If you rely on a watch to add manliness, something's terribly wrong.

I ain't no watch snob, but my personal watch is a Citizen Eco-Drive, Cronograph, prepetual callender. Titanium is so much more lighter than stainless steel. I have an elcheapo casio digital for knocking about and for offshore work (metal bracelets are not allowed most plants)

I personally like the Tissot watches, which are racing inspired. Some of the display cases are out of this world, resembling a racing helmit. That or a Tag might be my next watch.

do you receive updates with it locally?
i was considering buying a g-shock atomic mudman, but if i cant get the auto updates it makes no sense buying it........

To be honest, it's one of the three things i don't like about the watch... I wouldn't really call em issues cause it's not that big a deal.

The update system works at night at around midnight to 4AM when the signal's strongest, but even then I don't always get the update...

Other thing is because it is a US Atomic, you can only get the US selected cities which auto update... any other selection will shut ooff the updating system process. Now you can use it provided no mountains/ buildings blocking you and you have it near a window at night, but then your world times would be off dependent on the city you choose and i think that was poor of Casio IMHO.

Only other minor gripe I have is that like most casios it has a resin case... I bought it primarily cause I wanted a full metal watch... resin parts dry rot with me over time (though my last watch lasted something like 7 years without falling apart but still). Despite this it's a strong watch and it's had some knocks and bumps from me when working on the cars or handywork around the house... and still looks good enough to wear with a suit.

thanks for the details....

just to point out though, the updating system only functions at night with the US based station, i guess if it updates even once per week or fortnight thats good enough....also the one i was thinking about getting is able to receive signals from all 6 stations globally.........since i travel a lot, that should be handy.
and lastly, i paid about $16US, for a resin band, resin inner, and resin outer bezels for my current watch...........although it took about 3 months to get here, it now gives me about 3 or 4 years of reliable usage........
you can get parts from http://www.pacparts.com or http://www.americanperfit.com/parts/parts.htm they are both casio spare parts dealers.....
i also like the fact that its solar......besides the fact that i wont have to buy batteries, most watches loose some water tightness when being serviced.......

this is the one i wanted.....i'm not really a fan of digital watches, but its one of very few i know will withstand the abuse that i'll put it through while at work........
