A new (and Rolexy) super-beater

Here's a flea market find that I really like.

In real life, this one is close enough to turn some heads, without being too much of a Sub wannabe.

I remember one of my classmates having that and flaunting he had a Rolex. It is a great beater though!

Pretty nice lume on this one. I sat it next to the sea-dweller on the nightstand and it was brighter much longer.

Is the crystal acrylic or sapphire? I've been looking for a beater with an acrylic crystal for quite some time.

Flea markets sometimes can be the best places in the world!
That Casio looks great, blue is THE color!
