Leather Zulu on Black & Gold Casio G-Shock GA-300

Looks rugged, doesn't it? A friend's leather Zulu on a Black & Gold G-Shock GA-300 with a 24mm strap converter.

This leather Zulu strap makes the G-shock GA-300 look so much more rugged and outdoor-sy. According to him it also makes the watch so much more comfortable.

This makes a nice upgrade for anyone thinking about changing the strap on their G-Shock, but bear in mind that there needs to be a strap converter that connects the watch case itself to the strap.

New Leather Strap for my Orient 'Wingman' CER2D001B

Got a new tan leather strap for my Orient 'Wingman' today.

The 'Wingman' gives a very clear and very readable dial, this version with the PVD so it remains readable in bright conditions. You could read the time from a mile away. And many times I have found people trying to read the time off my wrist as a result. Either that, or they are admiraing the Orient 'Wingman' CER2D001B.

The stealthily designed date window lines up with the white line at the 3 O'Clock, so it is not apparent at first glance but is there when you look closer, which is a nice touch.

Is there more nice touches? Yeah. Many in fact, but one stood out that I just found out : when you adjust the time, as you push the crown back after setting the time, the minute falls back to EXACTLY where it is supposed to be accordingly to the seconds hand! E.g. if the seconds hand is at the 30 position, the minute hands falls to halfway between the minute markers!

How about that for nice touches?
