      One guy is talking about his fishing watch not having batteries, and it might actually be more cost efficient for him to just go out and buy a new one they're so cheap. This other dude has one that's got an Altimeter and Barometer on it.

      Every automatic I've had in my life has needed maintenance at some point. They have small, metal internal parts that need very specific cleanings specialty greases or they stop working. A digital watch just needs a new battery every 5 years or so, which takes about 5 mins to do.

      It has a guaranteed 10 year battery life. I think you'll be fine.

      Like, I love my automatics, but you drop an automatic movement watch, and you're probably going to break it, and it's not going to be as accurate as a quartz movement over the long run.

      Automatics are great dress watches, but not much else.

      Yeah, I guess so. Funny story though, the Ukrainians scammed a bunch of Brazilian mercs by offering them 2k a day to fight, didn't pay them up front, and then to avoid paying them, they sent the whole group to Bakhmut to get slaughtered by the Russian mercs who were also probably sent there to avoid paying too many dudes.

    Every watch I've owned outside of purely mechanical ones has died within a few months besides a couple pocket watches I tried when I started cooking. Those I usually ended up banging on a counter corner or something too many times, and soon after phones just made wrist watches obsolete for me. I had a few casios when I was younger, too. Died like the rest. My phones always go screwy too, but not like the watches, which just died. Maybe I'm cursed.

      Friend, if you can manage to kill a G-Shock, then you ARE cursed. Just look up videos of people trying to destroy them. They ran one over with a semi, and it held up and is in the guiness book of world records for being the only watch to withstand being run over by a goddamn truck.

      The DW5600 isn't that big. I'm also a wristlet and it's not comically large on my wrists, you could probably get a nato strap to further slim down the profile of the watch as a whole. I have a 91 as a backup watch but the backlight just sucks.

      Very hard to get a watch as small or light as FW91, there is a metal version A198 which is same size and almost as light. There really isn't anything else unless you want a woman's watch which will be a flimsy analog that costs $400.

I think originally these were around that $200 price point. Its nice to have solar charging and auto illumination when its dark so I don't have to push the light button. Other than that its no different than the current $50 version.

    Any recommendations for 20mm replacement bands for casios? I noticed the vinyl tends to break after 2-3 years which is fine but then I have to get a new watch cause the bands are like only like bucks cheaper after shipping. I tried a leather one once but it was too thick around the spring bar and didn't fit well.

      Get a NATO strap. they can be found very cheaply, especially if you buy a bunch and save on shipping costs. Casios are no longer as cheap as they were years ago. The price of an F-91W has doubled.

          The negative lcd screens have worse viewing angles in a lot of mixed lighting conditions in my experience. They're prevalent enough that you should be able to see one in person at a store but I'd say go for the normal gray/silver background if you're indifferent, if the negative screen is cool enough to get you to wear the watch then go for it. I only have one negative lcd screen anymore and it's an old ironman that lives in a junk drawer because I keep forgetting it's in there. If the negative screen is cool enough to get you to wear the watch then go for it.

          What I really want casio to do is put out more watches like the old twincept with analogue face under an lcd layer.

          When a product is listed as fulfilled by Amazon, that company is shipping stocks of their product to Amazon's warehouses where they're stored and shipped out from. Amazon doesn't keep that product separately at their warehouses though, and instead commingles that product with the same SKU product from Amazon and every other company that's fulfilled by Amazon and stores them in the same common location in their warehouse. How much product Amazon and the various companies that are fulfilled by Amazon have on hand is then just kept track of as a number and deducted accordingly while pulling from that common location in their warehouse. If Company A sends a shipment of counterfeit product to Amazon, you're now stuck with a situation where you can order from Amazon or any other number of companies fulfilled by Amazon no matter how reputable they are and get Company A's counterfeit product.

    I've never really been a watch guy.
    I own a F91W, Vostok Komandirskie, Elgin dress watch you can see through, and an Invicta Pro Diver. I've always just worn my F91W though.
    However I've been looking into field watches recently and am really split on what to get. I'm liking what I see from Seiko and Citizen, but I really want a mechanical watch (not auto, not quartz, not eco). I like the look of the classic Hamilton dial face, but I don't want to pay $400 for one, I'm looking more at $200 or less.
    Mainly looking for something that is analog, big numbers on every hour, shows date and day of week, mechanical, and most importantly durability in the field.
    Any ideas? Or am I just stuck with Hamilton?

      Mechanical isn't good for durability, though- insofar as watches go, it's the worst choice. Mechanical is great for dress watches, it's really interesting from the standpoint of, well, anybody that likes machines (which, taking into account what a gun is, and, at least, why I like them, immediately explains why there'd be some innate overlap between gun enjoyers and mechanical movement enjoyers), but it's not actually better, and it's far harder to service or do anything with. If you're actually, genuinely, seriously concerned about durability, a quartz movement (with radio adjusted time, if you're an autist about those few extra seconds, which will be less than a mechanical's offset anyways) especially the multi-year guaranteed battery lives, will always be more durable.
      Mechanical movements are a work of art, and of course they're not bad or anything, but, like, would you take a luger with you where you desired reliability, or would you grab an 1911 or just a glock?
      I get the idea of being able to wind your watch at any time sounds really nice, but you're comparing a solid state device to an entirely analog one full of parts you definitely aren't going to be able to service yourself

        The more I look into it, the more I think you're right. I watched some torture tests after I posted that, and wasn't impressed. Quartz really are the most reliable for the field.
        I think I'll just stick with my F91W for field use. I will one day get a nice dress watch but that's another question all together. I like my Invicta Pro Diver, but maybe I'll get something more expensive and not a straight rip off of a Rolex in design.

      If you want a mechanical watch, but not an automatic, the Hamilton khaki field is basically your only affordable option. As the other anon said, mechanical watches are more fragile than quartz, but some watches like seiko dive watches are fricking bulletproof. If something fricks me up hard enough to make my seiko stop working, then I’ll most likely be dead.

It’s very comparable to Citizen’s 200 dollar mechanical divers, with the same features.

      Jewelry is fundamentally homosexual and the only justification for a watch on a weapons board is if it shoots as does this one:

        Jewelry is a portable display of wealth that signals to potential mates not just that you're well-off but also that you're strong enough to defend your wealth (and, therefore, her and your oiffspring) from threats.
        It's so non-homosexual that it's almost obscenely biological. What's really gay is the modern trend of ultra-rich types like Marc Zuckerstein who insist on dressing like commoners, probably because they know their wealth has no basis in reality and they would have no recourse if someone took it for themselves.

    The NATO strap versions can catch on things and rip the watch apart. I'd recommend opening and resealing F-91Ws with silicone to increase the water resistance over time.

    What’s a good “rugged”/durable analog watch? I work in construction/the “skilled” trades and some secret squirrel jobsites I go to don’t allow us to have phones or smartwatches on our person so I end up having to hope that the security escort will be able to tell me the time.

      An analog G-Shock like

      Casioaks are hit-or-miss, but man do some of them hit.

      any ISO-certified dive watch, since shock resistance is part of the standard

      Analog watches are a lot more durable than people in this thread seem to think. Look into dive watches, they were used by professional divers for decades before diving computers were a thing. They often have a thicker case, lug guards, and recessed glass, plus a rotating bezel that you can use as an analog stopwatch/timer. I'm a big fan of the Citizen Promaster, classic looks, Japanese made, great starter watch and a bang for your buck.
