Sometimes we all need a break, Bruce. You're forgiven.

My fav digitals are still the Suuntos. They just aren't as tough, or water resistant as the Gs. Really wish I could tolerate these digitals more. You get so much practical functionality for the money.

Bruce its up to you what you wear the majority here are not watch snobs.Myself have been wearing my $65 Alpha mostly the last few weeks.Why you might ask when I have more exotic brands to wear.Simply because I want to, and myself never judge a person on what he wears on his wrist.

Thanks Padi. I know it's up to me what I wear, and I do wear what I want, whether it's popular or not. Like someone said here, the G is probably the ultimate tool watch, but I somehow can't bring myself to wear it very often
Cheers,
Bruce

Hi Bruce,

I always wanted a G-Shock, but couldn't afford it when I was in elementary school. I had to settle for a no name brand called Alba quartz. I then moved up to a Casio databank after I had good grades at school
