Nice Pair man! But come on with the G-Shock? I had that when I was 9 years old for crying out loud. You could've at least get the latest G-Shock Master to match that bitchin awesome looking YM.






But no really that is a classic one you have there, one of the first issued by G-Shock way back before they soared popularity.

You get a whole lot of watch for your money...

Don't own a g-shock myself, but some of the highly collectible ones sell for more than a Rolex.

A friend of mine had an all stainless version that I thought was really nice.

Here is one which sold for close to $40k...

That's exactly the one on my amazon cart, still undecided if Atomic and Solar is needed compared to the Triple sensor one.

Wore this G on duty for years, can't beat 'em. Looks no worse for the wear. I still wear it from time to time.

G Shock is the other brand of watches I love. Been wearing one on & off since the late 80's.

really like the master g's and metal g's. Have been thinking about adding an analog G shock. I like Casio watches.
