Hi Guys,
Just would like to seek your opinion on these 2:
I like the Protrek, just wondering what is the difference between GShock.

G-Shock Mudmaster

Protrek
http://www.casio-intl.com/asia/en/wat/watc...il/PRG-600YB-3/

I like the Protrek for the Cloth band. That's the reason I am looking at it.

prg600 not worth it.
cloth band can always be ordered separately, but if its like the prw3000 one then its bad.

essentially real life usage, no difference with protrek or gshock... both are durable enough for the likes of special forces etc to use them.
*
You mean PRW3000 punya similar cloth band??

Lastly, where would be the best source for cheaper Protrek? I saw the price in Elegant-Store is cheaper than G-Factory. I travel to HK frequent, so this can be considered as well.

i assume its similar.
i see its holes aren't reinforced also, so probably won't last so long.
anyway prg600 quite overpriced for what it is, and analog ABC watches are just wrong...never as user friendly as digital ABC.
*
I understand now what do you mean by Analog ABC.... biggrin.gif

But I like the design and overall appearance, and it is cheaper among PRW-6000 and also the Mud-Master. Guess this will be my next goto Watch.

is it really cheaper by much compared to prw6000?
i had a prw6000 when it first came out couple yrs ago, got marco set for somewhere around rm1.1k then.
i think prg600 is around the same price now? that kinda puts it in perspective on how not worth it it is to me tongue.gif
anyway i flipped my prw6000 after awhile and replaced it with a prw3000 titanium which I still have.
the prw3500 i got just for the sake of it, but now wanting to flip it to maybe get the new upcoming garmin fenix 5s.

Ok. I am very specific in these comparisons. Because I am looking for a GREEN analog watch.

So I am comparing between PRG600 and PRW6000 available in G-Factory and Lazada. PRW6000 is the more expensive one.

G-Fac is about RM500+-

Lazada is about RM600+-

PRG600 in Lazada is only RM1249+-.

I am still very much staying away from Smart Watch, due to the battery charging requirement.

wait? what is rm500+ in g-fac? cannot possibly be prg600.
did u miss out a 1...so rm1500+?

cheaper green analog pieces there are always the ga100, new ga500, gg1000...
*
I mean the difference in price is around RM500+- between PRG600 and PRW6000 for G-Fac and also Lazada (RM600+-)

btw, prg600 green retail in g-factory is rm1619.
current xmas promo 15% off so rm1376.
i wouldn't mind paying rm130+ extra over lazada just to have proper local / international warranty.

Got the item bud. Thanks a lot!

Where else can I goto? RM is weak hence it is LPPL after you convert. And with local warranty, why not?

I will let you know how long the strap will last. tongue.gif

I have no idea what is wrong with my watch...

If I use timer, then everything is fine.
But if I switch it to Stop-watch, then the watch will prompt CHG after an hour of usage.

Is this battery problem?

i believe CHG means charge...
tho i dunno why would a stop watch take anymore battery power than a timer.
obviously best is to go back to marco service center and ask them.
*
Thanks for the reply.

CHG is charge, but it drains the battery so fast in Stop Watch Mode...

After it appears, I will leave it under the sun for 2 days... until I need to use the Stop Watch mode again.

I dived with this watch before, so my sister was saying maybe something spoiled already inside.

i assume its fully charged? then guess its time to change the batt.
how long has it been since u had it anyway?
*
Maybe 6~7 years already... It was my everyday watch until I get myself the Pro-Trek this year.

I wanted to changed the Batt, the shop guy told me very expensive... Suggest I should try and charge it first. That's what I did, and somehow still cannot.

I use Timer for 40 minutes. Then tried stop watch for 40 minutes (Charge in between).... still die. Scare the hell out of me when the whole screen went blank.

I have traded in my watch and I have the vouchers now. I do not have plans to use the vouchers, considering the watch I want is on promotion hence cannot use the voucher.

If anyone interested with the vouchers, please come and get it from me during office hour. It is FREE. I won't post it pasal malas.

My office is in Bandar Puteri, Puchong.
