Some of the collection

Bzilla

From left to right:

  1. Citizen chronograph. Pretty cool, despite it's dated looks. Thrift store find! It's so weird! Totally doesn't fit in with anything I wear. Almost retro interpretation of "Retro Futuristic."
  2.  Casio Royale. Another thrift store score, got some polywatch on it which helped a lot. 
  3.  Seiko SNK807. Got this around last Xmas sales. First automatic. Pretty cool. I want a brushed metal band for it. It doesn't get a ton of wrist time because I like my watches to be gadgety.
  4. Seiko 8t63-00t0. Got this one around Xmas too with a gift card. I was really impressed by the SNK and after seeing a youtube video of a much more expensive Seiko chronograph I decided to try  a budget version. This seems like the most Japanese watch in this lineup. The amount of layers and textures on the face is amazing. Crazy sweeping stopwatch function with the fly back reset. Came on a nice nato band, but didn't dig it, so got this leather strap from a mall kiosk. 
  5.  Casio G-Shock GW-M5610. The older version, but got it for 60 or 70 bucks. Theoretically the only watch I would ever need. The watch I set all my other watches to.
  6.  Casio G-Shock GAS-100. So chonky! Every time I go to Costco I talk myself out of buying the mudmaster they have there by reminding myself i have almost the same watch, but not in that tacticool style. The G Shocks are on a Ruike i like, but it's just a bit too big for pocket carry.

You have a good decent collection right there all of them are good watches. Can't never go wrong with Casio G shock. I might have to check in the thrift store too. I sometimes see and find something nice and rare in the flea markets as well.

Ah yeah that's a good one, and that RadioShack logo is the stuff right there.  Thanks! Yeah I got 5 more g shocks in addition to the 2, some kind of insanity
