G-shock or Luminox?
Any experience with these two watches for the gym, swimming, etc.
I prefer the looks of the Luminox, but understand a G-shock is more robust. |

My .02
G-Shock. The only downside to them is the strong possibility of getting hooked, and starting a collection of them. francobollo |

I have G-Shocks and had a few Traser and Luminox
I am a G-Shock collector myself so my opinion may be bias ... LOL I love the look of Traser, it does what its suppose to do (light up in the dark with no charge, tell me the time and day), and I have no complain about it. But with G-Shock, I got to do a little more, I got chrono, world time, alarm, etc. And it still lights up in the dark with a button of fully auto EL. And with the solar atomic technology, its always accurate and no need to worry about battery. And the lower end G-Shock is cheaper than Luminox. Both watches will do just fine in the gym, swimming, and almost anything that you can throw at it (while the watch is on your wrist). So go with the one that you like better (style, price, function)

I've used both. I'd favor the G-Shock.

I have three G's and a Titanium Luminox F117. I like all of them.
