Yesterday (January 8th) was my birthday for the xxth time....
Coming to the age like this, i don't expect any present to arrive....however on the eve of the day, i was presented with a dream birthday gift from my beautiful wife....
If you have been following my blog, you would notice on how much I wanted this watch....I have put up review on it and have even include it at #30 of my top desire (so no need for technical review here).....Hence wifey make a very brilliant decision to get the G-Shock G1200 for my birthday....Thank you luv....u know me well...also in addition, which is the best part, of all the color/model option available for this G1200, she choose the right one...the blue marker...the one i been dreading for long....
So seriously what with the obsession
This is a watch that many watch collector would not have the desire to own...For once, it is a quartz movement and does not come cheap either....But i am this kind of collector who has interest on all type of watches. I am not a purist who pursue only mechanical movement of certain brand. Be it a china made movement, i dont have any problem liking it.If i like it, then i want it.....Seriously
I think the main attraction must come from the design. Yes this one stated as aviation series and to commemorate G-Shock association with the air racing series (a race between airplane in quest for air daredevil) but design wise it has also DNA from other thing
In certain angle, i couldn't help to notice that, like the GA-100 ( in which dub as Bumble Bee of Transformer) this one feel like Megatron...The coolest villain ever....compare the following picture...Oh yes that also tell I am a techy kind of person...I love gadget, i love technology and i love the robotic feel
Megatron Above - and it transformation into a G-Shock below
The whole design also has a very robotic feel , with a dash of stealth military mode
