Some watch shots

I Still need to get a Pelagos.

That watch looks the bidness and is now COSC certified. Kinda surprised they haven't added a new color variant. Maybe that's a release next month.

Rolex just introduced the Land Dweller, its first all-new watch in 13 years. It looks like every other integrated bracelet sports watch, only 5 years late to the party. I happen to like integrated bracelet designs, for the most part. This one has a nice bracelet and case shape, but the dial is completely overdone and the numeral indices are all out of balance with having only the 6 & 9 on the dial. Maybe they'll make a no-date version at some point and add the 3 to the dial. The cyclops doesn't look right on this style of watch, IMO. If you're into the technical aspect of watches, the movement in this watch is very impressive and runs at 5hz.
Do I want one? Fuck no. Buy a PRX for about 2.5% of the price without having to wait on a list for 3 years to get it.

@YellowSnow Tudor Pelagos Ultra for your 1000m dives.
-
This showed up in my feed the other day. I hate it.
But I'm pour and would never buy a new Rolex except for Mrs Snow (wishing we got her a Cartier instead).
Long Tudor!

I just need the 100 M Pelagos for swimming pools and snorkling with reef sharks and sting rays.

*500m
-
I know. But I'm making a joke about the depths to which I take watches.
-
This is hot, my problem with the pelagos (and most Tudors) is the thickness, I'm thinking that at 43mm it might be a little better balanced.

New watch. Picked up this DWH-5600 G Shock on clearance at Fred Meyer for $180. Could not pass it up as a replacement for my DW-5600 that randomly had condensation in it one time recently, and also had the lcd display go blank for a few seconds a week prior to that.
Solar, tracks a bunch of different fitness markers including @YellowSnow'S favorite VO2 max, sleep rhythm, etc and syncs it all up to the phone to log the data, etc.

How accurate is the HR monitor you think?
I need something for the MT bike and I hate Apple watches.
-
I haven't paid close enough attention to that function, yet, to really say definitively. I used it for one run and, from what I've seen on gym equipment, it seemed like the HR range was pretty accurate. The resting rate is pretty spot on, for sure. You can also set up alarms based on your desired HR range, etc so you know if you're outside your preferred range.
An Apple Watch definitely is not going to be durable for mountain biking. One spill or drop and that thing is probably toast.
-
I'll never buy an Apple Watch EVER. But this seems like a good mt biking, skiing, yard work solution.
My current ski watch is my Omega which is a bit much.
-
Also, there are probably other fitness watches that do the same as this, maybe more, and maybe for a little cheaper. But they aren't going to be as cool looking and won't be a G Shock.

3 or 4 years late to the party, but I finally picked up a Moonswatch (Mission On Earth variant, which is supposed to be a play on the northern lights). Swatch makes it a pain in the ass to actually buy these as they're almost exclusively limited to Swatch stores and the nearest to the Seattle area is Vancouver, BC. Some color for the summer and the fake aventurine dial actually has some sparkle under light and does a decent job of looking like a starry night. I put an aftermarket strap on it as the factory velcro piece is awful.
