    I still think that your instincts were not wrong in your frogman choice. The black and blue is still a great looker and maybe even better and more versatile than the yellow, even if the yellow is more collectible. I do agree that having both is the big move.

    • @masterwatch
      @masterwatch  Місяць тому +1

      If I had the yellow I could use the titanium bracelet with the blue frog as the MR-G logo is in gold that would match the buckle button on the yellow bracelet that is also gold... this detail is important... and costly I know...

    I’ve heard a few mention that the Captain America casio’s are “summer” watches but I disagree. I think those colours can be worn all year round and with just about anything.

    Has the captain America got sapphire or is it still mineral.

    • @masterwatch
      @masterwatch  Місяць тому

      it does look sapphire but I think they would have mentioned so I think it is mineral crystal. I don't really mind as I understand that Casio reserves sapphire for their very high end pieces that usually have titanium cases. I expect that in the future we might see steel with a sapphire crystal.

    ''I feel like a new person'' after the business in the toilet 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀 Buddy you're a king. I've been in the similar situation a lot of times, but that has never stopped me to pull over by the road, highway, whatever, and do what I need to do. Rushing to the toilet, contemplating about life and thinking about the junk food, I absolutely love your style I must say. That Frog isn't my cup of tea I would say, I'm a bit purist, digital Frog would be the only one for me, that's for me the only Frog that should exist, but a time goes forward , not backward, I understand that. A titanium King would be a great idea, but don't forget, it should be made of big slice of a titanium, which is not cheap, a price (with the MRG badge) would be very unpleasant, extremely far from wallet-friendly thing....I'm perfectly satisfied with my JDM resin one. By the way, even though I love squares (I have them, a lot more than couple), a square is not Casio's most iconic thing, it's close, but that's the calculator watch (which I don't like too much). By my experience, a traffic and the drivers in and around the Paris is absolute chaos, a drivers are crazy. Miss one turning in Paris and you have to drive a couple of miles to get back, if you don't miss again in the meantime. Speaking about french petrol stations, it's not a surprise they are expensive, but it's a real surprise those guys wanted to speak with you in english, which didn't been the case in the past, at least not with me.
    Usually I'm impressed with the quality only if that Casio is made in Japan (not without the reason).....most of my squares are made in Japan, more than 15 years old, without any sign of the age, mint. A design of today's Casiotron is the same in general, except a watch is double bigger and completely different than the OG.
    If I see that watch at your wrist, definitely I'll not say ''Oh my God Sir, are you wearing Captain America?''....that's not going to happen, to me personally, that's a metal square, something that G shock is definitely not designed to be....by the way, a first G shock was such a fail that Casio was thinking about the shutting the whole line down, luckily they decided to give it one more chance, that was basically a same watch with a different colourway (DW5200C). That's my opinion....it's not about the money, I got money to buy the MRG right now, it's not about that, it's about belief. I know why you like those digital Casios.....because it launches you straight back to the childhood, to some happy no-worries time....I know that because it's the same situation with me.
    Between us, why you didn't thought about a building a watch without a Multiband, and without a Bluetooth at all? it just have to be accurate, that's it....and at the same time, it will be cheaper. Bulova don't have any Multiband, or a Bluetooth and it's very accurate, even a cheapest Casio is more accurate without those buggers than any Rolex....you can't jump at the 14th step straight away, you have to start from the 1st....relatively cheap quartz ETA F06 is very close to Casio with the accuracy, if not better.
    Don't forget, speaking about the business plans, it was always been hard to beat the king....Casio is the king.
    A journey with a bunch of squares, great video bud, I like it.

    • @masterwatch
      @masterwatch  Місяць тому +1

      Yes you are right about the cost and pain of introducing MB6 and Bluetooth into the build tech spec and I am still thinking. If no BT or MB6 I would definitely try to keep at least solar but then I think the Bluetooth would enable operation by an app on a smartphone but again there is a big cost implication... I am thinking and having the conversations.. You are correct about the OG square and I agree.. I do like the digital Frog 🐸 and I believe Casio have already designed a new version.. I can't wait!! A titanium MRG-56 would just be cool (just my opinion) and you are correct it would not be wallet friendly and this is a concern.. BUT.. an MR-G King would just be so cool.. Thank you again.. you have me thinking about MB6 and Bluetooth and the R&D cost might be the deciding factor.

      @@masterwatch Ok, you got a design, which is good, what about the software? what about the production, a quality control? what about the spare parts, a warranty? and the most painful thing, what about the advertising? Where to sell that thing, online? Will it be made in UK, made in Japan? That's affecting a price tag, a lot .. that's really a huge mountain to climb, and I think a cost is astronomical, I really wish you good luck, from the bottom of my heart. In my opinion, (don't get me serious, this is just my though) some type of a modified ETA would be great, modified to be a solar analog watch... maintenance is low, the accuracy is high... no Bluetooth, no MB... less points of fail is always better

      @@termit520 I am chatting with a micro electronics company in the UK and these initial conversations will scope the costs. The costs are serious much more than you think to plan in long term warranty commitments and servicing, the scope and implied costs is always wider than you think. The watch would be a new thing in the market and the design and technical spec is new, I don't think anyone else offers what I hope to.. But is it feasible I do not know yet. I would need to sell a few, the projections would have to accurate.. Anyway the journey is good and very interesting.. Actually think 1970s Seiko and Casio combined with 2024 tech. I've been looking at e-paper and a number of display options, it gets technical.

      For me, the MRG analog Frog is the most comfortable one by far. I too have the digital OG but not nearly as comfortable on wrist for daily wear. I have a 7” wrist and find it a bit odd for me.
