Casio Digital "God Tier" F91WG-9Q
Casio Vintage "Calculator Watch" CA-53WF-2B
Casio Vintage "Alien" A100WEGG-1A2
Casio Fishing Gear AQW101-1D-1AVDR

Sold the first two Casios in the list above and kept the A100 and the AQW101. Bought the first three Casios out of YouTube hype. Kept the A100 as I like the gilt accents and the metallic looking resin case.

I think it looks better than the full-metal A1100. However, I'm feeling that my A100's days are numbered. Been having thoughts of letting it go and get the G-Shock AWM-500 to complete my full-metal series collection. Or should I get the A1100 instead?🤔

The AQW101 fishing watch was my late grandfather's watch. Found it in his drawer after he passed away this year. Despite efforts from my watchmaker to revive the watch, the module is a goner 😱. The dead old batteries have leaked and corroded the internals.

When it was working for about week after swapping out the old batteries 😔:

Special feature - My first and my only Swatch which I bought in 2014 (when it was about 40% cheaper than current lowest priced Sistem51 at retail 🤨, no Omega X Swatch and no Blancpain X Swatch).

The Swatch Sistem 51 Sistem Red ref. SUTR400. And....I already sold it off (no regrets - my second "Swiss Made" watch).
