Casio should release their famous watch with an e sim, an email notifier, a nfc payment and maybe a chatgpt/gemini search by voice option all managed via a PC instead of a phone app. Then I'll gladly use their watch. Until then, it's galaxy for me.

Can someone recommend me a nice subtle watch that is still classy looking but not too outgoing? My preference is a round face.

>>108040097
The laughable part is inside that probably had the same $0.25 mechanism you'll get in every wall clock.
But "historically" the internals to clocks was highly precise engineering, little tiny cogs and gears. Moving them about increased chance o screwin' up keepin' time - look into naval clocks - or even damagin' the tiny teefs.

>>108040709

lol. Everything that should be analog is digital, and everything that should be digital is analog. They deserve a medal.

>>108040452
ferk that noise.
Essentially, unless you're spending stoopit munny then it's all going to be precisely the same mechanism in a selection of cases...

Pick a case you like. As that's what this is about for you. How do we know what you like? Fire up aliexpress and look to see what they offer in your ballpark...
But you aint gonna get something like the Devonworks Tread2 unless you pay stoopit munny....

Mechanical watches are my preference. I bought this old Soviet watch from Ukraine around 2013 and it hasn't even needed a service in that time
>>
>>108044163
These ana-digi watches usually have a way to fix this without opening it up. See if you can find a PDF of the manual and look through it for a hand adjust mode. You hit some esoteric set of keypresses and it allows you to align the hands to where they should be agin.

I love black casios but the metallic ones are just coated plastic so i avoid them. (You would be surprised at how many people don't realize this, even people that own them) I like Armitron's stainless digital watches.

Earth's sun isn't massive enough to become a black hole
as a G-type main sequence star, it will eventually become a white dwarf
if the universe exists for enough trillions of years, it will become a black dwarf when it radiates away its leftover energy

I've been wearing mine (also full black) every day for 4 years, and I work in heavy industrial facilities sticking my hands in harsh places where they don't belong. I've only ever nicked the outer casing, the rest of the watch has held up brilliantly

The only reason they would care is if their ex-boyfriend/husband taught them about watches. Congratz fag, you just impressed her ex.

which should i cop? Im looking for something around their price range. something sleek, durable, not bulky, and non metal/leather. left one is p2100 and right is m5610U. I currently have an f91w and i'm looking to replace it.
>>
>>108057005
Right if you live within range for the time to auto update, >>108047246 pretty much covers everything, it really is pretty much perfect. I can't speak for the casioak as that type of watch never appealed to me, especially as the digital part of the display is tiny and relatively useless.
>>
>>108057080
should i change the strap on it or is the one it comes with fine?
>>
>>108057340
It's fine, compared to the GW5000's there's not that much difference in my opinion. There's the ability to swap bezels and bands from other models if you want to start getting funky.
>>
>>108050191
politically incorrect
>>
>>108047246
I liked it, but I found it wuite bulky because I was so used to the F-91W.
>>108049972
I picked up a blue one with a black screen when I was in Japan. After a while I ended up not liking the negative screen. Its aesthetically pleasing, but more difficult in at certain angles/light levels.
>>
>>108049404
non-issue in power saving mode. It turns off the display when it's stationary and in the dark. I've had mine unused for weeks and the battery has never dipped to even medium let alone low, always high since I got it and I live in a nordic country with no sunlight several months of the year. It only gets artificial light most of the time because throughout the year it's under the sleeve of a jacket or a shirt when I'm outside
