until G-shokcs appeared, I was used to sleek, fine, refined watches. even the sports ones were relatively small. When the g-shocks appeared, my first reaction was similar to yours
@SwInEIGh and I mean, what kind of shocks are these, so big and somehow ugly???? however, it is only a matter of perception and a natural reaction to new things. along the way, I understood that they are very practical, resistant, impressively durable and have a special place in the industry. So, maybe you, too, are not yet ready to adapt to innovations))) sorry if maybe I'm not right) but, you don't have to look at g-shocks strictly from the perspective of aesthetics)) these are tools, if you want) )
lately, brands have transformed ugly g-shocks into very good-looking accessories. so, I think your perception is not really relevant any more)
