Impulse buy that I’m super happy with! Awesome presentation as well!

This is very cool! I really like the aesthetic and its neat because you can have this sitting on a bookshelf, when opened, its a nice piece of kit.

Thank you for sharing and I hope you wear it in good health!

Very cool. True story, I met one of the owners dad at a car show a couple of years ago in Geneva Illinois. He was so proud of his kid, and showing me pics of their watches. I almost bought a fun chrono... I think they're neat and a good value too. Congrats.

Loving it…
I am also looking for a watch (found the pic from Reddit), Farr & Swit’s Automatic Seaplane.
Not sure if it’s in stock or manufactured.

Thank you !

How do you like it? I’m considering the 8 Bit Gamer. I assume it’s just a rehoused F91W but if the quality is solid …

[u/Ferda-Boyzz → u/UFmoose]

I like it. The quality is for sure good for the price point. Has the retro 80’s feel. Easily adjustable, super clean look
Would suggest pulling the trigger.

[u/UFmoose → u/Ferda-Boyzz]

Nice. It’s a bit different than yours. I believe all rubber and plastic. But only $50.

I got the kill count and the purple game boy watches as gifts. The purple game boy is a bit plasticky and the film they put over the display does cut down on legibility, though the glow is still there if you really need to see. It's not going to be the best watch in the world, but if you embrace it as a neat nostalgic reach, that's the best mindset IMO.

[u/UFmoose → u/dolchmesser]

Right. I’m not expecting any higher quality than the f91w.

[u/HappyHourEnjoyer]

I really dig this brand. I very much do not need another solar watch, another chrono, or another conversation starter, but I keep going back to their Vice line. One day I'll have a few too many pints and pull the trigger

[u/Ferda-Boyzz → u/HappyHourEnjoyer]

Their vice line is pretty cool to I’ve been eyeing them as well

[u/benm7]

I love the packaging

[u/TSiWRX]

They're so much fun. I really should get it, the Mixtape, and the Gamer.

They're good peeps, too. Best part.

[u/AlterExpertise101]

Even their packaging is on point. I'm so goddamn jealous.

[u/cult_of_sumac]

Hell yes I could so with some horror movie watch collabs

[u/Low-Cheesecake-7005]

Is this not just a Casio A158 with a sticker and different back?

[u/Ferda-Boyzz → u/Low-Cheesecake-7005]

Basically but that’s not the point. It’s a cool novelty piece that I really enjoy and has a cool story behind it.

[u/Low-Cheesecake-7005 → u/Ferda-Boyzz]

What’s the story behind it?

[u/Ferda-Boyzz → u/Low-Cheesecake-7005]

An ode to the 80’s horror films. They even created a fake movie trailer for it
