Would love to know what you guys think and your reasoning for it. I'm starting to see a lot of Apple Watches/Fitbits/Galaxy Watches in my area compared to more traditional timepieces.

Where my Casio G-Shock fam at? Solar, set by atomic clock, stylish, pretty backlight, old Nokia cell phone levels of indestructible. What's not to love?

I gave my ~25 years old G-Shock to my son, he somehow lost it the garden in the fall. I found it the next spring when the snow had melted. I dried it up and changed the battery, it works like nothing had happened.

Amazing design.

Gshocks are the ultimate watch, and honestly one of the most reliable things someone can have for everyday use

Same. I've beat the shit out of this watch and they're not even expensive. It has some dings now, but it took quite a while dealing with my blue collar bullshit before it started showing abuse.
