This pair has been my summer go to, I won't be selling my others anytime soon but this would make a pretty well rounded duo

Nice summer combo! I'm a fan of Casio watches too and have many. Also you can't beat a Casio in value with my oldest being 12 years with tough solar and the great multi-band 6 atomic clock synchronization. Enjoy your summer watch duo. Cheers!

I'm 44 years old, briefly had a G Shock of some sort, and got rid of it because I felt stupid wearing a plastic watch at my age. Instead, I decided to get a BB58 for my beater. Nice OP.

Beat me to it.

That OP is an absolutely perfect one and done imo.

What else is in the collection OP?

Nice combo Wayne! I particularly love the simplicity of the OP and that the G-Shock has the complications. I appreciate both.

Just bought another DW5600 G-Shock (you know, the one from 1987 that is still available) last week and gave it to my friend’s kid as a birthday present. But I wear one too. Cool watches.

Love it, Wayne. To me, your photo of the white OP that you share regularly is one of the greatest TRF watch photos. That and the Speedmaster on black alligator strap on the white dinner plate always stand out for me!

Nice duo and great pix.

I like that DJ combo and the "G" is cool.

I don't like Grapefruit.

My solar powered family getting a charge.



I bought the copper one but it didn't suit me at all. My wife loves it and it's relatively light, so that worked out well.

Builders working on the house tomorrow, plastic Casio going on for the day. Probably overkill but you don't know what they'll say to people in the pub when they've had a few.

Nice watches. I really like the Seiko SLA017. I previously owned one and traded it. That is one I would like to get back.

I often thought that the only 2 watches I need are
my DJ and G-Shock, but my Sub and DJ are truly the ultimate 2 watch collection.
