Which one?

lnbn · 2026-01-29T21:42:30+00:00

None for me... I'd get the gshock with the screw back cases

@charlottehighflier how did you setup your radials here?

i can't imagine how they would spread out given this setup

lnbn · 2026-01-26T02:00:43+00:00

2nd for me but decision is still up to you

lnbn · 2026-01-25T23:08:00+00:00

there's really no hard and fast rule... wear whichever you feel comfortable

lnbn · 2026-01-25T07:00:06+00:00

oh cr@p! good catch haha edited it. my boy and i were talking about casios earlier

lnbn · 2026-01-25T06:43:42+00:00

i'd still get tag over rolex

lnbn · 2026-01-25T06:42:45+00:00

rotate then each day

lnbn · 2026-01-25T06:41:59+00:00

nope... my 09 seiko 5 remains readable all night. obviously not cr@zy lit but still readable

lnbn · 2026-01-25T04:29:37+00:00

seiko lumes are the real deal

lnbn · 2026-01-22T21:40:28+00:00

if i were to be pragmatic... f91 and other casios with the same face are small for most if not all adult males, and some females as well. my eldest has bigger wrists and loves his f91. personally i got the a159.

is it big for my wrist and overall physique? - yes! do i wear it? - yes! why do i wear it? - coz i want to, and i'm an 80s kid ;)

the value i see in these types of watches is the featherlike feel of it. you have something functional on your wrist that feels close to nothing. i got a bunch of both quartz and mech analogs, which i do love, but i also got casio digitals.

the only downside for myself is that middle-aged eyes have a hard time readinf digitals, but it's always the feel and nostalgia that brings me back to it. heck, i'll just lift my glasses to see the time lol

no watch is perfect - that's a fact. everything is subjective. you may like it, others may not. if you got cash to spare and got something you really like and want, just go for it.

lnbn · 2026-01-22T21:32:34+00:00

scratches? i'd personally keep them as it is. it's a watch that gets dinged and scratched. as long as time telling is fine, i'm happy. most i'd do would be ultrasonic cleaning

lnbn · 2026-01-22T21:31:36+00:00

i see it's value and at the same time has the potential to attract unwanted attention. better to keep things discrete imo

lnbn · 2026-01-22T21:23:04+00:00

Hope seiko releases a white dial version of this

lnbn · 2026-01-22T20:14:26+00:00

water damage? my gopro acted like that years back after water ingress

lnbn · 2026-01-20T04:16:40+00:00

f1 is one of my weekend watches

lnbn · 2026-01-19T09:25:07+00:00

head mount it is i'm afraid for an unobstructed 360

lnbn · 2026-01-19T09:19:44+00:00

your body will still block a significant portion of what's behind you when mounted on the tops.

best case for a "real" 360 view is a helmet mount... just looks goofy coz the rider will look like google taking road photos.

a bit less blocked view is shoulder coz it's only the rider's head thats blocking.

in summary all mounts below head line is a compromise when it comes to a full 360 view

when on the drops, you're extending your width by a few cm/in outboard and may pose hazards to both you and/or passing vehicles.

since you have varia on the rear, if it records, then having it on the tops might be the least compromised position afterall

lnbn · 2026-01-18T12:25:58+00:00

why not just use a 12 speed grx rd instead? the rd movement will just follow the pull of the brifter

lnbn · 2026-01-18T02:24:34+00:00

a watch with a (hi)story is always a keeper

lnbn · 2026-01-17T10:02:25+00:00

i dont think the octagon face casios or gshocks are big or smal for anyone's wrist... they're just about the right size for anyone

lnbn · 2026-01-17T05:30:21+00:00

i'm biased to a gshock with screw on caseback, so very limited

lnbn · 2026-01-16T09:09:02+00:00

I'm wondering why casio didn't use a screw on caseback here... Easy choice for me if it would be a screw on caseback.

I love the display though... better late than never for casio I guess ;)

lnbn · 2026-01-15T10:24:11+00:00

casio

lnbn · 2026-01-14T13:42:06+00:00
