Ben Clymer GSHOCK

Any thoughts? I never really liked the JM or Ed Sheeran collabs but I kind of like the look of this one.

It’s a little bland for my tastes. Plus that pic with the Hodinkee logo threw me off. If that’s truly on the screen at times it’s annoying and distracting.

It shows only when you use the backlight so don’t worry about that part.

Why does the dial say NYC and ATL like a world timer when they are in the same time zone?

Their marketing pissed me off a bit on this one. They’ve made the green and yellow G-Shock that came out as part of the set unavailable on Hodinkee. However, you can purchase them both directly from G-Shock. Marketing stunt…

Where things are going they probably shouldn’t tempt fate listing all those locations.

I like the colours. And I actually do like Ben Clymer a lot whenever I’ve seen interviews etc. so I’ve just ordered one for me and one for a buddy. Will be a perfect London watch.

Got mine today. For $185, it’s a great novelty to a classic that should be in everyone’s collection. My favorite do anything, go anywhere, beater to date.
