IMO G-Shock without Digital display should be called something else.

So safe bet, just get from DAViS RM1359 then?

I think i see one CityTime86 on Lelong selling for RM1250 and reading the q&a section he says local malaysia warranty, not sure what does that means. Anyway, even if those grey unit, i heard those higher end g's got international warranty looking at those unboxing videos on youtube hmm.gif

in terms of online store. Davis price is on the high side, but he sells wide range of products so he needs the higher margin to cover his operations.

i believe Lelong or even Lazada will give better price than Davis. Buy from Davis only if you can't find elsewhere.

Physical shop, Casio stalls pretty much don't discount and they mark up can go as high as 50%. The same watch i bought outside for rm155, Casio is selling rm450...

So if you want Physical shop, go normal watch shop wait for sales, should give you 10-15% off.

Well for me if possible I just want the original local warranty so in case anything I can just go to Marco directly. So far I know DAViS have his stuff from Marco and I think CityTime? The rest all seems to be grey unit as I whatsapp'ed some of them last night all said not from Marco sad.gif

very low chance of G-Shock spoil.

and most of them have own warranty, just takes longer time as they have to send back to their supplier overseas for claims.

unless it's a critical item like your only watch i don't see it a big issue, unless it takes 3 months to get back.

Answer is...you won't be able to get it in the G-Shock stores...

Because they are either sold out or old models, if you wanna get it you can only get them from resellers (and possibly pay a premium price for certain sought after models as well) smile.gif

Rakuten Malaysia used to carry special edition G-Shocks and price were affordable. too bad no more Rakuten Malaysia. Direct EMS from Japan to Malaysia and then Pos Laju to you. no tax & duties. postage charge was either Free or Local Pos Laju only.

Hey guys, I was wondering how you guys store your gshocks. I have a transparent kinda case which can store 5 gshocks. But I bought it online, from a Malaysian in Japan. I have a couple more now and its difficult to find similar ones here.Any ideas?
*
transparent case direct in contact with the watch? they will have chemical reaction plastic to plastic better use proper stand.

even if you put in the original sponge came with box, the sponge may stain the watch band. so i now wrap tissue paper on the band. tissue cannot be seen from the box anyway.

Don't really know what kinda case are you talking about so a pic of the case youhave will definitely help laugh.gif
damn that's fast...never like the red out series anyways....not even the black out 35th version...
This is a GA-110GB, to be honest there's not much value for this model anymore...
If it is new then maybe RM 300-350 max...
If it is used then probably RM 200-250..
Good luck !
It depends on the shipper and the invoice on the box, but with my experience buying stuffs from Japan, it always depends on your luck with custom...

last time Rakuten Malaysia still here, buying from Japan is piece of cake. they will send from Japan to Rakuten Malaysia then Rakuten Malaysia will Pos Laju to you so from Japan to home less than 2 days. so you don't have to worry about anything.

price was cheap also for limited editions.

too bad Malaysians no taste buying online. they also had limited edition Seikos and other things from Japan.

Mind to share how you keep it? Just in the original box? I prefer to have something to display my gshocks..😁

the one with tin box i just open the cover lo. then the round mid sponge i just put it vertical and watch wrap on it like display stand.

i wrap tissue around the band so the sponge won't fuse with the resin.
