    Long time since I bought a G-Shock (with the higher prices and all, IMO they lost a lot of their appeal) -- but I instantly fell in love when I saw this for the 1st time:

    c) Casio.de

    Even though I think having Bluetooth on a G-Shock is stupid (if I need to keep my phone near the watch all the time I might as well just look on my phone for telling time) I love that design and the features -- they finally managed to put a 24 hr timer AND 24 hr stopwatch in a solar ana-digi G-Shock, even though they lost the Snooze alarm in the process -- I wonder why they can't get it right EVERY time, but oh so close. So today I snatched one up for half of MSRP slightly used on the bay. Can't wait. Stupid thing is -- my phone won't even work with the app. Would have preferred Multiband 6 but I heard they shut down the tower in the US so I can understand that Casio walks down the BT-route. Should rather go with GPS for time-setting but the GPS-models are way overpriced IMO.
