Introducing: The Casio G-Shock MR-G Limited Edition 'Hammer Tone' (Are You Ready For A $6,20

Unloved by many who think of themselves as real watch lovers, the G-Shock is very much loved by those who need a watch that will put up with the very roughest use the very roughest and most dangerous jobs can dish out. G-Shocks are worn by more than a few hipsters and would-be hipsters these days, but they're also worn by the thousands by police officers, firefighters, special forces operators, regular Army guys and gals ¨C you name it. A $150 Tough Solar G-Shock will last basically indefinitely and will as for absolutely nothing in return for flawless performance other than that you don't expose it to a nuclear explosion. So what the heck is Casio doing in offering a $6,200 G-Shock

I need help with a
Lathin watch. I know I posted something similar before, but.......It is swiss made but I can't find any info on the web about it. I don't know enough about it to trust to a watchsmith yet. But I want to get it restored. I'm afraid to open it. I would like to learn more about it so I don't appear to be a mook when I finally take it in. I might be able to post a better shot later.
