As the title states, what non-metallic (plastic, ceramic, carbon fiber, wood, etc) watches are worth buying or knowing about? Probably going to be lots of adventuring stuff - so fake bonus points for non-sporting watches - but if a Pro-Trek, G-Shock, or Suunto is what you like and think every person should know about, post it up.
I’ll get things started with a classic, just to get it out of the way…

There are resin mod cases for the budget seiko movements. More info on r/seikomods
Casio WVA-M630B-1AJF. Resin case, but same internal electronics as the Casio Lineage. Solar powered, atomic radio controlled ani-digi, with digital calendar, 5 alarms, stopwatch/timer, 2nd time zone and a backlight.
I have the blue dial, metal bracelet version of that, and it was my favorite beater watch until it died and wouldn’t restart with a new battery.
It’s still in my dead-Casio collection, along with my CMD-10 and CMD-30 TV “Remote Commanders” from high school, and my DBC-150 which likely still has my high-school sweetheart (now my wife) phone number in it. LOL, I was such a prankster with those tv-remote watches.
What’s up with the digital display on that F91W!? Looks cool
Right now, it appears to be a one off prototype some dudes are making to basically be a smartwatch in the body of an F91W. I just googled F91 Kepler like it says at the bottom of the picture.
