sooo hard... no place for me to turn lol ..

"- Never set the date when the clock is at 9pm to 3am. That's when the date dial changes. Setting the date when it's at 9pm to 3am will force the dial to move unnaturally, causing the gears to wear/break if done too many times." i need to turn one round also ?
*
If it's not at 9pm and 3am then no need to turn one round. Just adjust the date will do. However, like I said earlier, these are just my own personal set of rules. It's not necessary that you follow them. However, based on my experience on mechanical watches (I do not know what kind of movement/mechanics does the GAC100 has), that's the best way to do it. All reputable watch sellers/shops will tell you the same thing.

Hi all, may be this question a bit silly.
I want to ask the watches from Project Hullabaloo is original? It seem ori as so many ppl are buying from them, so Im asking here to add more confident to them as I want to buy a G-Shock.
*
They are original. I bought PLENTY from them. The couple managing Project Hullabaloo are friends of a friend.

Hi, Do you know any reason behind that why they did not provide warranty for their watch since you claimed that they are original ?

I did go thru their FAQ and I found out this as below :

Terms and Conditions
Our range of time pieces are a favourite with watch enthusiasts. The watches are brand new and authentic, and our prices are competitive in the market. Kindly note that there is no warranty though.

Just curious to know that why ..  icon_question.gif
*
They get their watches from other suppliers. I guess if they were to provide warranty, they'll need to provide after sales services, something that is not easy when your business is on the internet. That might also be why their prices are cheaper than the others.

Anyway, I do not care about warranty. If you have the model I want, I'll buy it, even if there is no warranty. I don't even bother looking at my warranty cards.

Hotdamn G-Shocks are dirt cheap in TPE! picked up the GW-M5610SD-8 for a song. Plus foreign tourist gets another 5% VAT cashback at the airport. Too bad I was short on time so couldn't grab more than 1 piece hahaha
*
Hmm...I don't remember them being cheap. Normal prices, yes. Cheap, not really.

I got my KRINK DW6900 for NT4500 and my GDF-100-4 for NT3800 in Taipei. Those were the retail prices.

Could it be the GW-5610SD-8 you bought was priced at retail price and not the elevated, cut throat prices here in Malaysia, that's why it's "cheap"?

Guess u went to wrong places, son.  tongue.gif

LOL. I went to the touristy spots lah. rclxms.gif

At that time, the two watches I bought were at least RM50 more expensive than what I paid in Taipei, and their retail is priced around there, hence my previous comment.

Anyway, how much did you pay for the GW-5610SD-8? You keep saying cheap but didn't state the prices. smile.gif

Not getting it. Trying to stay away from collaboration ones. Too many of them to collect.

However, collection value wise, the MMJ set is right up there. MMJ is closing down this year and all their other stuff have been leaving the shelves like hot cakes. Their older MMJ G-Shocks are highly collectible as well.

Ok. Gotta stop talking about it now. If not, my hands will be itchy. sweat.gif

Got offered RM3.2k... a bit overprice... but since u said MMJ shutdown in 2013....
need to think twice, i just bought bunch of GShocks last week...

I was told last week that there are plenty of them in Yahoo Auction Japan going for 80,000 yen (about RM2,700). If you have friends in Japan, maybe can ask for their help.

As for me, I'm pretty set that I won't be buying it. Restricting my purchases as I have a huge commitment coming my way. smile.gif

My friend came back from Japan, he completed the project over there.. so far no friend going there... AFAIK foreigner cant register for yahoo auction or do not accept oversea credit card...
Tempting... so far not much people brought in locally... only see 1 or 2 resellers brought in.... wait for another week and see...
*
Yeah, foreigners can't register and they only accept Japan issued credit cards, which is why the forwarding services is such a thriving business.
Local resellers, I'm not sure. I usually buy pieces like this overseas because I want it fast and the local fellas aren't fast enough. smile.gif

Haha...Casio so far not yet consider released any special model for the GW-A1100 yet, as the 30 star GW-A1030A is their latest so far, but there some new 30 star model which has been out: GW-M5630D & DW-6930D.

gshockrocks.
*
Yeah. I'm aware of that. I'll just have to wait until they have a special edition GW-A1100. smile.gif

I know about the new 30 stars too. smile.gif I pre-ordered them a few weeks back. I didn't order the GW-M5630D & DW-6930D though. I went for the GSET-30-1JR. Hopefully it arrives soon. smile.gif

hahhaah OH SIFU ! any idea where can i find the frogman kermit / camo ?

the upcoming mastermind frogman looks quite neat !

and are you willing to part with any of your frogman ? haha..
*
Kermit and Camo? Can find but you'll have to really pay for it.

There are still no official pictures of the MMJ Frogman. Don't think I'll be getting that. I can't justify the price for a Frogman.

Nope. Not selling any of my frogs at the moment. smile.gif

QUOTE(Zombiemonkey @ Aug 15 2013, 10:15 AM)
thumbup.gif wanna sell one of the DW?
*
I doubt anyone will sell either of the ones here because both the DW-5030D-1JR and the DW-5030-1JR, as well as the G-Shock Man comes in a set. You'll have to buy them in sets. This set is called the GSET-30-1JR and it's one of G-Shock's 30th anniversary models.

If you really want a DW-5000, there is still the 30th Anniversary Resist Black, DW-5030C-1JR. smile.gif

Mostly online resellers in Japan. Found them through eBay. smile.gif

I buy my G-Shocks only from a few resellers. They might not be the cheapest around but they have what I want, when I want it.
