    What watch you're wearing?

    I've been on a G-Shock jag for a while now. Wearing the GBX100NS-1 off and on for a few days. The negative MIP display is stunningly great outdoors... But around the house, especially in the evenings, the negative display, even with MIP tech, is a relatively poor choice for good readability...

    What did you use your flashlight for today?

    18650 lights are my favorite lights, by far. Zebras, Hank's, Anduril interface is great, too.

    What did you use your flashlight for today?

    Looking for a very tiny screw that I dropped. Even in normal daylight, I find that with a powerful flashlight, it can be much easier to find a tiny screw on the tile floor and especially on a rug.

    What watch you're wearing?

    While I'm at it, I might as well mention this one, as Fedex delivered it today! Since Casio started making analog G-Shocks with steel bezels and bracelets... I've really admired them. Some, though, were overpriced in my view. Not long ago, Casio in their infinite wisdom crafted one of these...

    What watch you're wearing?

    The bezel is needed to attach the strap. And the bezel covers the majority of the buttons, so... I don't know.

    What watch you're wearing?

    I like the red silicon strap on the yellow G-Shock so much that I've got another red silicone inbound to use -on occasion- with my black GAB2100. Red and black is a favorite color combo. Seems the Chinese have loved that color combo... for a while now! 😆

    What watch you're wearing?

    For my entire watch wearing lifespan I've worn relatively standard, serious watches. It was only a couple of years ago that I broke down and got the G-Shock GAB2100 in black. Having both the Tough Solar and Bluetooth time sync features makes the watch so easy - always charged, always accurate to...

    Tyler, East Texas - anyone here from there?

    I have checked city-data. Some good info there. But unfortunately the forum posts are old. A few at least 2 years old and most are much older.

    Tyler, East Texas - anyone here from there?

    It looks like we're going to relocate to East Texas, to a suburb just outside/south of Tyler, TX. I know the humidity is going to be a factor to contend with. Nice homes can be had for modest prices. For a retired couple living a quiet life - how is life around Tyler?

    Thanks, Chauncey. I think so too. Understatedly so.

    What watch you're wearing?

    Variety is, indeed, the spice of life. Most recently and surprisingly (as I mentioned earlier in this thread) I bought the least expensive watch in my collection - a $50 Casio. It hasn't left my wrist since opening the box and has not varied even one second in time keeping over the week I've...

    What watch you're wearing?

    I'm also one who eschews chronographs unless they are designed for quick and easy readability at a glance. Tissot did a good job on the readability of your chrono. I find chronos like the panda styles to be relatively poor for easy time readability. Contrasting sub-dials are a distraction from...

    What watch you're wearing?

    I have a few watches that I got from Jomashop, and have returned a couple just because I preferred not to keep. All transactions with them went well.

    What watch you're wearing?

    At long last... a "classic" Casio square-ish digital watch lands on my wrist. I figured that whatever my watch collection contained, a classic Casio square of one variation or another needed to be a part of it. This one (B640WD-1AV) is a little bit updated from the original design, fairly...

    Looking great, man. I like that!

    What watch you're wearing?

    Thank you. It was an easy pick up for $50. It's certainly about time I finally joined the Casio square digital gang.

    What watch you're wearing?

    I've been quite content with my stable of watches for a long time. Nothing else I've seen has made me want to reach for my wallet. But funny thing... I recently decided that a budget-sensible, Casio, square-ish digital watch (somewhat along the lines of the classic Casio square watches) was one...

    What watch you're wearing?

    Kinda been sportin' divers lately... Marc designed this one running a Miyota 9015. A favorite movement of mine.

    NW Arkansas - any of you living there?

    It’s unfortunate how political matters can so cloud a place that a person would otherwise love to be. We’re not happy with how the whole west coast has devolved. I was raised in the SF Bay Area, loved living in Lake Oswego OR, and Camas area of Washington State. Such beautiful places.

    What watch you're wearing?

    I've been thinking about getting one of those Casio digital watches that sell in the $30-$50 range with a steel bracelet. Is there a particular model of those that is the "hot ticket"? A168W or B650 perhaps?
