Ah, that's a good thing then. Now to decide between a Rangeman and a Wenger, or a Mudman (9300) AND a Wenger...


I never really loved the Mudmans because they are asymmetrical, but a Rangeman on sale would be a great buy.  As for charging indoors, yeah, it will charge, but not fast as being outside in the full sun.  Maybe a special sun light would help make the watch(es) charge faster. 
 
Let us know what you get!

Apparently, in my sleeping pill haze, I ordered not only the G7900, but also the G9100 (the Gulfman) from ebay and some Singaporian seller. I had no recollection of it until I logged my bank. I suppose they don't have the same cancellation policy at ebay as they have on Amazon - so I guess I'm stuck with that particular purchase. No worries, just a bit of a meltdown from my wife is expected. It's okay, the 9400 vs Wenger debate is still up for the 25th this month. Luckily I am selling my Denon D2000 so these sleeping pill adventures on ebay and amazon aren't too damaging. Still, better start blocking certain sites after a certain time for me.
 
Luckily I love G-Shocks and cheap headphones rather than Rolexes and Audezes.
 
So, awaiting the arrival of:
 

 
I love the color scheme of whitish grey, black and red. Can you tell?

Yeah I can tell, Coq de Combat, whew! :smile: I have yet to see a Gulfman worn out and about in the U.S. (Not regularly sold at the large department stores).

Enjoy your watches!

It does look pretty snazzy. I guess we will get to find out for ourselves once the watch is available for us regular folk in the next upcoming months.

Seems like a fun techy watch to buy if you're in the Apple Eco system already. Reminds me of my Tissot T-Touch, a geeky watch you can wear while working out or with a suit. For people who have more expensive watches already this could be something to wear when you don't want to mess up your better stuff which is what i plan on using this for. I love how all the tech blogs are ripping it for not being water proof, silly cats there is no watch that is water proof!

You may be right, but this video makes a pretty compelling argument. :bigsmile_face:

Many watches can go down to crazy depth but nothing is waterproof, it will break at some point with pressure. I used to have a Breitling Seawolf that could do 10,000 ft. Never did that myself but i did jump out of a plane with it on and we both survived.

I miss my Panerai PAM0112. Now I'm sporting a Marina Militaire knockoff.
 
The Bell & Ross Hydromax allegedly goes down to 33,000 feet and it's still rated as being only water resistant!

I purchased 3 G-Shocks this weekend - 2 on eBay for a great deal (won 2 bidding auctions), as these particular models are not sold in the U.S. - yet at least.
 
The third G is one that I have been wanting ever since I saw it on the interwebs a few months ago.  It is currently going for twice its price on auction sites, but I was able to find one at a department store at South Coast Plaza.  They call this...The Iron Man Watch:

@moedawg140...very nice Ironman

 
Thanks, Wokei, I appreciate it.
 
The other 2 that I won/bought are two gold variances.  I'll post pictures of those once I receive them.
