totally agree, my personal preferences will be gshock is just for sports/casual wear most of the time, but i do have other seiko black steel for formal wear but recently was too addicted to gshock, my seiko has been in the drawer for more than a month d

Gshock X New Era

I can understand the feeling of addicted lol Just like i used to buy 2 sneakers/ mth fr limited edition to normal. Damm those were the days...

Now starting to addicted to shocksss...

I think i saw this at PK time 1u, go hav a look there.

Wow. This thread is picking up steam eh? Plenty of new collectors? The G-Shock scene these days is more of a resellers market than a collectors market. It was more exciting a few years back (check back V2 and V1 of this thread).

I've slowed down a bit on my collecting. Nothing from the recent releases catches my eyes (thank God). I still have a few from the older releases I want though. Let's see if I can get them before CNY.

come share bro, your collection

finally god of Gs appear, i did read thru all the previous comments before I started my gs collection, still looking forward to your collection model bro, do u owned any gd100 or this model DW5600EG-9V?

I avoid GD-100s like a plague. The module is prone to this problem where the digits on the screen disappears. I have one that is like that and I think I read one forummer here in this thread that had the same problem. In fact, there are always a few units up for sale on eBay that suffers from this problem and being sold for parts. It's quite a widespread problem and I've seen at least 5 among my friends that suffers the same problem.

I only have one GD-100 currently and it's the Irman Hilmi x G-Shock (GD-100-1AKL). The other ones I had were either given to people as presents or sold.

With regards to DW-5600s, I only have two, the DW-5600BB-1 and the DW-5600SG-7. I prefer the 5000 series when it comes to squares.

Hi anyone know where can I get the G shock bluetooth GBA 400 1A9 black gold with better price in KL??

I found many shop selling at 699-700MYR

Anyone one know?

i see, i guess i just avoid gd100 then, was attracted by the design and the 7 years battery life, as for 5600 series, the one i'm looking for is come with gold buckle, gold button, and a yellowish display (which quite ignore, look old)

btw, may i knw most of yr Gs is made from china or thailand? marco warranty is made from thailand? my 1st gshock is international warranty (the buckle there written casio china) while my 2nd gs is casio thailand (which the shop owner claimed that this unit is covered under marco corporation) no problem right?

the price should be ok d, dun expect to be cheaper, i was aiming this model from the beginning but then still i avoided buying this model, one of the reason is that i'm worrying bout the battery life... may I know y u eyeing on this model sis?

marco is marco.
doesnt matter thailand china japan or wherever its made as long as marco brings it in.

There you go. Your answer.

With regards to where the watch is made from, it depends a lot on the model. Some are predominantly made in China while the others are from Thailand. Most of the higher end ones are from Japan.

my 9300 mudman made in japan.
seems mine was made when thailand got flooded, so all production temporarily shifted back to japan.

Yeah. Production of a few models were moved to Japan when Thailand was flooded in 2010/2011 (can't remember which year exactly). The GA110 Hyper Colours series were one of them, which is why it was scalped like mad back then. When the flood receded, production moved back to Thailand, causing the GA110 Hyper Colours' prices to drop.

FYI, Frogmans are all made in Japan.

p/s: I did feel the same as you before buying a gshock, most of the gshock dimension is 52mm x 55mm, so I presumed that it would be huge but naaa....feel just so right wearing a gshock now
