Just got myself a couple, nice rugged watches, perfect for the muscular man, thought this one would be good for summer.Any other iron warriors wear them?

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.

I never wear watch.
Very uncomfortable.


Until I become a president and state offers me +100k watch, my wrist stays bare  8)

Not a huge fan of the G-Shock as I only really wear a watch in work and so I prefer a bit of classy chrome. This is what I'm wearing these days:

If they made this with the blue face being a phantom black it would be sick.

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 remember when they claimed the glass was indestructible and my friend bought one and decided to open it and straight away shoot the glass with my air rifle. it was wrecked but g shock did replace it no questions.

The watch from the Spacebound video is the DW6900MS-1, as a side point check out sasha Greys ass in the jeans when she walks to the toilet  :o
