Hey Ryan..... when does your OM arrive?????.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know about my love for my BM........ Well, i was planning on getting an OM also....,but checking other threads i am now wondering if i should get an Invicta or Casio G-Shock. My head tells me i should explore other brands......but deep down i feel that if i got something else.... i would still end up getting an OM anyway!!!! I am usually decisive....but not this time......so i will do nothing for now. |

Continuing with Monsters. I have the bracelet and the rubber strap but keep it on this green NATO which matches the markers pretty well. As for lume, guess which is the MONSTER.

Nice G-Shock Bill
This is the Frogman I'm thinking about, GWF-1000B-1JR. It's a monster in its own right too 58.3×52.8×18mm!! Quote:

Went with the bracelet. Looking at picking up a rubber strap later. Now I am waiting for 2 watches, the monster and for Rolex to finish up with the old GMT. Thanks Doug
