    My first G Shock was a titanium banded one.... It somehow ended up in a sink garbage disposal getting chopped up for 5-10 seconds. Pulled it out... Band destroyed. Watch still keeping time.

    But really if you're thinking $450 is a lot for a watch...you haven't really looked at watches...

    The thing is about watches is that the same movement that is in a 200.00 watch can also be in a 70K watch. I have a few that are "off" brands that share the same ETA movement as some well known brands and I love them. Yes you are paying for workmanship, crafting, and quality in most regards between those though lol.

    My collection consists of Movado, Locman, Rado, G-Shock, BMW/Tissot, and then the "off" brands like an automatic Von Dutch, Diadora, and a few others; none of which are hugely expenive IMO. I'd like to add a Baume & Mercier, Ball, Eterna (ETA movement pre Chinese purchase), and Zenith. Most of those are attainable...

    If the amount of time it took to release the iPhone 6 plus is any indication, you should have some cool gadget accessories in about 4 years cuz that's how long it took apple to figure out people don't want those tiny phones anymore.

    I know the Gear will work with my Note 3 though. Not durable enough though and I'm not sure how I feel a out charging my watch every day.

    Only high dollar watch I want is a Rolex Submariner because I spent almost a decade as a submariner.

    Look at Amazon for a g shock. Best prices by far. This will probably be my next watch.
    www.amazon.com/dp/B004JIBCZG/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_nZfHub0PNHDST

    My digital g shock gets worn all the time. Almost wore it with my suite last night but decided no watch. People always compliment it and they are not your dorky, cheap digital watches from back in the day.

    So here's a question, can you have too much caster? In an effort to delay installing the body lift or trimming the fenders I'm considering cranking the caster to something like 3.5 to 4.0 degrees to keep the tires from making contact with the back of the front fenders. Any ideas?
