I agree with you but It also depends on how expensive your watches are. If it’s a 2499 first series from the 1940s. Do not think anyone would just wear it that casually😅

Yes. Smooth + jubilee is the ultimate casual classy combo. Not to classy as a full oyster and not too flashy/blingy as a full jubilee fluted combo

Great guy! Once again we can see that Casio and Gshocks are cool. You can have in your collection Rolex, Omega, IWC but there is nothing bad with owning a Gshock. That's the beauty of them. I do have them as well and many times my simply square one wins over Omega or Breitling.
@robertmorano2372 Жыл бұрын
Agreed and the duro (mdv-106) is incredible. Beater, vacation watch, etc. A true strap monster and a gorgeous piece if you're ok with the size. I cook for a living as well, and 8 times out of 10, either the duro is on my wrist (on an fkm rubber strap) or the gshock gd-350 with the vibrating alarm. I've had my duro for about 7 years and it's been everywhere with me. Out of all of my watches, the amount of compliments the duro gets is wild.

Rolexes are so boring, and when scratched and dinged up they don't gain character, but lose all the bling that made them attractive. Maybe in the past when they were tool watches, traces of wear made them look unique, but now it is not nice to see that perfect finish being ruined.
