What watch do you wear?

I bought 2 new watches in 2022 and finally got photos of them. (One photo I'll post in the dive watch thread.)

This is a strong "homage" of the Omega Speedmaster Moon Watch. I bought it on sale from Amazon on black friday. It seems to be very well made for the price, I have no complaints.

I think this is the same watch, but so hard to tell for sure with Casio having so many little minor variants. I bought a kit from China on AliExpress and modded it with a black metal case and band. Love the solar power. Love the NIST synchonization. Unbelievable value.

Nice choice on the band, that looks much better! I definitely want to get a Moonswatch, but I'm not sure which I want. That one looks great though.
Thanks. I actually bought several bands at Cheapest NATO Straps and when I saw them in hand liked this one best.

As far as the models, I guess it's all personal taste. I've seen a few in hand, and my faves are Mars, Jupiter, and Earth. If you want to replicate the original, Moon and Mercury are best.
 
What kind of sorcery is this?
Good sorcery! I've always admired the looks of the Audemar$ Piguet Royal Oak, but did not want to pay $20K or more.

Meanwhile, there are a zillion variations and mod kits for the Casio G-Shock 2100 series analog/digital models. Some folks noted the octogonal shape and modded them after the fashion of the Royal Oak and nicknamed them "Casi-Oaks." I bought this one pre-modded.

Hardly anyone ever comments on my multi-thousand dollar Grand Seiko (aka The Ninja Rolex) but folks comment on this inexpensive watch all the time. Go figure!
