Casio G-Shock Rangeman GPR-B1000-1/1B with Solar GPS
The 2018 Casio G-Shock Rangeman GPR-B1000 adventure watch looks like a glorified steam engine trying to compete with sleek bullet trains.

Seiko Prospex Diver Scuba Giugiaro Design Edition
Already released as the Japanese Domestic Market (ah, that legendary 'JDM' abbreviation that's been rice-rocket freaks' and watch aficionados' darling for so many decades!) models, the 2017 limited-edition Seiko Prospex Diver Scuba Giugiaro Design (available at the time of writing as refs. SBEE001 & SBEE002) is an almost perfect re-issue of the model from the 1980s that had a great potential, but for some reason failed to become an icon of industrial design. I can only welcome the Japanese brand's decision to give the collection a second chance, even as only a limited-edition model.
Almost Smart: Breitling for Bentley Supersports B55 Connected
The 2017 Breitling for Bentley Supersports B55 Connected (ref. EB552022-BF47-285S) offers you the same list of amenities as their earlier "hybrid" smartwatches but in a more recognizable styling. Reassuringly overpriced and deliciously archaic, it will feature one of the lowest "value for money" ratios in their whole product range: something that we expect from a brand like Bentley.
Victorinox Swiss Army I.N.O.X. Carbon 241776 & 241777
Coming soon to a store near you, the new Victorinox Swiss Army I.N.O.X. Carbon (refs. 241776 & 241777) military-style collection offers you a decent Swiss made movement neatly packed into a feather-light carbon-fiber body. Despite being somewhat overpriced, the I.N.O.X. Carbon still gives you tons of style and comfort in return for that hard-earned cash.
Casio PRO TREK PRG-600 World-Timer with Tough Solar
With its new PRO TREK PRG-600 "outdoor" world-timer, Casio delivers a stylish, surprisingly tastefully designed product. Primarily targeting people who lead an active lifestyle and do need a time-measuring device that would do a good job during a hiking expedition, it will also look great with a pair of blue jeans and a t-shirt in a safe co-working environment. Although inevitably having limitations of its own, the PRG-600-1ER gives you a great combination of good build quality, reasonable price, and an almost overwhelming list of functions that would make an owner of a Swiss-made analog/digital timekeeper drool. The only thing that spoils the fun is the "cased in Thailand" inscription on its machine-brushed back.
Citizen Promaster Navihawk Satellite Wave GPS
The Promaster Navihawk Satellite Wave is an example of how you can turn a block of steel and a score of silicon parts into a wonderful gadget.
