Looks like Casio moving towards LED over EL? Really hate the LED on GA2100

Makes it look cheap like some China ciplak watch. Oh wait.. Casio is manufacturing in China now.

Going to sell the GA2100 since I barely worn it and grab the DW5600E.

Did Casio make bull bars for the 5600 or was it an aftermarket thing? I think it looks cool with it. Retro vibes.

I recently got a DW-5600RL as a souvenir from a family member who traveled overseas. The watch is legit, but upon closer inspection, it has the dreaded crooked module and the display is slightly tilted to the right.

Heard this issue is quite widespread and is fairly normal, but does anyone know any repair shops that can maybe nudge and realign the display? If I take it to Marco's service center, would they even entertain a request like that?

Try check with En Epal in FB. He's doing repair and servicing on G-shock watches.

Do I have to contact this person through FB? I have long since deactivated my account there and no longer use any socmed except for whatsapp.

Also, I was hoping anyone could share their experience sending a non-local watch to Marco for repair/servicing since they also seem to be able to keep the water resistance of the watch.

I'm one state away in N9 but I can try to drop by as I go to KL a few times a week.

If that store is still active I'll try contacting them. Thanks.

That's the thing: there is no way to confirm whether it's the module or the print that is out of line without opening up the watch first.

Of course, I will try to whatsapp both Marco and Kerek Store and see what they say first.

anyway...i think is just the module...minute only but noticable on some 5600...when u compare the lines on the day date box...
think is by design so to have buffer space for shock purposes...

Yes, the day-date box is what made me notice the misalignment. It bothers me because it is something I wear every day, and I frequently check my watch for the current time so as to avoid delays. Lazy to pull out my phone every time.

And I hope it is the module because that's what I've read in watchuseek and reddit as well. Unfortunately, I don't have the tools and skill to open the watch and close it back properly. Afraid that I will mess up the O-ring and internal fogging will happen in certain conditions.

If I end up going to Kerek Store, I will probably ask them to mod the recessed 'Adjust' button and replace it with a normal length button as well.
