Impromptu hike

Took some clients on a hike today. It was rough on me lol but the guys helped me push through. All together felt WAY better after. This calls for a celebration and ya know what that means, in need of getting a hiking watch!! Gshocks come to mind. What's y'all's thoughts on a good hiking watch for this year?

A couple of weeks ago I hiked the Queen Charlotte Track in NZ with my Pagani 1751 Tudor Ranger-alike, did the job very well. But probably not as well as a G-Shock, even if it does have 200m WR.

Right on. I'm still unsure of what to get. Gshock just came to mind is all. Idk what else would be nice for an outdoorsy watch to go on adventures with..field watch maybe?

Indeed, a field watch would be the obvious choice; tough, relatively small and easy to read.

If I were being sensible, I'd buy a cheap one on a NATO strap on the grounds that it won't matter if it gets knocked or damaged and it probably wouldn't fall off.

But hang sensible, right? So I might have a good look at a Hamilton Khaki, or maybe a real Ranger :)

I know you have your Gs but for outdoor stuff go for a ProTrek.

You’re welcome. I very highly recommend either thebPRW3500 and the PRG270. Both are fantastic.
