What time is it? Watches and horology

It’s beautiful isn’t it? And probably saw service in ww2 too. Incredible that it has lasted in that condition.

These look great, would compliment the gold sneakers perfectly

For sure. My G’s are 200. I think the Edifice Tough Solar is 100m (the POS I was jokingly referencing), and the stuff I was browsing like the PRG-240 are 100m as well.

TBF wears slightly bigger on a NATO...

All Gs are 200, was kind of what I meant. 200m WR is part of the original G-Shock spec so they won't put anything less in a G-Shock. Baby-Gs are the only exception AFAIK, and you can understand that because the point of them is that they're smaller (and therefore 200m is harder to achieve without making it disproportionately thick).

It's kind of surprising the Frogman isn't more - I would have assumed 300m - but I suppose it doesn't need to be to be a certified ISO diver.

Yea sorry I guess my weak joke fell flat in the face of facts and figures.

I keep toying with a PRG/PAW again but really I am better served by any number of basic G’s. Just being a spec bitch.

therefore 200m is harder to achieve without making it disproportionately thick

Pff, pretty sure I've seen dudes on YouTube making a water resistant watch good for 300m just by putting oil in it... Why doesn't someone just do that in the factory? Probably best as something with wireless charging, I guess, but still.

for sure! i got a casio DURO just for the piece of mind, almost went for a citizen promaster diver but the duro is crazy priced....

Sorry for being humourless, I knew what you meant!

First time I've worn a coat

Oh CSB alert, when mum and dad bought me my first G-Shock I was jealous that my sisters both got the dancing display on their Baby-G’s. 30-odd years later still jealous. May have mentioned the story before. Losing my mind this week.

Heh, some of the new ones still have that, or at least reference it, like the BGD-10K series.
