I don't get it guys.

I can understand construction workers wearing these but we are "WIS'", we should have some taste right?

if you have to ask you will never know (RHCP).....
i switch real easy from this (when doing construction work)


to this (when on a meeting or in my office)
(and so on and so on, and i did not even put the Rollies here...)

WISdom is a state of mind, not an act!

I don't see the point of starting this thread. I don't like G-shocks. I don't wear them, but that is my preference. I don't really like Rolex either. Both have their followers and I hope those watches bring their respective owners pleasure. I can guarantee you that there are more than a few members here that really don't like my giant 70s gold plate Rados. They are generally polite enough to keep that to themselves, not that it would bother me if they did bash them.

This



stops me damaging these







if I'm exercising or doing manual chores.

This



would stop my missus scratching this



If she remembered to make the change at the appropriate time!

G-Shocks have an appeal to some and are a great tool for others.

Well, you're very far from WIS if you don't get it...

this is just ignorant post with lack of knowledge of the product.
it is just a watch... a very2 good tool watch that's highly dependable... and taste is not general and always similar with yours... you would think that your collection might be the best in taste... well, it is just your opinion..

use the right tool for the job...

Haha, I'm just kidding around,
Differnt strokes for differnt folks I guess.
Even people that love G-shocks got to admit they're mostly ugly right?

It just seems odd to me that we sit here and discuss watch designs and complicated movements, where does the G-shock fit in to that discussion? Lets face it G-shocks have become fashion accessory watches too. It's very "hip hop" trendy to wear.

No need for people to get offended by OPs post. I think there is too much sensitivity on this board. Who wants to see this board be nothing more than guys buying a watch, posting a photo, and having people congratulate him? Not me. These little machines that we wear are little works of art and art can be discussed, critiqued, and defended.

if you don't like G-shock's then why bother? It is in your mind to say something about them (even worse, start a troll-thread about them) so they must have moved you. If i don't like something, i just don't pay attention to it, but i sure as hell wont start a discussion over it. Maybe you're just a sad person who likes to point his finger to a vast group of people (who have the most active forum here on wus), just to make you feel better about yourself......


(ps : i predict a lot of pages within 24h)
