Yea I was kinda surprised how well it worked. I bought the bonklip for another watch, but the fitting didn't feel so comfortable with the weight of that watch's head, and I stopped wearing it. Then the other day I tried it on the SNKL23, and I liked it! I'm on a bit of bonklip kick. I put a different bonklip bracelet on my Sarb035 too!

Yea I agree, being able to pop off the bezel seems to be the less invasive route. Though, I'm just not sure if the SNKL23 was meant to have its bezel popped off.

I believe the crystal diameter is 30mm. This is the crystal that I bought https://usa.crystaltimes.net/shop/products/ct063/

That's great! I miss it already!

commented on How often do you swap watches? ·

I usually wear the same watch for about 1-2 weeks before switching (disregarding the times when I temporarily switch to my G-Shock GW5000u for 1-2 hours for working out). I personally find it hard to appreciate my watches if I wear them for a few hours or less than a day. Rotating every 1-2 weeks also helps reduce the urge to buy as much since there isn’t enough wrist time to have a bigger collection.

My G-Shock Titanium Virtual Armor. Solar powered and all the usual functioning of a G-Shock, plus it has finishing and design that I can still marvel at and appreciate.
