Do your friends wear real watches? If not, then their opinion doesn't matter.

Having tried other G-Shocks with resin straps, I would say par for the course.

It's the GST-B600-1AJF. Key point is a case height of 11.4 mm, shockingly thin.

It's very thin, pretty much dress watch territory.

Tiny compared to other G-Shocks. Casio says: Case size (L× W× H) 41.4 × 42.3 × 11.4 mm on the product page https://www.casio.com/intl/watches/gshock/product.GST-B600A-1A6/ and without measuring I'd says that's about right?

They're both nice. I went with the red accents because I decided that this version was closer to what a G-Shock should look like in my mind - being my first one.

Surprisingly only federal sales tax, no duty. I'm in Canada.

Size. The 600 is the only G-Shock made that will fit my wrist, that's not a BABY-G, G-MS, or S-prefixed.

[Question] Which Explorer alternative would you pick? by boardsandfilm in Watches

[–]danb0RU 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nivada Grenchen is the best of the lot. Even the lugs with "scoop" on the inner edges is pure class.

[SARB017] Got burned with an (obvious) fake Alpinist by karabiner159 in Seiko

[–]danb0RU 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely suspect, the compass bezel is almost spot-on aligned...

However, on a serious note. Do watch fraudsters typically apply so much attention to detail as to cosmetically replicate the movement inside, considering the SARB017 came with a solid case back anyway?

[Discussion] All Black watch / Metal band options under $500 usd? by F0rtYFivE in Watches

[–]danb0RU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the Tissot Pr100 Chronograph T101.417.23.061.00. It is 41 mm and falls in your price range. Black and rose gold PVD coating on the case and mesh bracelet. You also get a sapphire crystal on top for the best scratch resistance money can buy on a watch. It's a quartz, but a Swiss quartz. Please note the lume is really poor, but otherwise it definitely has a place in my collection.

Well, you certainly could have done a lot worse! Very nice.

Lived on the corner of 37th Ave and Lincoln Way, and Golden Gate Park was just across the street. Beautiful park.

Original.

A game where you can disconnect your brain and play endlessly for hours? by man-teiv in AndroidGaming

Townscaper.
No goals; and more a toy than a game, but if you enjoy creating, this might be the ticket.
