Sitting here waiting to place an order for a Gshock watch. Their shopping cart / checkout hasn't worked, either on my computer or phone, in the five days that I've been trying. I can't be the only one having issues, even if it's just the Canadian store.

I have a watch that is black, is shock resistant, and has a compass. In certain pockets of the US, they would felate themselves by calling it a “tactical watch,” just like they would call anything from a neck warmer to a laptop sleeve “tactical” if it were black. A lot of people who wouldn’t know how to start a fire and probably haven’t walked a mile all at once — they nonetheless need as much “tactical” gear as they can get.

The 6900 is the only #Gshock that I want that I haven't acquired. Sadly, the Gshock Canada site is flaky to the point where I think its security is compromised, so I have a lot of time to decide on a model.

Leaning toward boring black. I like the grey, but I'm not a fan of negative displays. Love the beige-white one, but the Shiba gimmick is a little much. It's not even a good kind of dog. Their necks are too big for their legs. The balance is all wrong. Mea culpa to my J friends. :)

1- Next was #CitizenWatch #EcoDrive #AP0430_51L bought c 1999. After ~19 years, changed to one -- Citizen #BN0198_56H -- with larger hands & dial so that could tell the time easily sans glasses.

I'm not a watch collector but I've always enjoyed cheap resin banded watches, especially #casio and #timex stuff. More recently I have been learning about the more fancy #gshock watches and picked up my first last year. Found this page documenting a test mode for the watches.
