SMH - A watch that's been everywhere, man

On a traveling watch... sent around the country for people to wear it and photograph it.



A watch that's been everywhere, man  

Nothing new though. In fact it's pretty old by now. Over on Watchuseek they've been doing it for years (maybe), definitely on the Russian and Affordable watch sub-forums.

For example - The Traveling Vostok, who wants it?

Choosing a G-Shock

An excellent and very useful WUS forum thread on choosing G-Shocks, especially for first-time buyers or collectors wishing to expand into Casio G-Shock collecting -- START HERE -- Choosing your G-Shock (link).

Lots of useful information:

Explanation of lettered prefixes - the most important, such as: DW, GW, G, as well as all the others. 

Classification by series: 2300, 5000 (5600), 6900, 7000, 8900 and

Master of G

And the discontinued Masters of G.

Very handy... for me too as I am thinking of buying my first G-Shock, I need to have at least one. at the moment leaning to something out of the 30th anniversary edition.

Link: Guide to Seiko's Main Collectible Wristwatches

An excellent Spanish watch forum thread on Seiko's main models (google-translated into English here).

With pictures, listed are Seiko watches with their own unofficial or semi-official (sometimes even official) names, not just letters and numbers, and they may even be arranged in alphabetical order, top to bottom. But official Seiko designations are also given, so you can easily find them, should you want to do so.

I find these "named" Seikos more interesting -- what with names like "monster", "tuna can", "alpinist", "alien", etc. Well worth a read and a look and in fact can be used as a reference, hence this post. I am definitely going to add some Seikos to my collection some time soon.
