Casio G-Shock GW9400 Rangeman Watch
Casio has announced a new addition to their Master of G collection, the GW9400 Rangeman. Essentially a step up from a Mudman or GW9200 Riseman, the Rangeman employs a similar case design but incorporates most of the features normally associated with the Pro Trek series. This is a rather important new watch as the Riseman has been a very popular G-Shock model for the last few years. The Rangeman sports Casio's Triple Sensor, which provides altimeter, barometer, and compass data among a host of additional features.

An unbelievable story
Since I have been a member here, I have done a lot of reading and learned a lot. Not just about Rolex in general, but other brands as well. Unfortunately earlier this year before I joined the forum, I seem to have purchased a fake Breitling Navitimer 01. At the time, I thought I took the proper percautions by having the watch verified by an AD in Beverly Hills that amazingly enough serviced the watch and actually has a warranty on it. I was guaranteed by the certified watchmaker at the AD that it was 100% authentic and I had nothing to worry about because he serviced the watch himself. It wasn't until I put the watch up for sale on eBay that I was notified by a member that it wasn't authentic. I didn't believe it at first and I was directed to the Breitling source forum for further discussion. Even at that point I didn't believe them. I then took the watch to the AD and had the watchmaker reverify the watch again. He opened the case and confirmed that it was the watch that he completed

116520 aaaaaaand.....?
I'm drooooling at the possibility of a DD40 as my second and (if achieved) final Rolex for a loooong time.Poll question being: If you had the 116520(white dial), what would you reach for next?WG with Blue dial?ORRG with Olive dial?Rando third option being your suggestions! Yes I'm still banging this idea around in my head. The incoming is...definitely coming soon; but since I'm still waiting for the actual day I may as well torture the forum and bounce a little more off my favorite digital geek squad. Pics for good measure!
