Is this a guess the G-Shock model number competition?

Could be, any ideas ?

Spend ages with that bezel, only cracked in one place before. Glued it. Touched up the text. One slip and it broke into bits, I helped it into the state you currently see it.

Close but no cigar.

Give that man a Winterman's Cafe Creme! Mind you, anyone who actually reads any of the dross I post in here will know that the only bezel replacement I have ever tried has been to my first ever G-Shock, my DW-6600.

So how close did I get?
