PROTIP: The Expedition is cool-looking but is fragile trash. I owned mine for 6 months, took it off one night to do dishes, and when I pulled it out of my pocket, the crown caught the pocket lining and pulled the fuck off the watch, with almost no force used.

I replaced it with pic related. iirc it was $20 more than the Timex and it's 10x the watch.

The stopwatch function is convenient on lunch breaks to make sure I don't spend two hours eating a sandwich and it is within 30 seconds of sattelite time after shooting with it on twice a month.

Casio g-shock watches are the most solid ones you could ever find.

>>32472447
Sorry bruv.

Ride it out, see how long you get out of it. Like I said, it's a cool fucking watch (thing looks cool as fuck in the dark, for instance). Just not all that well-made.

Be careful of the crown snagging on shit and you might well get a lot longer out of yours than I did mine.

Overall I'd still recommend a better watch at some point. I tend to beat the shit out of my stuff, and that Seiko's held up extremely well. It's also solar-powered (Seiko rates the battery for like 20 years) and has a much more minimalist aesthetic than you really see with a lot of watches that cater to the /k/ crowd. See: all the G-shocks ITT (bar a few examples) with so much shit cluttering up the display you can hardly read the damn thing.

There is a disturbing lack of "the sun and a stick" in this thread.

This is why, except for dress watches to be worn casually or with a suit or whatever (just not innawoods and the like) you must insist on a watch with a screw-down crown.

It helps somewhat with water resistance (usually watches with screw down crowns have better WR than those without anyway, with some strange exceptions) but mainly so that this sorta thing cannot happen.

also i've been wanting a chronograph complication. Grand Seiko, Omega Speedy, or a Zenith El Primero are the front runners. pic related... if only it had lume. and a less awkward place for the power reserve complication.

>>32479626
yeah, honestly when i'm flying the more important things i focus on are timing legs of a journey, and calculating fuel consumption which if you've got that stuff committed to memory you only need a simple calculator to do the trick.
the ca53 has a "lap" function for the chrono which makes it super useful for timing legs, and a dual timezone function for if you're traveling far away

>>32479663

or unless you don't care just get a reduced gen speedy off chrono24 for like, 1200 bux from some jap seller, they're p common there

>>32479667

i guess i'm spoiled, my jet'll tell me the fuel state estimate assuming i'm going direct to the next steer point as well as ETE/ETA, and predictive through the route of the flight to whatever steerpoint i tell it to. it's pretty intuitive, you just have to tell it where you're going to next.

GMT complications are super awesome though.

i mean back in the day i did it with a lot of 60:1 math and hacking clocks for 36 seconds (or 15 or 6 or 30) and a lot of mental math... but i've got an ADCP that tells me a wind-corrected heading to fly, why wouldn't i use it? i've got more important things to worry about like "how do i find this thing so i can blow it up"

For anyone thinking about picking up a F-91, I was looking for the same about 5 years ago. Then I stumbled across this watch, the W-59. I know, the F-91 has meme value, but this one, in my opinion, is more attractive. The W-59 is the same size and shape as the F-91, but I think the aesthetics are a little "cleaner" on the W-59. Additionally, it's also rated as water resistant down to 50M, as opposed to the F-91 which isn't even safe to take in the shower or get wet when washing your hands (Casio says this themselves). Anyway, it's the watch I have now and I really like it. I think it's worth a look if you want a watch like the F-91.

I used this for four plus years starting in my time in the Army as an infantryman to when someone stole it.

The only issue I had was the light-up function stopped working sometime around year two, but it wasn't a big issue when the dials glowed softly in the dark, anyway.

I liked the simplicity and leather band. Not a fan of NATO, plastic, or, worst of all, metal for innawoods. I never really needed the extra dials and barely cared to set the date. If I was a diver or something, I might have invested in something heavier, but it fit my needs well enough.

>>32480048

I got the watch as a gift and didn't like it at all on the default strap, which was also un-comfy as hell, but getting this orange overload really pulled it together. It turns the watch from plain tacky into some kind of crazy statement thing.

Plus it's just damn useful. Easy access to calendar, timer, etc, and I even use the flight computer when playing flightsims. (It's useful as hell because I fly in Imperial measurements and most other people use metric.)

Airheaded 1SG decided to splice a phone charger into a wire somewhere in his whip. Dumbass fell asleep, something caught fire.

Retard pointed his M9 at a bunch of us and proceeded to dry fire it pressed to my neck when we were coming back from the field the next day. He was "joking around." That got him cursed out by this specialist and relieved of command. Good riddance faggot.

