When I was a little kid this was the "it" watch. If you owned this watch you were cool. Almost tempted to buy it again.

Too  funny!  I had that very same watch.  I was never cool, though

When I was a lad, the watch to have was the very early LED digital ones, where you had to press a button to display the time... rubbish, they were.

For the tests I've taken (where you are recorded and have to use an ID and palm scan to enter and leave the testing room), you have to take everything off except your clothes (including a watch) and put them in a locker.

I understand.  Yeah, back in the day, those calculator watches were seen as pretty nerdy (at least where I lived), but nowadays they are a novelty of sorts, fashion statement even, as they even have gold versions on sale at American Apparel.

  Guys,
 
I am thinkin of getting a watch for everyday use at the office. I have a Speedy Pro, a dress Maurice Lacroix and a Tissot T-touch Expert, but want something casual in between T-Touch and the other watches. i have found a nice looking Tissot PR 516 GL Automatic.
 
What do you think of this watch?

How do you like your G-Shock Orange GX56?
 
I purchased mine a few years back, and since then I haven't seen any more for sale at any brick and mortar store other than the one I found mine at.

My sentiments exactly! Are you looking at getting another G? Another one that is almost or just as rugged is the Rangeman series, albeit it does cost more, but has barometric, elevation and compass sensors with Multi Band 6 as well.

Me current fav.....titanium and stainless steel of Citizen Ecozilla

Yeah, haven't had any issues with the resin turning bad or changing colors, but I do not just leave them around in the open air.  I keep them in a plastic container and just pull one out based on my mood, as I have almost every color in the rainbow.  Can't wait to get one of the six gold colored G's that are coming out soon.
