Hello You! 👋 I hope you’re all good & kicking off 2024 in style! 😎
LOTS IS HAPPENING in the watch world already, as is the case at Time Drops!
So, without further ado…. Let’s. Jump. Right. In!👇
TOP 10 G-SHOCKS OF THE YEAR! 🗞️
It’s THAT TIME again! 🤯
As we kick off a new year, it’s time to reflect on the last! Check out my TOP 10 G-Shock Releases of 2023 here!👇
I know I said this would be released before last year was out & I had every intention of making that happen. The reason it didn’t is mainly because it took me so long to decide which releases made the cut! 😂 So, I apologise but I hope you like it all the same! 😅
Let me know what you think & which one would take the crown in your top 10! 👑
ANOTHER BLANCPAIN x SWATCH?! 🗞️
It appears the five oceans on planet Earth weren’t enough! 🌊 As Blancpain and Swatch now head to the moon for inspiration & introduce the Scuba Fifty Fathoms Ocean of Storms, the sixth model in the series! 🌙

Swatch

Swatch
This lunar-inspired timepiece pays homage to the Moon's Oceanus Procellarum and features a black bioceramic case, bezel, and crown 🖤.
Maintaining the series' DNA, it boasts a black sunburst dial with orange accents, a 42.3mm diameter, and SISTEM51 automatic movement ⚙️.

Swatch
I was in London on January 11th & was somewhat tempted to head down to one of the Swatch stores, mostly out of “queue curiosity” 😅 … Que-riosity? Nevermind.
Needless to say, I decided against it in the end but at £350/ $400, initial stock sold out straight away anyway! Many of which presumably making their way straight to eBay! 💸
However, just like the others in this series, these are not limited! So you should get the opportunity to pick one up at retail price if you’re patient enough to let the initial wave settle down a bit! 😏

Speaking of the others, I know I’ve teased the Arctic Ocean previously ^, Other videos have taken priority but it’s coming live to the channel VERY SOON!💪
In fact, I’d love to get your opinion on a title for it!
Which Title Works Best For The Blancpain x Swatch Video?

CONGRATULATIONS to Kieran who this week received his brand new watch & is now the proud owner of the Japan Exclusive G-Shock x ICERC Casioak! 🐳😁

A few words from our winner!👇
“Thank you ever so much. I am really chuffed. I fell in love with G-Shock watches when I visited Japan in 2009. I bought myself a watch then and always hoped to get a collection. I came across your channel last year when I was looking into what to get. Your videos are excellent, keep up the good work.”
CONGRATULATIONS again Kieran! 🏆
