Pure Skeleton #4
I started putting together this jumble of colors in December when I inked the movement. It's been on the back burner untill a couple nights ago when while sorting through parts for the one hander watch I'm imagining, I came across this set of hands at the bottom of the box... As soon as I saw
them, I realized it was time to shift the one hander onto the back burner and start cooking this skeleton on high again.

@Bahnstormer_vRS , indeed there is a pearl blue whisper of a second hand across from the crown. The movement was designed to fit inside an open face pocket watch with the crown at 12 o'clock and subdial at 6.

This is my latest purchase.
I am not really into G-Shock watches but when I saw this discontinued Baby G-Shock, it spoke to me so I made an offer on eBay for it.
I love the size of it. Casio lists it as 40mm. The listing showed it as 36mm and it does feel like a 36mm watch to me, which I love. I ordered a digital caliper which is due to me tomorrow to see for myself.
The eBay offer for $100 USD and it was accepted.

The printed dial, the digital subdials (which I can barely read with my old eyes :)), not having baby G-Shock written on the dial, and the backlight all work well for me.

While some have classified it as a woman's watch, the description on the Casio website seems to indicate it is masculine.
Here is Casio's description:
A cool model with a metal face and stud design accents. Cut patterns that look like studs are used on the indices and the entire face at the 3, 9, and 12 o'clock positions. The metallic material shines brilliantly depending on the angle, creating a luxurious design. Additionally, the resin band has a herringbone pattern for a classic, masculine look. A handsome model that adds an edgy stud design to a high-quality, metal/resin combination band.
Enough writing, here is photo of my new Casio MSGC100-2A on my 6.75" wrist.