>shit battery life
Not true. You have to change the battery once or twice a year, which is good for a watch like this.
>seals fuck up
Depends on do you fuck them up or not. I didn't, because I know how to swap a battery. It shouldn't be hard for anyone.
>ABC function sucks
It does, if you don't understand how the watch works. It can't magically know your altitude and barometric pressure, so regular calibration is required to get accurate data. This is true for all ABC watches whether the company tells you this or not. Suunto does.
>must remove watch for 15 mins for accurate thermometer reading
True and completely normal, if you think about it. After all, your body heats the watch and it doesn't have any reasonable way of figuring out, which heat comes from the environment and which heat comes from you body.

Core isn't perfect though; it's not shock proof and the water resistance is quite bad. If you want a durable Suunto, buy one that's made in Finland. I broke my Core and got a Traverse to replace it. Traverse is a million times more durable than Core and now there are also versions with sapphire glass.

it's going to be +/- 15 seconds per month. you don't get into +/- 20 seconds per year until you get into The Citizen, Breitling Superquartz, or Grand Seiko territory. and paying $5k for a quartz watch just feels wrong.

bought it when in Iraq. The barometer is excellent and will give a great reading if you plug in your elevation. (or the reverse).

Don't use the compass because the re calibration time (~30 seconds to remove and spin it) to set it up negates a lot of the usefulness. You're better off with a magnetic compass to get reoriented in 7 seconds reorientation. I suppose it would work in a survival manner, but I don't have those problems. For primary navigation you wouldn't use a watch compass.

Temperature is also accurate to within 1 degree, but you have to remove the watch for 15+ minutes, so practicality is low.

overall, I am happy for the $45 it cost me.

Actually it's the exact same watch, no difference, but different market designation (er part). It's cheaper because it's a different vendor. If you don't care for atomic or solar, dw5600 for $40 is the next best thing.

I have worn this watch just about 24/7 for the last 13 years barring a few days here and there to replace batteries, band pins, and spring bars... I finally just bought a big set of pins, spring bars, and the battery case tool to repair stuff on my own since I feel naked without it. The only scratch to the crystal was from bashing the shit out of it on the edge of a stainless steel counter top. I thought it would have shattered...

I wish somebody would make something like this but without the Breitling price tag and with slightly less gaudy styling.

I had a pebble for a while and found it pretty useful for basic notifications but I don't like the styling or interface of smart watches. This is pretty cool since it'd give me texts and caller ID but would still be a regular analog watch at the same time. A high-end watch is a definite no, though, because I find the smart features most useful when I'm working in the shop.

>>32498248
That's pretty slick, what model is it?

>>32498304
And shit, I just read a review and I guess it just gives you a "Call" or "Text" notification but not any details. Never mind then.

I don't know why nobody has made something like this with a good hybrid of smart and traditional features. An e-ink display could replace the digital ones on that watch if necessary. I really like a smart watch in the shop because it lets my leave the phone somewhere safe and the watch tells me if a call or text is important enough to stop what I'm doing, wash up, and reply to it.

>>32498164
I think you got a lemon, have you talked to Seiko about it? The watch thread on /g/ made a single digits number of seconds per day sound like the norm.

>>32498322
The back says Seiko 5y23-5099

>>32498164
That definitely sounds weird, I haven't noticed anywhere close to that much with my SKX.

That said I switch watches so often that I usually have to restart and reset my SXK every time I wear it, so timekeeping isn't a big deal to me. I've worn it for weeks straight before, though, and didn't have any issues with timekeeping.

Is the DW5600 the best casio, or is there other types of square g shocks that are better or similar (without increasing the price drastically?)

western society. i'm in my 30's too, and my father sat me down when i was about 5 and told me how to wear a watch. maybe if your father wasn't possibly half of the trailer park yours would have done the same.

the crown is on the right hand side for a reason. pushers are on the right hand side for a reason. you can shoot a gun, write a letter, do work with your right hand and check the time with your left.

That's the watch I have. Haven't had any issues with it, only thing slightly annoying is the dual time feature and the lap timer. But it just werks, and if it ever doesn't I can spend another $15 and get a different one or similar one. It seems as though most watches are jewelry, toys, or toy jewelry.

I have a F91W and took it diving, survived 20m for 40 or so minutes, tried it a couple more times and works without a hickup.

Pic related is the one I use most besides the tritium traser p 6500.

It's okay, today i'd rather get other watch like >>32482659 >>32496979 or >>32482631 or >>32511365

how are the casio pro treks for everyday usage, some shooting, and actual outdoor stuff?

Customized Seiko

Got the same one but the black and red version, it's a tough one

>>32511381
Yeah it's about pressure.
50M/100M water resistance are marketing terms. They are resistant to 5/10 bar, which quickly go up the faster you go.

I happened to have caught my expeditions crown on a doorway while carrying a PC. Surprisingly though before this I took a dive into some dirt and bent one of the pins but it worked fine afterwards.

>>32482134
Wow same

>Why, why do you have that framed in your house

I never have visitors so I don't have anyone to think it's "weird" and my goofy pictures I have framed on my wall make me laugh.
