Ahh a fellow 4Runner brother. What year did you pick up? Not a thread Jack.

Had her off road 3X now, been awesome. Traded in my 2010 4Runner for this one.
For me no, did not care for Sunnto Core. Easy enough to flip, think I lost $25 all said and done. It's not very "substantial" construction wise, very under whelming IMO. I would try one on locally before buying online. I have and have had a lot of watches over the years. This one sticks out as one of the most/more disappointing to me. Granted, besides my G-Shocks and a Breitling Super Quartz, I am strictly an automatic guy.
Clint, can you recommend one? I'm in the market. Would like one that holds at least two pieces, though - like cigars - I figure buying something bigger the first time around would be a wiser choice.

I run this 6-bay Wolf with a fold down glass front, but it's either knockoff or gray market 'cause I paid around $400 not $1200. Served me well for years though, and classy as fuck IMO. They make singles, duals, quads, and octals as well. Check out jomadeals.com (I think, or just search for Joma) if you're not in a rush, wait for them to show up as a deal of the day there. But, that could be 2 weeks or six months. Never know.
I had 6-8 cheap single units before this, but the motors got loud and I didn't like having them in my room.
If I ever see any other deals I'll post up...

14 watches here and another 10 that are hidden from the wife....if I were an octopus I could probably sell the whole idea of why I have that many but I'll keep the others hidden for now and bring them out slowly.
I have the 41mm Runwell Chrono Contrast 5030. Nice looking watch, not too big, easy to wear. Normally prefer mechnical movements, but the price was right (eBay, right after xMas) to justify a Quartz buy. Plus, it was built in the D (like to tells folks the '8' stands for Eight Mile Rd.)

Another Detroit-based watchmaker is the Detroit Watch Co. They have mechnical movements. Great looking pieces, and love the Detroit reference (1701). I might need to reallocate some funds from the cigar budget.

Interested to see DWC 313 Series and 39mm releases this year (44mm is too big IMO).
I have a general understanding of watchmaking but not enough about specific calibration. What's the diff between the 9032 vs 9015?
Gotcha. I was looking at the Series line (9132) not the Classic (810A). Thanks!
