I can’t belive that this cost 1700 ( basically it’s at most 500€ watch)no matter if it’s titanium,now consider how disturbingly close this price is to King of all pure diving watches Seiko MM 300 which preowned cost between 2100€ while new costs 3400€.

I want a Casio Oceanus S100, Titanium with that polishing, atomic time, sapphire crystal, and a bit of a retro look. My collection is nearly at 20 watches, mostly Casio, Citizen, and Chinese Microbrands. Wear an Addiesdive Submariner a lot as a beater and I’m really impressed for the price. I feel the S100 will be my everyday piece and really finishes off my collection. Even when I get a Rolex Submariner I imagine I’ll wear Casio’s far more frequently.

I'm a white dial guy too but I've had my eye on the new, to be released "Hamilton Watch Khaki Field King Auto; H64455533" with a black dial. To be safe though I'd like to buy the "H64455523" white dial but with the day/date at the 12 O'clock but it also has a "protected/shielded" crown. Not sure what it's called w/lugs around the crown. I like the watches and breakdown in this video.

Most of the metal G-Shocks should have mineral glass. "Scratch but don't shatter" is the entire G-Shock philosophy.

Warning tough review*** Graphically speaking in my humble opinion (I work in a design profession): The hour indicies (I'm calling them icicles) are pointing to the middle of the dial. There's nothing at the middle point of the dial. The mix of circles and 12, 3, 6, 9 icicles are in reverse. The greater visual should be at 12, 3, 6, 9. The hour and minute hands have no great pointing visual movement to the dial hour indicies. The second hand sweep counter balance looks like a Jack-in-the Box head. Not sure why this design is striking a dissonant chord with me but it is.

I'm laughing and it just started. How bro. How do you choose this over a sarb033??? Sapphire? 38mm? 6r movement....? I'm just waiting for a good one to come in. And it's just a turd one after another. Sport watches. And quartz. My guy. This is so funny. I think your joking in all this right. Or is this genuinely what you think?
@lance7607Ай бұрын
I've owned this for some years now and it's the most comfortable watch I've ever worn. I think part of the reason for this is the DLC coating--it's very low friction and so the watch and bracelet feel almost as if they're floating on the skin. This watch has been through quite a bit and still does not have the slightest scratch on it.

Both have promised to drop something to this end in the near future. Now, I understand that these are huge establishments with tight schedules and plenty on their plate(s). OH,had I known, that you already beat them to the punch. Thanks, mister!

Wow, I agree with almost everything you said here. I like everything about that Laco except, like you said, the lume should be blue. Also one thing you didn't really talk about. I don't think this is really "Made in Germany" like when we think about made in America. This watch was assembled in Germany with a Swiss made movement. And the watch has now gone up in price. Over $1800 US. Fun fact, you can no longer choose USA or America on the website to get it in US dollars. You have to choose the British flag for English and then convert euros to dollars... Anyway, for my $1800 there are many assembled in the US with a Swiss movement watches that I like as well or better. :)

I'm also with you about the "value" of things. Whether one dollar or $3000 it has to make sense, TO ME. Or in your case, to you. I love this watch more than I paid for it, so the value is there, for me. Also for me, buying any drink at a restaurant other than water is CRAZY!! Nearly $3 for iced tea or a soda or $5-6 or more for a beer? No, I'll take water please. But that's me. My wife buys the most expensive mango-whatever tea they have. And I let her. Because I love her. I hope whatever was going on with your wife three years ago is all better now. From one believer to another and one watch lover to another, I'm praying for you! God bless.

I now own the watch in this video. That exact LE Ultralight #79 (sorry i have your birth year, I was born in '73). I absolutely love this watch. I bought it second hand from the guy that rebought the watch after you returned it. Now it's on a navy and red nylon strap and it gets loved and worn ALOT! I also have a rare dark red dial Weiss American Issue and I love it too. I agree with you about Whitney being awesome. Thew whole company (which is just a few people) is amazing. Highly recommended!

The brushed metal bezel on the NS version is the single best metal bezel out of any G-shock watch. It’s metal and looks beautiful, but it isn’t super glossy and reflective so doesn’t really show finger prints and dents/scratches. The biggest dealbreaker for me, and the reason why I returned it, is because it doesn’t allow you to set/reset the seconds when manually setting the time. It will just keep counting the seconds regardless of you manually changing the time, which means that it’s literally impossible to sync it up precisely with other watches. Bluetooth capability is great, but it should never ever mean that functionality on the watch itself is reduced. Got a DW-H5600 instead, which I’m very happy with even if it’s not as pretty looking and the buttons are much worse.
