I have been wearing G shocks for around 25 plus years. I wear them for about 8 years and when the battery wears out I buy a new one. I know I should just buy a new battery but these watches are inexpensive. I hear the new ones have a much shorter battery life. I have worn those swimming in the ocean with no problems. I have dropped them countless time without damage. I know you could throw one and not damage it. I use them to time my runs, intervals and as an alarm clock. The watch can't be beat.

I have an expensive watch and no it's not a Chinese counterfeit bought off the Internet. I wear it when I have to get dressed up for something; other than that it's the Casio. The Casio G shocks cost about $125 now with older models going for a lot less.  They look great and have a lot of functions that an athlete would want.

The white one in the first post is a direct decendant of the original that I use. I like it and it's easy to figure out the functions. I'm sure it comes in black and it's a flat black. (What's this shit about I like my watches black like my men?)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the G Shock Eminem is wearing is a limited edition model that sold for about $800 a couple years ago.  Nowadays I'm betting they're worth a couple thousand $.

I wear small digital surf watches. I need them for work, I have three separate timers on them that I use frequently.
I don't like heavy watches or watches with a lot of extra crap. I just need the time, date, chrono, and timers/alarms.
The one I like best is made by Freestyle, its $100 and the band is not removable, so I have to buy a new one every
damn time the band breaks, which is about once a year.

Taking the cell phone out of the pocket to take a look is a pain in the ass compared to looking at a watch I think. Also if I have the phone like on the shelf I usually ask someone what time it is, and I hate people who keep asking the time and don't bother to buy a watch.  ;D

Has anyone noticed the crazy amount of counterfeit Breitling, Tags and Rolex's being sold on the internet to dopes thinking they are getting a steal?  I was at the jewelers getting my wife's jewelry repaired and the jeweler was talking about all the "high end" Chinese rip offs coming in for repair. He said they all bought them out of a trunk of a car or the Internet thinking they are the real deal.  You can't get a Breitling for $800 bucks.
