The Baume Chrono is beautiful. While there is a little patina the creme dail is crisp and clean, very nice.
The Le Phere is something I have not seen before, it has a nice robust look. But what I like most about it, is the fact it shows use, if not heavy use! I'm a firm believer in wearing what you've got and as it's intended to be worn.

OK, this isn't everyone's cup of tea, but what a great price:

I have the white dial version of this and was very happy to get it for $305, a couple of years ago.
 
Here's my review - which has the same movement, but without the rotating bezel:

:D  

It looks great, love the white face, somehow looks cleaner crisper. That and I like the subtle pattern. Nice watch by the way

Will you be purchasing the MR-G?

I'm saving for one barring nothing else gets in the way

Of course you know I would not make a move without consulting the Great "G" Mak Daddy

Wow, that's gonna be epic! I haven't seen the third one you may purchase in person, but I just made it to Vegas, so maybe I can find it at the same location I found the other MR-G, while I'm out here for the next few days. I noticed that the one that you want is a limited edition, shown here:



This MR-G limited edition is the MRG-G1000DG-1A - I was able to find one (there may be more available on other websites) for $4,393, here: http://www.shoppinginjapan.net/mrg-g1000dg.

I've already got a nickname lined up for you... :bigsmile_face:

The only advice I could give right now if interested is for you to try out the MT-G and MR-G lineup if you can because the MT-G embodies more heft/weight and is larger in overall stature than the slightly slimmer and less weighty MR-G. The MR-G in fact doesn't quite feel like a regular G-Shock (neither does the MT-G), but the MT-G has the weight of a G such as a Rangeman, and the MR-G by contrast has the weight of a G such as the GDX 6900 series - the weight that feels more like an immensely durable luxurious timepiece.

THX Moe "G", hopefully at 6' and 240Lbs. weight and size won't be an issue. You were right about the Limited Editions running a wee bit more than non limited models

I'm shooting to back up $3K then I'll card the balance

Now about that new nickname let's hope it don't have "Sucker" in it
