This is a public service announcement. Don't be an idiot like me. About a month ago I was watching YouTube videos and saw that Casio had a relatively new G-Shock (GA2100) made with a carbon guard. It has an octagonal bezel and is very thin for a G-Shock. I was intrigued, but some quick research… Continue reading I Got Scammed
Casio watches
Almost every watch collector I have seen on YouTube or read about talks about how they wore Casio's when they were young and that planted a seed for their love of watches. I was the same. When I was very young I wore some Casio's, then as I got older some Fossil watches, older still… Continue reading Casio watches
Another Ebay issue I should of avoided
On October 8, 2019 I purchased a Seiko SSB005 blue dial chronograph. The watch has a mecha-quartz 6T63 movement. The case size is 40mm wide, 11.50mm thick and 47.30mm lug-to-lug. It has 20mm lugs for literally a perfect sized watch for my wrist. I bought it off Ebay, and once again, I should have read… Continue reading Another Ebay issue I should of avoided
Casio G-Shocks…Oh My!
I love Casio G-Shocks and have no idea why. I have never been much of an outdoors kind of guy and rarely stay out long enough to even get a sunburn. My job does not require me to do anything physical except standing up from my desk to go the bathroom on occasion. I don't… Continue reading Casio G-Shocks…Oh My!
Seiko SNKE57 finds a home
On October 25, 2019 I purchased a brand new Seiko SNKE57 from Jomashop. This is a Seiko 5 with the 7S26 movement. This movement has been around since the 1996 and is pretty antiquated in the watch world. However my watch was manufactured in April, 2019 according to the serial number, so my 7S26 is… Continue reading Seiko SNKE57 finds a home
Seiko 5 SNZH55
On September 29, 2019 I purchased a Seiko 5 SNZH55. I bought it off eBay as a used watch. It had a few scratches on the case and bracelet, but the crystal and bezel are in very good shape. It just looks like a watch that has barely been worn. The case is 42mm wide,… Continue reading Seiko 5 SNZH55
Collecting Clocks
After an October 15th tax deadline, one I never want to remember, I was sitting in my office trying to detox a little and noticed my little clock with with the roman numerals and lovely picture of my family from the early 2000's. It's an inexpensive little clock, nothing special. But, I love the dial. … Continue reading Collecting Clocks
The Journey Continues…
On March 14, 2019 I received an Apple Watch series 4. The Apple Watch is incredible. It gives me freedom from my cell phone and makes certain data very accessible with just a glance. Until recently I have not given my "real" watches much thought. A few weeks ago, I started wearing one on Fridays… Continue reading The Journey Continues…
Week in review 1/19/19
It's Saturday and the end of the week. How did I do this week? Did I meet my goals? Sort of. The first goal was to lose weight. I did not lose or gain weight. So, I get half of a check. I weigh the same today as I did last Saturday. Another goal was… Continue reading Week in review 1/19/19
Another Weight Loss Gadget
I purchased another weight loss gadget. After saying all I needed was my Fitbit (Fitbiting.) After writing about how I figured it all out yesterday, I realized that I ordered something earlier this week that I completely forgot about. It's an Omron HBF-306C Fat Loss Analyzer Monitor. Say that three times fast. I watched this… Continue reading Another Weight Loss Gadget
