    Yeah this one gets a beating. Says water resistant to 20bar, some expert may want to convert that to water depth

    My back up g shock was a freebie with a trailer load of pink baths 10ish yrs ago... Think it's had 1 new battery. It's a damn good watch but it's just only good for time and an alarm!

    Bought the Mudmaster G Shock. Compass good, not sure about temp, alt and barometer. Solar powered so never needs a battery. My old Casio lasted 10 years.

    Don't like the idea of a radio update... Etc thingy just something to drain the battery, if it's out a few minutes it's not the end of the world

    Tissot make nice watches with all the bells and whistles, I have one somewhere but unfortunately it has "Love forever, Amy XoXo" engraved on it and, when I most recently checked, her name definately isnt Amy anymore so its been thrown in the back of a draw somewhere.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
