why do so many people pretend they respect and like g shocks ?is it like a huge meme to trick idiots? (like /g/ thinkpads)
>>18676287G-Shocks are only for hard cock guys.
>>18676287i dont know who would pretend. they're durable and for a moment in the late 2000s/early 2010s were fashionable.
>>18676289there are endless of "watch experts" who make it a point to mention how great and respected g shocks are
>>18676290Of course, it’s the only watch that doesn’t break like a fucking toy. You surprised or what?
>>18676292even cheap mall watches don't break over decades of normal use
>>18676293Wrong.
It's a perfect design, like the 1911 pistol and the Fender Stratocaster.
>>18676297I have no idea what could you possibly do to destroy a watch, unless you start smashing it against all objects around you like a retard kid. Which would be still fine for the most of Casios.My AW80-1AV works well after years of rain and close encounters with rocks and metal handrails, my AQ230 survived a lot of brawls.
>>18676348Bro Ibe invented the G-Shock exactly because he broke his mechanical watch and was fed up with it.
You clearly aren't a tier 1 operator... I wouldn't worry about it...
>>18676287You're just poor. G-Shocks are based.
>>18676506G-Shocks aren't expensive. The most expensive ones are like under $300.
>>18676287I bought a couple, they're really uncomfortable to wear and look way worse than I expected.
>>18676508>$300>"expensive"My point stands.
>>18676510esl
>>18676521you don’t have a bidet
Casio is awful to wear.
>>18676805this is just untrue the g-shock bracelet is insanely comfortable
>>18676806If you have a thin wrist it’s not. Sometimes even the f-91w and the smallest models are annoying on the wrist.
Literally looks like the watch nerds wore in high school. The ones with skinny wrists who wore new balance shoes and ran to class instead of walking.
>>18676508The most expensive ones outside of the luxury line are $700
>>18676806Bracelet? Even so the case is wide and flat.
I stopped wearing Casio in general for awhile cause all the browns started but now all I see them wearing is Citizen and Longines so I never wear those brands anymore
>>18676961Still not "expensive."Try going back to school and getting a better job, brokie.
>>18677001Lmao imagine suggesting education as a way to not be poor. You are literally lower middle class at best.
>>18677003>lower middle classI had to look up what range this was because it's not anything I ever have to think about. I don't expect you to believe me, but I personally make over four times the max for "lower middle class," and my household income is even more than that. What does a lower-strata guy like you think is the way to make money? Putting masturbating videos on Only Fans?
>>18676972based brown observer
>>18676508The most expensive G-Shock is around $400k. The MR-G models are around $4k, $8k, $10k.
>>18676287I'm merely pretending to like G-Shocks.
>>18677003An education gives you the greatest chance of not being poor.
>>18677064The greatest chance at not being poor comes from being born to rich parents.
Cougars love the white gshock for some reason
I like mine okay. But i don't wear it much.
>>18677201Yeah. Because only old people care about watches.
>>18676287The G-Shock is one of the best timepieces and mass-produced products ever created.>>18676972This. Rolex is in a bad place because of this and it's about to get worse with the secondary market flood.
>>18676287For people who need something "that just works" and they are hikers or campers or some shit yeah they will never stop glazing these. They are not supposed to be pretty or classy at all, just functional and durable with no nonsense. Basically the pickup truck of watches. If they were trendy at some point that is just because it is trendy. At some point recently IIRC striped polos were in. And barrel pants. I didn't and won't give a shit if something is in style or not if it makes you look like a ten year old wearing it and striped polos etc are that. Are G-shocks that? No but they do look like a shitty watch for kids, even though they absolutely are not. As for me I don't have any unusual tastes, I like Seikos and Tags etc like any rando. I don't dislike Rolexes but the prices running away on them make me just roll my eyes. A watch shouldn't cost more than a car unless it was platinum and studded with diamonds etc which I mean does happen too, it's just more of a jewelry piece at that point to me however.
>>18677071So have parents who aren't poor. Easy.
Just posting the best gshock
I wanted to get the GW-5000HS-1, but now I am worried about microscopic plastic shedding from the strap being absorbed by the skin, I can see that happening
>>18677924lol what
>>18677638>spending money on a casioHAHAHAHAHA look at this fucking dork
>>18677027yeah they make stupid expensive ones, i feel its an intelligence test. They must laugh at people who buy them back at the factory.
>>18678021How often do you buy a Casio? No point in being stingy when it's a purchase made once in a decade.
>>18678032>its good i spent thousands of dollars on a glorified casioyou do you man
>>18678019microplastics bpa etc
>>18678050I bet you also believe polyester pants make people infertile
>>18676287i wear mine dirt biking
>>18678041>200 euros (sale)<thousands of dollarslol at you
>>18676287I own a DW-5600E. Is there any reason why I should pay an extra $100 for a DW-5000R?
I just got one. I like it.
Anybody have the MIP version? GW-BX5600-1ER. Is it a direct upgrade to the classic (currently solar) one, like a next generation?
