G-Shock Pawn

[ApexJimi]

Just to add a little balance here, I purchased two G's from Watches100 (who are also TheWatchFactory) last month, and the service was impeccable, as were the watches themselves.

Got this a little over a week ago and love it.



Japan only GW-5000 model.

Not worn a watch in a while and told wifey i could do with something that was mostly weekends (when i'm not near a PC/Iphone/etc) but could also pass for work on occasion too.....rugged but smartish. I suggested a Gshock and she said "thats plastic kids crap!....let me see what they do"

Anyway, got home the other day and she'd got me this.....TBH its a little "rugged" to go with a suit by its not too bad. And the kids think it looks like something the people from Call of Duty would wear on their days off





Having owned various more expensive stuff in the past (omegas/breit. etc) its nice to have something that I dont need to panic about wearing when i do some DIY/Gardening/Gym

Me too, can't decide between that (on a resin strap) or the 2500 :



Don't think I like the lack of a second hand, and some folk complain the LCD is obscured most of the time. Hmmm

[tattymarbots]

what about the pro-trek versions are they just overpriced or a different range altogether

where can i get this from, how much?

[sneijder]

Model is a GW 2500

For example :

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Casio-Shock-Radio-Controll...

I'd be quick as they've stopped / about to stop making them.

This is the new GW 3000



A long way off being available I think.

The GA 100 will be cheaper when it lands, it's a bit love it or hate it.



I've sold everything bar my Seiko Monster and G 7800, and I'm going to collect the 'Men In Rusty Black' series.

I really want this now in my life..... has to be the best looking G-Shock watch i've seen. I wonder how much?

Indeed... I might have to have 4 G-shocks, rather than 3... Still waiting for my other G-shock from Casio, however... Still on back order

Me likey.
Can't find that one but a tough mvt here: click.

I thought of this when I read that bit:

[LordGrover]

Aha!
Click.

My first 'Men In Rusty Black' landed this morning.

This watch buying/selling malarkey is getting daft now, I know everyone in the post office near me now. I'm going to get a Christmas card from the Hong Kong post office next year at this rate.

The watch is ace, black buttons and buckle too. The 5600 is a lot smaller on the wrist than I imagined.

Shadow - what the hell are you smoking man?!

How did a watch make you think of a laxative?

[Nick_F]

Move along.
