My stepfather had given me his Casio G-SHOCK watch. The rubber around it, which actually was responsible for protecting the watch from shocks, was gone. It looked ugly that way, but I enjoyed playing with it so much that he gave it to me.
I loved that it had four different buttons and many functions. I loved its beep. My friends at school and I would synchronize our watches so that every hour all watches in class would go BEEP BEEP at the same time.
I wore it all the time. It was waterproof, after all. On the rare occasion that I removed it, a tan line was there.
