My CASIO(s)

Some time ago, after getting completely fed up with my Apple Watch, I wanted to go in the opposite direction.

I was looking at the Garmin Instinct 2X. Something simpler. Something that wouldn’t need to be charged every day, updated all the time, or constantly remind me that it’s a tiny computer strapped to my wrist.

Then, as a sort of temporary step in between, I got a CASIO F-105W.

I actually wrote about it in my first post here.

The funny thing is that I expected it to be just a temporary watch. Something cheap to wear while I figured out what I actually wanted.

Instead, I became slightly obsessed with how ridiculously simple it is.

A few months later, that hasn’t really changed.

But I’m starting to worry that I’m developing some typical CASIO-user behaviour.

I saw someone wearing a G-Shock Original DW-9052 recently.

And…

I don’t know.

I just love them.

That chunky, slightly ridiculous shape looks like something I could wear for another twenty years and still like.

Of course, now I want one.

The funny thing is that it would basically do the same things as my F-105W.

But it’s different. :D
