Debate: the F91W is the perfect beater watch

I believe the Casio F91W (on a NATO, the stock resin band is garbage.) is the perfect beater watch. And I say this to you all who might disagree with your gshocks, because the F91W costs less than a burger and soda at a baseball game. It’s so easy to r…
