Never broke one

survived being in a machine shop erryday

What kind of chemicals did you use tho

also been banged on more shit than I can count

just machining oil

I wore mine in goddamn house fires

are you getting dangerous chemicals on your skin or something

Not dangerous to me

But to plastics, yeah

because if you’re getting nasty shit on your watch that shouldn’t be touching your skin

Also theyll take gettin hit with hot grease

I mean some of the stuff is dangerous to my skin but ykno

Im tuff

the only polymer on the outside of my g shock is the superficial plastic on the outside and the band

Might just get one of the slimmer gshocks then

They have a very tough one that looks like yours

my watch for reference

Its based off the original gshock design

that chewed up band around the glass feels like rubber or something

everything else is metal

It doesnt look fucked up either

I dont like wearing mine outside of work cause its beat to hell

I wear mine everywhere because it’s sentimental but it looks like shit

Only reason I didnt insta buy a gshock is because of how bulky they are, had a similar style watch before and would get it caught on everything

Reaching my hands into tight spaces

@Toby Tobacco buy the original g shock there like 60$ and slim

I do have to take mine off when I make my bed because it’s against a wall but I haven’t been inconvenienced otherwise

Its just the better version of your current watch

Yeah I think thats what I'll buy

@fjogert i know exactly what your talkin about

And at that point it seems worth getting the nato straps, or straps with a decent compass on it

Theres lots of compatable stuff with the g shocks

Mid teir daily use i reccomend em

I know there are a billion different g-shocks with a billion different features
Anything neat the most basic one does? I know there is one with a barometer and one with a thermometer. I'm almost certain there is one with a compass.

mine has a thermometer and a compass

I saw the bearing marks on yours but didnt see the actual compass

Ohhh

Now I notice it

the second hand becomes a compass

you push the big side button
