G-shock watches are pieces of plastic junk, impossible to program, and worthless in a survival situation. A good self winding Seiko will serve you better. I gave my G-shock away after I could not figure out how to work it.
Wrong — G-Shock watches are the best watches made in the world. Gains only 1 sec a day but does so consistently — you can set them and two months later determine real (UTC) time to within 5 seconds. Essential since with celestial navigation you get 1 nautical mile in error for every 4 seconds error in watch time.
Mechanical watchs like the Seiko can be off by as much as 20 seconds per day if subjected to shocks — which means after a week your watch could be off by over a minute. You have no way of knowing.
You can toss a G-shock out a 3 story window onto a parking lot and it will be unaffected. Want to try that with your Seiko — or a $30,000 Rolex?
Re EMP, mechanical watches don’t work if they get magnetized — hence the ISO anti-magnetic requirement for dive watches. You can hold a strong magnet next to a G-shock –with a strength well above the ISO requirement –and it is unaffected.
Lithium batteries used in G-shocks have a shelf life of 10 years and several years of useable life after that if alarms and light are used sparingly. Whereas mechanical watches have to be lubricated and service every 5 years.
G-shock manuals are available on the internet — look at the back of the watch to determine the module number.
JWR’s Recommendations of the Week August 9, 2017
I followed your recommendation and listened to the sermon by Chuck Baldwin dated Feb. 2009 entitled “What Every Good Christian Should Know About The World Order.”
I am glad you recommended this video. It is excellent and worth listening to. Mr.Baldwin, gives a good introduction explanations concerning the NWO. He has his own style going about it. Who doesn’t. He is one of the best speakers I listened to, so far in a religious context. He has content, and good communication skills. He is quite accurate and knowledgeable. I appreciate that. I am familiar with this topic of NWO in a political context.
JWR, this time, you picked a very good speaker. I found other interesting videos by the same preacher on the site you recommended. So I kept listening. I would definitely recommend for your preppers on this blog to listen to this preacher.
