the stars are probably based on generals.
so 4-stars like 5500 / 5600 etc.
3-stars for 6900 etc.
but i think its sacrilege that ga-110 gets a star...then again i guess that says enough that ga-110 is one of gshocks best modern sellers.

cos need import from further away? or maybe get more tax? no idea.
but the popular timex weekender can find usd14.99 in factory outlets here.
only timex i got is a expedition shock vibration alarm... usd39 only.
got pros n cons with gshock.
cons of timex probably buttons too easy to press, can accidentally activate if wear thick clothing.

pros...hmm...pro no1... way way way better negative lcd.
pro no2... can hide functions u dont want to see... like alarm 2 or chrono or timer...
pro no3...mineral crystal...

woodbury commons...new york / new jersey.

timex doesn't have better functions, just more user friendly.

also one more thing it has thats quite useful if travel often.
can have 3 diff times saved, and change each to main time very easily.

i hide the hydration timer

forgot to mention another thing i like about the timex... u can choose date format as either DDMM or MMDD...
unlike gshock forced down the throat with MMDD ala american style.
kinda ironic American brand lets u choose date format...
but one thing timex i wish can do is let u choose indiglo duration instead of always 2-seconds.

ya let us know if u got any success using toothpaste, cos on gshocks i read differing results...some work some dont.
then again, unless its a collectible... i wouldn't worry about scratches... afterall a gshock is made to be abused.

ya my rangeman bezel got dings in it... same with my g-steel metal bezel...gives it character

authentic but grey market, so if u don't care for local warranty... go ahead.

xl is big.
i believe u can easily find review online showing size difference.

xl is definitely bigger than rangeman...and i believe rangeman is bigger than gd350.

add in a pic comparing...
u can see by measurement almost same size...but xl looks bigger simply cos it has a bigger crystal.

old model of cos hard.
if pacparts or tiktox also don't have, ur only option is to go ebay find donor piece.

that one marco set?
grey market set can easily get below rm260.
now currency dropping again, should go back to rm230 or below when new stocks come.

hi.


i'll probably wait for bezel replacement parts to be available, then put that black bezel on mine.

swim with it? maybe its gonna slide everywhere on ur wrist...
maybe should buy the rubber strap for it

i dont see any reason why it wont.
and wouldnt it make more sense / cost effective to buy the model on steel band, then only buy resin band later?
unless the colorway of the resin band model is what u prefer.

yea all can be removed.
my wrist is also small, 6.5" only...still depends on how it looks overall on u.
ie. workout get bigger forearms and arms

not all ana digi is like that...only for the recent ones - except for the G-steel.
but yea its hard to see cos only lights up the face and u have to look hard for the hands.

older ana digi can light up the LCD, and theres only one that is still in production...the G-300.


as for the G-steel...

cos those ones fall under diff category - master of G
normal ana-digi as per casio definition only these.

btw, the mudmaster is also abit bad at the lighting...cos the 6 marker blocks quite abit of the light.
thats what really irritated me when i was looking at it thinking to buy or not...in the end was a not.

also the mudmasters i saw, all are bad at second hand hitting the markers.
i know the hands can be reset, but reading on wus... not many had any luck getting it aligned.
i think i may instead target the new quad sensor gulfmaster gwn-q1000... but i think the price is going to be almost rm4k...so zzz.

confirm nowhere near rm2k.
usd retail is expected to be usd899 or so.
