RM530 is quite okay actually, and the GA-110-1B being limited is a total BS. I used to own one before letting it go. it was almost everywhere and not really hyped-up like the Hyper Colors

BS is bullsh*t

GA-110-1B is one of the early regular "normal/basic" colours apart from the bright Hyper Colors that was initially released when the GA-110 first came out. it was released together with the more-familiar scheme GA-110-1A, somewhere in the first quarter of 2011.

it might be a regular release, but since it has been quite a while from the time it came out, so stocks might be very, very low or hardly available, unlike its highly-sought after Hyper Color counterparts. have you tried looking around in Sg.Wang?

there are a lot more shops selling G-Shocks in Sg.Wang. as far as I have been, there are at least 5-6 outlets there

GA-110 can be anywhere between RM450 and exceeding RM1k mark, depending on the type of release like regular, limited or collaboration models.

not much to worry about the box, coz some outlets mixed up all their boxes, and end up taking out a random one to give to the customer. the box is not important, it's the watch itself that you need to confirm its originality

RM410 is a really good price but documentation alone would not be sufficient to prove the watch to be legitimate. but most of the times cheaper price also means the watch is original, but the warranty is not from the official importer/distributor, Marco Corporation and the shop owner must have outsourced them from elsewhere. fake G-Shocks is very easy to differentiate since they are very poorly made, plus sometimes they're produced the ones with colours that's not available in Casio's catalog

if yours is a GA-110-1A then it should look exactly like this:




also, here's some examples of fake G-Shocks: *beware of eyesore*



and here's a good example of build quality, as shown with the original (top) and fake/replica (bottom) of the model GA-110A-4

I even thought the original BAPE ones are fake when the first time I laid my eyes on them

maybe you can try bringing it to a G-Factory outlet and ask them whether they can have the parts ordered

speaking of which, I was planning to restore my DW-6600 but always forgot to bring it to them

yeah. their choice of colour & design somewhat made the original ones looks fake. at first I thought somebody just made them up until I found out that there are original ones that looks exactly the same

previously GA-110 & GA-100 are some of the easiest ones to differentiate since the small indicator on fake ones are not functional, just being there for looks

haven't encountered the ones that you mentioned, but surely worried about it. next time I'll be sure to only get my future G's from legitimate sources

looks great imo. it have that ol' skool G blocky look. but sadly no Tough Solar feature

anywhere from RM200 and waaayy passed the 4 digit price mark

most of RM200-600 range are basic models, depending on what kind of additional functions it has

those that goes above that are professional models, limited edition and collaboration models

in general G-Shock straps & bezel are made of resin. there are some models that has leather/metal bracelet for its strap, but they are usually special editions/limited releases

wow. haven't seen those two for quite a while. how about ana/digi BGA-130 & BGA-133?

DW-6900NB-7 somewhere around RM500 if not mistaken, give or take RM50. that is, if you can still find it

wha-

some of those are older models

what a coincidence. just saw a review video about this GD-350 from mygshock

seems that the heat from your arm/wrist affected its temperature reading. same thing happened with my old Riseman

that was easily at least RM20k-plus value
