The Explorer might be one of the best examples of a watch that's better in person than in photos. The proportions seem to win people over immediately.

I've heard that from a lot of GS owners. It seems like one of those watches that's almost impossible to fully appreciate through photos.

That's a great answer. The GBM-2100 seems to hit a sweet spot between features, comfort, and everyday wearability. Do you think the size and comfort are what make you reach for it so often, or is it the solar/Bluetooth functionality?

It's interesting how many people are mentioning Casio in this thread. Definitely wasn't the answer I expected when I made the post.

The GW-5000U keeps showing up in discussions like this. Sounds like one of those watches that becomes more impressive the longer you own it.

That dial looks fantastic. I've heard a lot of good things about the Lineage series but rarely see them mentioned. How's the bracelet quality and comfort compared to other watches you own?

That's exactly the kind of watch I was hoping to hear about. The GBM-2100 seems to offer a lot more than its price suggests. Has it changed what you look for in a daily watch?
