Titanium G-Shocks: Peak G-Shock and/or Irrational Purchase?

The Forstner OG Flat Link has the stretch links while the heftier Forstner Contemporary Flat Link does not.  Both are very comfy, with the OG being closer to the vintage OEM Speedy bracelets while the Contemporary is more like the modern OEM ones (Ed White, 50th Anniversary, ’57, etc.).

Go find that G-shock a new home if you don’t have a bond with it and let someone else enjoy it!

Purged 5 watches from my collection (now down to 4) and it’s been liberating.  I don’t feel that tinge of regret of not giving a watch enough wrist time or the burden of keeping a number of infrequently worn solar watches charged up.
