Born an Edward. Known as Eddie all through school. Now I’m Ed. Where will this name shortening end and should I be worried? Always liked watches but only really got the bug in the last couple of years - typically in the sub £300 range.

That’s a great size comparison. I think some G-Shocks are so big that the Casioak looks relatively small so it’s great to see some real world context. Thanks for sharing.
Totally agree about the G-Shock/truck analogy!, funnily enough, I really like the simplicity and value of the Timex Expedition range too and was looking at them earlier today.
I keep reaching this conclusion too. Both look good and great to hear that you find them comfortable. 👌🏼
Very true, particularly about always having other technology at hand. With that in mind, simple probably is best. 👍🏼
