    Nothing against G shocks but the accuracy per month is terrible.
    That is something expected from a automatic watch that is not adjusted.
    Quartz are known for their accuracy but this needs to be adjusted.

      • Just bought a new watch yesterday.
        Breitling Super Avenger Chrono.

        My Orange Monster dive watch is dwarfed by the size of it.
        Big chunky, weighty and solid. Will be great fun riding with this watch

          • am currently using this.

            the model is the same but the strap is denim and the dials are blue with a white background. Its good for partying but not for meetings.

            Am looking at something formal with metal straps, something classy and snazzy lol analog not digital.

            other than titan and timex i've no idea about other brands. i want something premium, something which will scream am getting paid ALOT ! what brands should i look into?

            my budget was 5k but going through this thread i guess that wouldnt be enough for what am looking for. any suggestions? brand names and price range would be great. i see tissot everywhere, is it worth it? how much do they cost? i guess i should start saving lol

                    Casio is known for digital, however, recent times they have also started to concentrate on premium market share. I had bought couple of them in US, they look decent and these days they have even more lovely models. It is priced between 6-20k depending on the model.

                    Also try FOSSIL at Spencer plaza Phase III.

                        I'd recommend a nice Seiko if you want something solid and reliable. Automatic if you can.
                        Casio's are still a great watch, they have fantastic range. They also sponsor Redbull Racing.

                          Replaced my old Casio G Shock with a Samsung Galaxy Gear Fit.

                          Works really well, allows me to
                          - View Caller Info
                          - Make calls on signals (no mic on watch, but you will have your earphones connected)
                          - Check sms/other notifications
                          - View turn by turn Maps guidance
                          - Control music play lists too!

                          What's more, it's IP67 dust and water proof.
