Well my old casio is finally broken after 12 years and a lot of new batteries and straps. So i want a new wrist watch. But it has to suit me (geek watch). So can you help me find one? What I am looking for: DIGITAL watch stainless steel or titanium straps (leather might be acceptable) Can be old school ( like this one) atomic time synchronisation under 200$-300$ geek extra's (usb, bluetooth, ...) must look nice and professional (I am a system administrator so geek fits the image  ) Not looking for. Binairy watch (have one ) analog watch. 700$ watches :s rubber straps (they don't last long) I loved this one but it is quite expensive.  |

I always wanted a casio G- Shock or whatever they were called, they seemed pretty solid and the male watches are very though looking. Personally I'm not found of guys that show off their financial status ;D

Well since I joined the workforce I have some money to spend on toys  I also like the Gshock. But my sweat must be like acid. It eats trough the rubber strap every 1.5 years (maybe it's me). So the bling bling is just that I want a stainless steel or titanium strap on the watch. Sadly digital watches and stainless steel/ titanium are rare. |

You can buy a $5 Spidey watch at any local department store. That sounds about right for your geeky needs! |

My Geek Watch usually consist of watching Elliot through the web-cam I installed in his bathroom! |
