I have a few G-Shocks, I love them. They are one of only two style watches that I haven't destroyed. The other being an old LL Bean watch, about 15 years old, back when they still came with a screw down crown, I broke the glass once, but I was using it like a dumbass.
Exactly! Mechanical is much better IMHO. No battery, just wind and go. ;)Quote:

Was she cute? ;)
Was a He, and I don't remember what his name was, or what he looked like. Odd how I just have a vague memory of the hunters, but I remember the hunts, (what happened). Never wanted to guide women one on one, but guided several Husband and wife parties.
Seiko Automatic Dive Watch. Bought mine over 30 years ago. No batteries, no winding, can withstand everything I've put it through.

Is that it? $500.00 for a watch?:eek: For that price it should come out in the woods and fix dinner for me. :rolleyes:
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to much for a watch! I'll keep my sundial ring :D
Hey! I have one of those, too. Pretty cool ain't they?
Love it bro,
I don't!!! Every time I put the stick through my wrist it hurts and bleeds a lot....
(head slap) Doh!
If the sundial was on a compass, it would be the ultimate daytime - outdoors watch. That way it would point north automatically.
Actually, it would tell time no matter which direction you were heading.:rolleyes:
iv always wanted a navy seal dive watch (i currently wear a movado , museum imagine seeing someone out in the bush with that lol) anyone know where i can get one (preferably in winnipeg)
The Navy Seals that I've met wore a wide variety of watches. Seiko, Casio, Rolex ....
