/ 2 min read
Last Updated:If you’ve seen me in person, you’ve undoubtedly noticed the white G-Shock on my wrist. It doesn’t beg for attention—it commands it.
Here’s why I choose this timepiece over my collection of automatics, and why you should consider one before collectors make it impossible to find.
The Power of Japanese Engineering
There’s something profound about objects that accomplish their purpose with quiet perfection. My teenage self would be proud of this choice. It’s Japanese engineering at its finest—where complexity yields to elegant simplicity.
The Details Matter
Imagine a watch
- Theoretical unlimited battery life.
- Can be calibrated and tracked via Bluetooth from your phone.
- Doesn’t assault you with jam-spamming notifications like smartwatches. Respects your attention.
- Solar-powered with a white receptive screen. The kind of innovation that seems obvious only after someone shows you it’s possible.
- Offers a world clock for any city you choose
- All these capabilities packed into less than 45g. So light that its presence on your wrist fades from consciousness.
- It’s G-Shock (scratch-proof, 20 ATM waterproof). Equipment for astronauts and adventurers alike.
The Most Profound Truth
Price
All this technology for under $150. The greatest innovation isn’t just technological—it’s delivering extraordinary value at a price point that makes you question the fundamental assumptions of the watch market.
This isn’t just a timepiece. It’s a lesson in how great products should be: functional, beautiful, durable, and accessible.
