About

I love watches. I love the way they look, the way they work, the stories behind them. I've had people call me a watch-a-holic. I'm constantly looking for "new" vintage watches to buy and thought I would use these pages to show the best finds of the day. But, you better act fast before I buy it out from under you!

Looking for something specific?

 

Something for the G-shock collector: Two skateboard decks with Casio G-Shock graphics. Okay, not exactly Casio G-shocks but close enough to create Cease and Desist letters from Casio Corporate, I’m sure. The first white watch graphic is clearly a Casio DW-5600C model G-Shock, one of Casio’s earliest designs from 1987.  The second yellow watch graphic is clearly a Casio GW-6900 model G-shock, a later design from 2009. These clean decks are from Speed Demons, and are called “Time Shocks”.  I love when skateboard companies “appropriate” from companies and culture like this. Much cheaper than real g-shocks, these boards are on auction from pimpskate090 on ebay, at a Buy-It-Now for $30.
