Time to retired my 16yrs old Casio frogman. bye.gif Still running good. Just the illuminator can't light good enough to see the time at night. Very tough watch.

Question,

Does the illumination on your "12 & "6 o clock points have a slight discoloration/fade when the light is on?

Mine had since day 1 i left the store and im just curious if i have a lemon on my hands, the warranty is way past overdue and i never really got the chance to find out if it was in fact a defect.

Thanks, from your pic the discoloration is almost same mine has discolored quite a lot due to the age.

Enjoy your watch dont forget to turn on the auto-el to turn some heads when in the dark smile.gif

How Long it will become fade away?

The auto illuminate is quite annoying. It keep turning on when flip your hand. I m using Protrek currently which have a same function.

I thought titanium case was only for the GWF-1000 series?

Not sure. Thought all the frogman is titanium.

I have an old frogman with a titanium case DW-8200. Pretty light.
