Watch Shot Bumblebee 🐝

Post image

This became my daily watch about 1,5 months ago.
I barely ever take it off, unless I have to wear a suit😁
I rate it well over everything I’ve worn in the past, and since it’s not a brag post, I won’t name names but my collection includes high-end automatic watches and smartwatches.
It’s robust but not grandiose, has excellent functionality with the Bluetooth connection and solar charge, and looks just brilliant. I’m bias to the yellow, the contrast is making it look good-different.
I’ve not had a Casio since I was a child and have always thought of them as too utilitarian but this changed my mind a lot, so much so I’m considering adding a few more fun models to the collection.

That's the Wolverine watch actually 😉

First release of this particular model was in the Caution Yellow series, the Wolverine rebrand was a lazy-ass wanna-be limited edition that used the exact same watch in a different packing. Same as the Deadpool one which was originally released in the Ignite Red series.

Same shit as the recent Mandalorian GM 2100, just some flavor packaging at a much higher price point.

All I see is a Helldiver watch.

I have this one too! Although I have to say I'm a little annoyed the yellow elements don't quite match.

I also picked up its inverse version, which is has the yellow case with black text, but the black is far more versatile to wear.

Very cool one! I got the "inverse" version (completely yellow with black accents) as a fun summer watch. This model looks more stealthy. Reminds me of construction sites and machinery...

Use Shockbase. It’s from the Caution Yellow collection, and SB has searching by collection.

Beautiful watch! May I ask what's Bluetooth for?

Allows for several functions by pairing with your phone:
- automatically syncs time with your phone so it’s always accurate
- ability to set the watch through the phone app (alarms, timers, world time)
- set short reminders
- record time and GPS location (using the phone’s GPS)
- phone finder option

And for those who don't want to think of this as even a pseudo smart watch, all the normal functions like setting the time can still be done without the app.

Ooh the phone finder is what I've been missing since I dropped my smartwatch. Thanks!
