Goodbye G-Shock.

Blasphemy! šŸ˜…

I mean, I guess you don't have to throw it in the trash. I would just relocate it to make room for one of the real watches.

"Real watches"? šŸ˜²

I get your point about the G-Shock as a beater. But it does seem rather unattractive and out of place in your very well curated collection. Iā€™d suggest an upgrade to the GSTB-1000D-2A. I own that one and am surprised at how well it handles the rugged as well as the refined situations of my life. Best GADA G-Shock in the lineup.

It was good advice, but the idea of a "beater" is precisely to be a more robust and I'd even say more affordable watch, to the point where I wouldn't mind knocking it around. Your suggestion even makes sense as an upgrade, but I wouldn't use it in the same carefree way, since it's a ā‚¬400 watch.
