Casio Sports Gear STB-1000 Bluetooth Watches Offer Fitness Information Plus Phone Alerts
One of the most interesting workout watches so far this year is the STB-1000 "Sports Gear" collection of Bluetooth-enabled watches by Casio. These seem to be an answer to the question of "can I combine my fitness tracker with something that tells me if I have a new text message?" Casio extends the functionality of their existing?Casio G-Shock Bluetooth watches with the features of a fitness watch that connects to dedicated fitness apps on your iPhone (only).Hate the idea of having to charge your watch all the time but feel the need to be constantly connected while running or cycling? Unlike most Bluetooth-enabled smartwatches, the Casio Sports Gear STB-1000 uses a 2 year rated CR2032 battery versus a rechargeable battery that needs daily attention. Sadly the Casio Sports Gear STB-1000 does not feature solar battery charging at this time. Using Bluetooth 4.0, the Sport Gear watches are meant to be worn on your wrist while your iPhone is attached to your body. The watch is able to direct
Introducing: The Cartier Drive, A New Men's Watch With An Eye To The Past (Details, Official Pricing & Availability)
This could be the Cartier many of us have been waiting for. In fact, earlier today, when CNN asked each HODINKEE team member to pick one watch that they really liked from the day's presentations, it was the new-shape men's watch from Cartier – the Drive – that I chose. Why? Because I've been dying to find a modern day men's Cartier that fits me, and my taste. The Calibre Chronograph was a step in the right direction, the Calibre Diver even more so, but they were still a little bulky, a little sporty for me. I mean, I own great sports watches from Rolex, Omega, and others, so why buy a Cartier sports watch? That's not what Cartier is to me, but the Drive is exactly what Cartier is to me. It's beautiful, it's refined, it's masculine, and its movement is made in-house! And the price? You're gonna like it. 1 OF 11 The Drive is aimed squarely at men, and men with taste. The Drive de Cartier (Cartier Drive) is a vintage autom

Seamaster ranchero
Here is an interesteing watch i picked up on ebay, a seamaster in the ranchero case. Some semasters from the 1950's where made with the same movement and encased in the same case as the famous ranchero.

Decisions Decision 116610LN vs 126600
Decisions Decision 116610LN vs 126600So I have a brand new 2017 submariner date that I received from my wife as a wedding present, I've not worn it yet because she also allowed me to upgrade if I sold the sub. I could sell it and pick up an SD if I preferred the size. Im a bit torn because I love the sub but unfortunately it wears a bit on the smaller side for my wrist. Any idea what I can get for the sub, its brand new with stickers still on it, tags and all the warranty info, original box etc. Also would this be a substantial upgrade from sub to sea dweller?
