G-shock. This will be my second one. First one ate it in a snowboarding accident. Need something that can handle abuse.

Wait.. you broke a G-shock?

...

I was wondering the same thing. I have a G-Shock that's been through hell and back, and it shows, but it still works like a champ. I didn't even know Casio made stainless steel G-Shock watches.

Love me some G Shock watches! Going back in time with these! I had a few growing up.

Gonna pick up my son one of these for Christmas this year... I'm excited for him!

This thread caused me to go shopping. Most interesting $60 watch in the world.

The stainless ones look awesome

Yup, broke it in Colorado going down a back country glade. Going at a steady clip and my board caught the end of tree branch. I tumbled and somehow my arm snagged something in the snow which bent the front outer plate.

Sent it back to Casio and they gave me a credit for $75 off a new g-shock. I was a little sour that they didn't send me a replacement so i swore off buying another one.

Ill see if i can dig up some old photos of it.

I didn't wear one for quite a few years until my wife recently bought it for our 5 year anniversary. The stainless steel versions are not 100% waterproof though so be very careful. On our 5 year anniversary in Bermuda, the day after she gave me the watch i almost went cave swimming with it on. She grabbed me at the last second and told me to pull it off.

Finally have two to add to this, my mother in law passed down two watches from her collection to me as part of a wedding gift-
