      @@mistadopeman my main problem with pieces under $200 is material quality. And it's quite impossible to get an accurate perception of it from the video (I mostly mean stainless steel). So in my mind resin-plastic G-Shock is always a better option for this price range.

      @@user-tr7vv2gw6x I agree. They use special effects that don’t reflect the product accurately. But yeah, G-Shock is G-Shock. Us watch nerds pick up on the most minute details.

    Excellent presentation.
    1. I purchased the Betucci DX3 a few weeks ago for under $90 delivered. Field watch had to be analog, 40 mm or under, quartz. Protected crown.
    2. I purchased the Bulova corporate in December 2023 for under $80 delivered. Analog, 40 mm or under, quartz. Nearly minimalist. Office watch.
    My criteria are not going to be yours. An older friend is single, no children, professional and licensed parachute rigger. Spends the winter as a ski rescue person. He displayed a $370 Seiko field watch that I would have wanted 45 years ago when I was in Afghanistan.
