I have been a little too busy in the past couple of days. :redface-new: A couple from the UK with an instruction not to hurry to the post office - it's slippery out on those pavements! One cheap gamble, in khaki, and a black 6900. Two from the States have been in the post for some while now :(

Well done! I wondered who would be the first to spot my deliberate mistake! :very_drunk:

Good luck! Amazon UK is PDQuick but Stateside you have bigger distances to contend with. But you have aircraft to move parcels around the country, we have posties on bicycles :D As is traditional here when we are all waiting on the arrival of your new watch pictures of it being unboxed and on...

Casio Gshock G-Shock Frogman Black Helios GW 200 CASIO FROGMAN Says it all really. Honest description from seller (1300+ transactions 100% feedback). Has been negged but reasonably easy to convert back to positive display. But with auto backlight and no battery worries due to solar quite...

@rutteger - skin turning green, if accompanied by swelling of muscles and clothes ripping apart is Banner syndrome. Maybe it wasn't a reflection at all but me being slightly irritated at something ... Anyway, back to snow! Great drive today to East Sussex using country roads. Trees with the top...

Might want this in the wiki but may also be of interest in this thread. I was searching for information about dyeing bezels and bands, especially jellies and came across this (I have a weird search engine!): http://www.nist.gov/pml/div688/grp40/radioclocks.cfm

Here's an easy one for those still learning the numbering - a classic DW-6900 - genuine and not one of those horrible fake Bapes that infest eBay. Like the bape this has writing on the strap - "G-Shock is dedicated to the soul foot in motion" but there is no fancy engraqved back. DW-6900H-4 (4...

Will check g-2500 for military markings tomorrow, just got into bed and it's too cold to get out again! Thought I would join the positive v. negative debate with this: Picked up my Emission:Improbable from the sorting office this evening, got home and there was another red card on the mat -...

Great watch! Great service. (The other watches aren't too shabby either :D ) The universal praise for the King in these pages persuaded me it was worthwhile buying one and guess what? The people in here were 100% correct! Now it looks like I will have to save up for the Muddy (and also the...

Been home for two hours and only just stopped shivering! Been at work since 0800 outside in the cold with the benefit of a keen wind adding to the fun. Sense of humour failure around 1600 when feeling in hands was lost. Left Eastbourne at 18:15, car outside temp was showing as -5 C. Back with a...

Oi! Nowhere as good as the M&S effort - they don't even look like a Riseman! :D Not sure what they do resemble, sort of AW-591 meets DW-6900 meets Timex Ironman. Ugly piece of kit in my opinion. And sorry, have had a look on the net and can't find a King in the UK for less than £80 and most...

I recognise it, second time it's up for auction. I am not saying that the guy may be aware that this is a definite ringer but he seems to deal in Barbour and Gucci clothing, both items that are heavily "homaged" down to the labels :D

MT-G, very posh! Drilling and getting dirty today so time for a tough but potentially disposable cheapie. What better than this Riceman: Not just a Chinese copy Riseman but an M&S Chinese copy Riseman ... Actually works quite well even though it looks like s*** on the wrist. If I weren't...

Newsletter is a good idea for those who visit less frequently than me or who get somewhat less involved. Has it brought traffic to the site? The 6900 competition seems to have brought a few new faces to the site and one or two seem to have joined in the discussions. Perhaps next time the...

@seanobsdot - nice to see you in this thread! @rutteger - no snow for me (yet). Yes the watch is as shown in the linky but neither it nor watchshock.com archives show this particular colourway - needs a nice NATO strap in sand or khaki to set it off. Yes it has had some wear, another abused and...

Seems obvious to me - one of each! I've been banged up in my flowery all weekend designing magazine ads, flyers and posters for our forthcoming military show. You probably haven't heard me mention it before ... :cool-new: Not much call for a watch as I couldn't deviate from my task. Decided I...

Pleased that you find the watch as good as I do. Not too difficult to set up at all, love manual setting of hands and watching them rotate - like the old cinema cliche of "time passing". watchsite.co.uk sounds like one to add to the wiki in the suppliers section Enjoy your watch and the...

Pictures please!

When my interest in Casio watches was re-awakened by an advert for the Edifice range I spent a long, long time searching for the most attractive G-Shock I could find. Finally ordered a GW-3000 from TikTox, it arrived quickly and well packed. I opened the package, opened the box, took the lid...

My selection for today (and fuel for the negative v. positive display debate) This one is fine if the angle is right but most times needs the light button pressing in order to see the digits. Got some interest and positive comments when I wandered into work on my way home from a site survey...
