Problem is it is a JDM unit, unless u get the European unit, most of the shops do not carry it.

Get it, that thing grows on you.

yea I saw this. I thought maybe get this rather than the classic color... but boss sniper on the roof poison me get classic sweat.gif

i like the pic u send. the red skin underneath the watch band.

ekcelli i also attracted towards the white model which I saw for many years which is similar type. hmmm...


QUOTE(fuzzy @ Sep 15 2016, 08:19 PM)
JDM = Japan domestic market, which are watches that is only properly available in Japan and not for export. You might get people buying there and bringing it in but it won't be from official distributor.

Not much difference between the 1er or 1jf, one is meant for Japan market and the other the European market. Finding it locally is probably the bigger challenge. I got mine from Pertama Complex by pure chance, after missing out on it while in Japan.
*
1er is europe model? 1jf is japanese model?

ayam gonna buy from japanese seller in rakuten or seiya maybe. they ok right?

i wouldn't so far to call a gwm5610 a classic, far from it seeing as its a new-ish model.
a classic is the 5600 / 5500 / 5000 or any of its reissues.

the very first gshock DW-5000C year 1983 watch

uhh yes, im well aware.
just cos it looks similar doesn't make it a classic.
the 5000 has a solid screw caseback and stainless steel case with the resin bezel on top...ie a completely different model in a different league of built quality.
*
newbie here on gshock. solid screw caseback is where? u mean the back of the watch it is screwed with stainless steel case behind?

the model u posted gw5000hr not yet selling?

cuz i look around, like not selling yet. it is really nice. may consider this cuz i saw one tat looks similar to urs with the red text on the top n bottom

of  cos a gwm5610 is cheap...
but if u really want a 5000...better just look for a used dw5030... thats the most recent faithful reissue of a 5000.
i know someone here recently got the gset 30th set for rm1.1k or so... brand new here is rm1.7k.
http://www.g-central.com/gset-30-1-g-shock-gift-box-set/

need to do more readup on these babies b4 i decide what i want

for now the gwm5610 has the solar power, atomic time, world time for travelling, auto-EL for night time legibility.

the watch u mention earlier is one sexy beast gw5000hr.

already on the menu to order?

alright will look to the forum u mention

nope, i dont like the 5xxx series, too small for my tastes.
i had a couple of 5600 before... got rid of them.
i still like my mudman, rangeman and g-steel.

Kuli life so hv to slowly save for it

Btw, the snap caseback doesnt come with the PAM000? I look at pic, mcm same back.
