Well then all people who wear watches are not idiots .. n they also have mobile phones!

I would rate Casio G-Shock as most VFM.
Reasons:
1. Non reflective dial
2. Shock resistant
3. Scratch resistant
4. Water resistant (200m)
5. Timer, stopwatch, alarm etc.
6. E data memory for saving ATM passwords etc.
7. Night light-when you turn your wrist, the dial lights up on its own-very useful for night riding.
8. 10 year battery life
9. Strap doesn't tear easily even though its not leather
10. Rust proof

mine is dis..



truly a head turner!

Can the battery be changed or is it use and throw?

I have Clock on My Dazzler

For all those looking for a clock on their bikes ( the ones without inbuilt ones obviously ), we must not be lazy to do some DIY chaps ..

How to put a clock on your motorcycle

These are mine.
I bought the white dial Casio as I lost the G-Shock, but after a month, it was found under couch.

My Timex Watch!!

Time,date & day thats all i got to know b'coz my bike already has a clock with adjustable stopwatch settings etc..

I would love to have one of those fancy Hi-tech CASIO watches. Considering the fact, I might have worn the watches I have a few times in the past decade or atleast 7 odd years, it might never happen. Always been a need based shopper so it might never happen!

A lot of folks i know stopped wearing watches once they started with their mobile phones, it was gradual but a lot left their watches behind. The Rolex kind never left them behind though!

I use this one, Casio SGW400HD-1B, Yes the image has been shot by me over a Canon 18-55 non IS lens. A also have another Casio which has a Fighter Plane display unit with all those Radar trims, i forgot the model number.

I don't like WristWatch because I know my habit.
Then I'll see time and throttle more to see in how much less time I reach destination :-/

What is the cost of this beauty

My beater watch/daily wear is my Seiko Orange Monster Dive watch, Stainless bracelet with diver extension. I use it when I go scuba diving, Orange face, Crazy bright lume, Great watch, my all time favorite. I bought the silicone strap but prefer the SS bracelet.

I also have G Shock Mudman, I use this for work on offshore and landbased oil rigs, Only thing I don't like are the buttons are very hard to press.

Casio Pro Trek ABC watch, Titanium model, I've pulled appart and havn't bothered to reassemble.

Seiko Sportura with chronograph. This is my 2nd fav watch, I've had to replace the capacitor as it stopped holding the charge but still a nice "chunky" watch.

Omega Speedmaster Automatic.
The moonwatch (baby) This one I don't wear anymore, Its too small and (I feel) delicate to be wearing

I have a couple other G Shocks but they have broken straps and flat batteries.

If I don't wear a watch I feel naked. Heavy Automatic wrist watch's are definitely needed.
