Title: The ABC adventure....
Post by: mnazri.tan on July 04, 2012, 09:47:14 AM
recently I decided to change my watch collections direction (not that I have many) and thinking I would like to have some collection of nice digital watch. I have a few G-Shock that I am keen with and some Protrek model. Then i realized that there is this ABC watch category.

So last week, I got myself the Casio SGW-400H.

Not exactly an ABC (dont have the compass) but it come with the A and B. I am still trying to get the hang of it. But being able to read and predict the weather is kindda cool. Unfortunately, It couldn't satisfy my lust for the ABC....I am thinking of getting the PRG 130Y for I love the stealth look of it, but come across with this PRG-240 recently with great price.... So this arrived today

Am_Sober - Thermometer is included in both watch
Meoramri - Yes, 22mm resin band, the feel of it is like any other G-Shock watch, light and comfortable...

anyway, envy you....you have nice wrist size...mine is about 7.3...lot of people asked me why i like big watches, and why i hate anything below 44mm....i have bloody big wrist....even 44mm look small on me....

hehehehe....Protrek is just nice for me in term of size....

and yes , you are correct
not many asian can pull protrek nicely..... and for me, most of the time when i like to try my friend's watch especially with bracelet, the watch cant even pass my palm let alone wrapping it on my wrist.....sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...susah la

my wrist is 6.75 inches...
my protrek is a monster from lug to lug is 54mm...
50.5 in diameter..
