New Beater!

So a funny thing happened after I purchased my Rolex a few weeks ago. For the first time in over ten years I was wearing a watch every day. I got used to having one again and when I was doing muddy yard work or construction I didn't have a rugged beater to wear. What is a man to do?!?! I had a GShock when I was a kid and it took 7 years to kill. I figure that's like 500 boring adult years.

I love the thing, its useful, can be run over by a truck and still work, and is quite comfortable on my wrist.

Just wanted to share some pictures of it. FYI it's a Casio G-Shock G9000MX-8V.

A nice new tin can:


Ooo, some orange to spice it up:


What Rolex?!?


Looks good on my wrist:


The dual illumination is pretty cool looking, and easy to read:


So now when I'm building houses with the family business or just don't feel like risking the Rolex to really heavy activities I have a new utility watch that still makes me smile. Although for totally different reasons of course!

FYI I got it for $68 shipped, new. Pretty good price I think, I usually see them for $99+.
