Pretty cool! It's looking so good because it wasn't worn. Unhappily, jelly gets pretty ugly if you use it too much over the years.

Being honest, I would prefer if it was all digital (= more practical). However, I think it looks a LOT like the A1000, one of the two best looking Aviators so far.

But that's the beauty: the signal is being broadcasted every second! So no need to pull it out on a predetermined time like with Wavceptors. Probably it will have a scheduled "window" to receive the signal, but you can synch it manually whenever you want.

Since Seiko's GPS was so expensive, I'm afraid to even ask how much this will cost .

Like any GPS unit. It just doesn't display coordinates, only uses the satellite's atomic clock to set the time and then beams the signal down to here so that the watch receives it and adjusts itself. No more need to be in reach of a radio tower, or in other words, you'll have atomically correct...

ABTW Atomic and GPS!!!!!!!!

They were released in the same year, and (basically) still are in production today, but through the years Casio has developed the modules, so you will see the same watch receiving a different module after some years.

Nice ones! But is the lettering on the bezel more pink then red? Or is it my monitor?

One last tidbit on the pressure testing done by "professional shops": if they assembled the watch wrong, the pressure testing will flood the watch.

Benvenuto, Alberto!

But back on topic: That's the so called "resin rot", that will affect 99.5% of older models. There's no way to avoid it and the only remedy is to get a new set of resin. However, I wouldn't use soap, neutral or not, very often on an old model. Get it clean once and baby it afterwards (use it...

"Kind" of ridiculous ? They should put a sign that says "Bring your watch and we'll rip you off". A watch repairman who can't guarantee that a modern G Shock he worked on is waterproof after he's done with it should not charge for any kind of service. You don't need to pressure test the watch if...

A 6900 has 50 mm in diameter and 18.8 mm in height, while a X6900 has, respectively, 53.7 mm and 20.8 mm.

So it's an ABC watch ? I was under the impression it only has alti-baro capabilities.

We have a winner!!!!

Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with an ana-digi watch - I don't like the looks of them, that's all. However, that's only true if you're talking about a "normal" time measuring watch, like a chrono. When you get into the ABC realm, analog measuring is just plain silly, if of course...

I usually use this: http://world.g-shock.com/asia-mea/en/products/new/ However, the forums are usually your best bet to see stuff before it's released.

Somebody really wants to get in to the sales forum .

Then why mix the analog elements there?
