This thread is about the appreciation of watches, as well as the micro-engineering and materials engineering that are required to make a functioning timepiece.

I really need to F5 before replying, yeah I need a square. Thing is though I am only trying to get 1 of each g-shock model, so buying a square isn't an easy decision. If the radio tower doesn't go down in 2019 for america, then I'll probably get this. Carbon fiber with titanium back, if not then I will probably get a newer one with a combi bracelet.

More content. You can have private conversations. No captchas. Some people are only-discord at this point. Other topics too if you are into that.

I have seen multiple people say this. why not add to the discussion in either place instead of bitching about it. Last time i saw someone bitching in this thread about discord was talking about how people didn't know about some technical topic. Instead of correcting them or explaining it here they bitched about how stupid other people were. The thread is made up of only us. There is not horological jesus that will come down and start posting good watch related content. Be the change;etc.
