There's no way you're getting a real, new G-shock for $12.

You're right, I was accidentally exaggerating a little. I just checked my Amazon order history and mine was 40 bucks. still unbelievably cheap for a watch that is bomb proof. ordered mine in 2019. I think I've worn it 90% of the time since then. still going strong. It's beaten out fitbit's and Garmin instincts.

I really wish they made a health tracker without a watch on it like the old original fitbit bracelets.

I would just wear the G-Shock plus the health tracker bracelet be perfectly happy.

I got an Amazfit Neo for $30 or so, it's been amazing. Lasts for a month on a charge and has fitness bits.

I miss the hayday of fitbit so much.

100% in the garmin camp now though.

He's probably thinking about the F-91W but even that is at least 20 Euros now.

I bought an F-91W after destroying my M5610BC for whenever I'm messing around in the yard. It's great! So cheap that I don't worry about getting dirt in it, scratching the bezel, or whatever. It keeps great time, is easy to read, and weighs nothing. What's not to like for that price???
