New G's arrival just in time for the weekend - LRG, Rescue Oh My!

Received a large care package from Japan and a great friend today, 3 new G's and a replacement for one I exchanged:

First two I've been searching for awhile and in NOS condition. Even though these aren't the exclusive US versions in trunk, I was stoked to be able to pick them both of them up for under and at original retail.

DW-6900LR-9AJR X DW-6900LRG-2AJR







Been always meaning to pick this Rescue up for awhile but never got around to it. Thanks to my bud Adman7 for looking out for me as always

GW-7900MS-3JF M-Spec

The military green canvas strap with bright rescue orange contrast and the dark green resin with orange accents is stunning. Goes great with the new Army Green GWX-56KG





When I traded my GWF-1000BS-1JF to my great bud Aurelio, I went through separation anxiety and had to get a replacement. Welcome back sexy:



Final random pick, DW-8200BK-1JF spare resin bezel and strap set:



Ugh, must stop!!! 3 more BNIB G's incoming:

GW-6900F-7JF for 8000Y!!
GW-206K-7JR NOS, grail Frog collected!
and another special ICERC Froggie - stay tuned for more photos!

Cheers and HAGWE!

G'day Gavin,

I picked up one a couple of months ago from WatchShop UK when they had a sale and this one I sourced from Japan.

Cheers

Sorry I meant how do you find the watch e.g easy to use, not too big

I love the rescue ... Where can you get that model? Just found out the red one I ordered is fake :0(

Ah no worries. The 1000 Series were love at first sight with it's unique case design and features that I look for in G-Shocks - solar and atomic. It's quite easy to use with the protect round pushers on the left and very cool flat pushers on the right.

Out of my 8200, 200, and 8250/1000 Series Frogs, the 8200 and 200 Series wear the best with because of the solid, lightweight titanium case. The point where the strap attaches at the lugs wrap around the sides of my wrist better.

The 1000 wears substantially on the wrist with it's solid stainless steel case. Its lugs seem to extend further out than the 8200/200 cases making the strap wrap a little further away from the sides of the my wrist. I should take photos to better visually assist my descriptions.

The GW-7900MS Rescue is available in Europe wit the model number GW-7900MS-3ER. Just sent you a PM where you get one
