It would be easy to match this watch with my weekend wardrobe which consists of quite a few red shirts, such as these…

adidas Originals 3-Stripes Trefoil Scarlet Tee

Spain adidas 09/10 Home Kit

Liverpool FC 90-91 adidas Originals Home Kit

and either of these kicks.

Nike Air Force 1 Neutral Grey-Varsity Red

Nike Air Force 1 Low Premium '07 White/Varsity Red-Obsidian-Pearl White

Here it is, with my DW9052 and GLX5600A-2.

The official description via Casio’s G-Shock site.
G-Shock, the watch that has been supporting surfers and action sports enthusiasts worldwide, brings you the new G-Lide line-up. With its slim & compact design, the new G-Lide hugs your wrist without getting in the way. With Tide & Moon Graph functionality and 200M Water resistance, you won’t want to go without one on your next surfing excursion. Teal Resin Band and a Digital Dial Code.

The only surfing I do is of the online variety, so I’m hoping that this watch will look good on my wrist while I’m hammering away on the keyboard.

While my National Service experience has been a mixed bag of surprises, I was looking forward to receiving the latest SAF uniform in 1:1 scale, having collected them in 1:6 scale to some extent.

It features:

Arms badge on the right collar.

Formation badge on the right arm.

Name on top of the right pocket.

and finally, the country I serve on the top of the left pocket.

It feels rough and probably needs to be worn a bit more before it’s a comfortable fit, but looking quite good overall.
