Just wanted to say this watch continues to have 100% wrist time since it arrived. Beautiful watch. Your video represents the color very accurately. At least on my screen anyway. I bought an authentic black dlc bezel and bracelet to switch it up once in awhile. IMO the rubber strap is way more comfortable. Blue bezel on rubber is my favorite version of all the squares to date.

Why are these so expensive? You can find the same module in the black plastic case for hundreds less. It does the same thing. It has Bluetooth, but stainless steel is not expensive to produce. It seems like a gimic to me, yet people are paying price for a basic digital watch with Bluetooth for crazy money.

It's good economic conditions in the US and generally around the world. Low (very low) unemployment in the US. This price has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO with the "value" of the watch.

It is what it is. It's not worth $450 imo and I would not buy it. But many do. So that is what is running the market.....those who do not care about price and those who collect more watches than they would ever really wear. It's a collectors market. It's become a hobby. Look at Hot Wheels cars. Same thing. Collectors pay $20 for premium HitbWheels for what Is virtually a $5 or less item.

This version has a STN display which is significantly more clear and legible than the resin bluetooth models. STN displays are standard on the full metal squares, which also have steel inner cases and screw backs. Are all these features worth a few hundred more? That's up to how much the buyer values those features. For my money, I'd prefer a GWB5600 resin bluetooth square and buy a couple of steel or titanium aftermarket external bezels.

The full black IP coated squares are great. You might want to secret knowledge of a high quality watch that masquerades as something cheap. Flying under the radar allows you to wear a nice watch in places that a flashy one would attract unwanted attention. I suspect that this blue version looks glistening and gorgeous in real life. This doesn't even look like plastic here.

I actually like that the backlight is darker as it draws less attention, and less glarey at night. The quality of the case is wonderful, and it feels like a 'real' watch.

@@RandomRobReviews does this wear better than the bracelet one? I had the silver full metal but i sold it after a few weeks because the lug to lug was just too long for my 16.5cm wrist. I mean the lug to lug of 49 would be ok but the bracelet endlinks really extend the lug to lug because then it is not really curving down. So i wonder if the rubber endlinks curve down better and makes it more wearable for smaller wrists. Really would love to get a metal g again if it wears better on a rubber than on the bracelet
