in the market and your metric star caught my eye. Thank you

                                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.
