G -Shock ...

Poor hubby. I made him burn some daylight working on this one (DW 56RT)for me yesterday. I unearthed it from his digital hoard and asked him to put in a new battery.

He went the distance and took off the band to clean up the prior owner's paint splatters and general grunge. Then spent more than an hour wrestling the band back on. (Lots of cursing.) At which point I Googled a manual to set the time... and an hour later I decided I don't care for how it fits.

Oopsie. Well, he can have it back for his box of things that "work" and I can sneak in another repair when he forgets to be annoyed about this one. LOL There's a Casio Forester in the hoard that looks promising.....

There are 2 Foresters which I've been debating with myself over recently too. The trouble is that one looks like an AQ which is better in black, and the other is really just another MRW-200 in beige too.

The top one is the one we have on hand. It takes 2 batteries apparently. Hubby was working on that one and then diverted to the G Shock.

Apparently it's meant for soccer. Lots of cool timing options and a world timezone feature.
