So, for this week... I’m back to an ol’ favorite workhorse.
Dress or play, great watch.

Seiko makes some clean lookin watches. They are the bang for buck watches like Casio.

I'm not much into smartwatches, but I like the Casio sensor watches.

I want an outdoors activity watch with tons of sensor/features without being a smartwatch like the Casio.

I know you said not Casio... but this isn't exactly a 'smart watch'... just has a lot of features and sensors.

(Funny enough... the date says 4/29... today. But the photo was taken last year - on a Saturday, right after I bought it.)

I would never buy a quartz watch.........so Casio watches hold no interest for me. After they replace the battery and lose the water tight ability, you may as well throw them away. I would never consider a Casio in the same ballpark. The last Seiko watch I purchased still works, purchased in 1994.

Wow, Big !

Um... yes, and thanks.
But it may also have to do with the (relatively) small wrist and iPhone close-up throwing things a bit out of scale..

Well... for me, a time, place and purpose to all types. Beautiful, refined mechanical precision for some things... hardened multifunction quartz monsters for others.
