I might treat myself. £700, but don’t tell the Mrs

No need to worry. She won’t believe that anyone would pay 700 notes for that.

Is that a G-Shock for people who collect Horse brasses or something?

lol…

it’s like one of those Mondeos with extra shiny trim and stuff stuck on it.

G-Shock Vanden Plas…

It looks like a steampunk got hold of it.

£700. For a rather vulgar casio. Designed so it matches the buttons on your Barbour presumably?

I’m out…..

You like this watch and you have a missus? Well played sir!

It looks someone has been out with their Games Workshop paint collection.

£700 for that?

Hell no!

Scarily, this is £1180!

G-shocks should be cheap, and worn because of their toughness. If you’re spending £700, or more, on a watch, it should at least be a nice thing!

I don’t get the g-shock thing at all

I like a tough looking watch, but they are awful looking things

How about a nice belt to match it?

I don’t mind a G-Shock – but the cheaper end of the range is right for me. Certainly no more than £150.

You can pass it on to your children or let them fight for it at your funeral

Not sure about that one.

I guess if you have an A-team stripe on your Astra van this is the watch for you.

Nah!

I do quite like that and since it’s just after payday and I had a good night on Ebay I think I’d consider going mad and spendign as much as £50 on it.

You watch your mouth! (I actually bought new handles for mine to remove some of the faux chrome. But it still has all the plastic walnut. Classy stuff, Ford)

I concur.

(I got through to the finals of the Golden Demons back in 1989, although I’m not sure if that’s something to brag about)

New favourite thread.

Surely would need to be worn with one of those irony Wolf by Moonlight t-shirts?

Savages, the lot of you…

😀

Shouldn’t that be on the “Argh my eyes” thread? 😯

£700? …and I bet the date is still in the wrong format and impossible to change.

Oh and it’s not that bad from a design point of view. Curious how they stopped the plastic from melting when they dipped it in molten brass.

If we’re talking bronze watches, I’ll take one of these please:

Has the item in question be bought?

No, it hasn’t been bought!!!!

I should stay away from the internet when I’m pissed…

Could this be the first case of beer goggles being used on a watch?

I should stay away from the internet when I’m pissed…

If I had a penny etc etc . . . 😆

They use the same technology used to bake cookies without melting the chocolate chips. Only useful thing we ever got out of that flying saucer…

New from G-Shock..the Robot Wars ,World of Warcraft Gears of War edition.
Bet Putin has one.

For those of us who remember:

Is that a Lotus 88?

£700 for an ostentatious style statement that nobody will see? Surely the point of ostentation is to be seen?

“Start your own tradition”

“(Hopefully) I don’t own it, I’m just looking after it for the next generation”

to borrow, and paraphrase.

Best start to a monday morning in ages LOL
