I think the G shock M5610 is the most sensible of the DW G Shocks. I've got one.. love it.. super light, great module, got to be the ultimate Zombie apocalypse watch with the Casio capacitors legendary life and if you had a couple of spares it would do until your grandson had built a reasonable civilisation on Eigg or whatever island you'd end up on.

I did get to try one of the $4k MRG ones on in the flesh and I absolutely understand why people buy them. When Casio turn on the quality they are as good as anyone out there.. awesomely beautiful watch that is also low key enough to avoid mugging
Edit.. I see @wjwildridge82 is wearing an MR-G today awesome.. what a lovely watch. I never understood why people would spend such on a G shock until.I saw it in the flesh.

1968 Marlin. Sometimes runs for nearly 6 hours!

 

Morning all.

 

Black uniform so bit of colour today with the orange Seiko Atlas.

Morning

 

Morning all this one for me (at the moment anyway)

 

This one for me again today! ....

 

 

Why are the inner numbers reversed? Perhaps someone knows

 

Late 1960s DOXA.
Cal: 104 (Eta 2406), 21 jewel.

 

Good morning......

 

That’s is really nice , I didn’t realise they did a gmt , thanks for sharing a beautiful watch

 

Good morning 👍

 

Good morning, that's the school run ticked off. Accompanying me today is this early Citizen quartz from July 1973 ...

This is Citizens first quartz watch with the 8811 18 jewel movement. It's an electro-mechanical movement with a 16kHz quartz crystal which gets the balance motoring along at 32 beats per second. Over on the dial, that's 16 ticks per second which results in an impressive sweep.
There's not too many of these around, production was for only around 6 months in 1973. This one is all original, with the original bracelet.

 

Beautiful.

This today.

 

 

Nice watch!

 

Not sure if Babybel counts as an artisan cheese but that's all I had in to chop onto my cheese omelette!

Meanwhile, keeping spiffing time as expected from a Miyota 9 series auto:

Worn for a bit, on the winder for a bit, still just 3 seconds fast.

HAGD

 

Babybel as artisan is about as close Trump is to a Peacemaker 🤪

 

 

Seiko 7t92.

 

Beautiful Pulsar for me today, courtesy of a giveaway by the very generous @SQ-whiff

 

Good morning. 😊
Retro style day. 🤖

 

The Orient 70th anniversary diver which has a bronze like finish that will not patina , so I had a patinated strap made the-orient-70th-anniversary-limited-edition

 

Morning all. This watch makes me happy

 

I think the T100 silver is the best bang for buck best finished quartz watch out there at the moment. Absolutely gorgeous. I bought one last month paid about £300 including shipping and customs. The polishing is claimed to be from the legendary monks of Grand Seiko on their Zaratsu machines and I'm pretty certain it is as claimed. The dial is extraordinary especially when you consider its solar powered and the indicies sort of float over it giving this depth to the dial.
Bluetooth multi band solar powered perpetual calandet even auto adjusts DST for you.. it's the watch for ADHD person as the hand automatically aligns exactly with the indicies as it ticks you can also micro adjust the date so it's lways central.

Unfortunately I have given mine to Mrs Victim as I had ro rescue my Alpinist which had been in her posession for 12 months and I'm not sure she can be trusted with a clockwork percision instrument....

 

Afternoon all.

 

Hi Lou.. does that Yem have a 19mm lug? I know some of them have and it's put me off in the past. They do make some lovely remakes of their classic divers and I've always had a soft spot for their Andretti chronograph

 

 

This today, with the new OTF clasp.
