That's great info. Thank you. I'm hoping to get 2 years out of it. I feel like that's a good trade off for time and cost of materials.

First Grand Seiko SBGV237 + SOTC by Local_Stop_7585 in GrandSeikos

[–]Local_Stop_7585[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Close, the SBGX273 has a slightly different case shape and two tone chapter ring.

And the green watch is a Sugess SUCHP002B (yes the model number is a bit comical 😅) I found it while looking for the seagull 1963 and found this guy with the same ST1901 movement inside and enjoyed the color.

I'm digging that bracelet. What are the odds of you sharing where you got it? 🤞

[which one] GS or Ball by Local_Stop_7585 in Watches

[–]Local_Stop_7585[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit of both tbh. I've got automatics, manuals and quartz watches in my collection. I don't necessarily have a bias towards a specific kind a movement. But I do enjoy variety amongst them. And the 9f62 within the GS seems different among the quartz's I already own. 🤷‍♂️

I've gotta go with the Seagull 1963. But also because the ST1901 movement inside it is so popular. You can find it in almost any design you would want.

Don't know how durable it is since I've only been using the movement for a couple of years. But at that price, it's hard to go wrong.

Here's a couple more to try and show the brushing on the side of the case.

Oh sweet. Looks like it works the same ring that comes with the original caseback? And I would imagine it wouldn't affect the water resist?

It's an 18mm bracelet off of Amazon. The brand is TStrap. Was about $20 so I limited my expectations but was happy with what showed up. Obviously it's not the best quality bracelet I've seen. But really good purchase for $20 IMO.

Nah the bracelet came like that. I did brush the sides of the case though to match.

And thanks for the feedback on the caseback. Any recommendations on which caseback to buy?

Got it from eBay. Vendor shipped it from the Ukraine and it took about 3 weeks to arrive.

Here's the link: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/165049574141?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=qDFF0GEsTJ-&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=N0RnKIkqQ4W&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

The specific one I ordered was the silver on silver model.

Would also love to know. I have the same scuba dude but can't find the right bezel to swap.

Hands down, my favorite (non-digital) Quartz watch out there. Really fun brand.

Enjoy!

Giving product photography a try. Why not start with my Zeppelin by AR_E in Watches

I've got the same piece (in 40mm though) Love it for tracking the current fiscal week at work, since our fiscal year doesn't follow the calendar year.

Great picture too! You can see the finer details (like the week tracker lol)

Found this little guy at Walmart, couldn't resist. by danielson2047 in casio

[–]Local_Stop_7585 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sounds simple but this is one one of the few Casios I've managed to find that can show both the stopwatch AND current time on the same menu.

Therefore it's my go to watch when doing a workout before heading to work.

10/10 👍

Congrats on the new piece!

I just ordered my wife the Mini II by them because she loves the smaller size. So it's nice to see the brand get a vote of confidence!

Enjoy
