Snowy afternoon + Mod kit just arrived = #NWA

This impromptu “CasiOffshore” is thanks to a bargain bin (ie ebay listing with no bids haha) G-Shock in a Halloween color way, that apparently no one wanted. 🎃

Wow, that's a neat-looking G-Shock. I don't know why so many people base decisions on straps. Watch straps / bracelets are SO replaceable, LOL 😀 Great find! 👍 Congratulations! 😎

Thanks! And so true! It’s wild how a new strap or simple mod can totally change a piece.

Exactly. My son got a Casio chronograph recently, and he took off the jubilee bracelet, and replaced it with the black, rubber strap that used to be on his Casio Arnie... it looks AMAZING! And now that he's seen how good it looks with a black, rubber strap, he has decided to spring for a black, LEATHER strap, which he thinks (and I agree!) will look even better.

I ordered a Pepsi Duro the other day from Wal-Mart, and it is due in the mail tomorrow. I also ordered a navy-blue strap from NATO (which will take a day or three longer to arrive) which I plan to swap out as soon as it arrives. Straps can really make the difference in the aesthetics of a watch. 😀

Here is a picture of the two Casios:

The one on the right is the Arnie; it used to have a black, rubber strap. He removed it, and replaced it with a bracelet he got from Amazon.

The one on the left is the Chronograph; it came with a steel, jubilee bracelet. He removed it, and replaced it with the black, rubber strap from the Arnie.

Don't they look awesome? He has a good eye for aesthetics. 😎
