    G-2310-1 Backlight problem - please help!

    Ok, let us know how it goes. Old solar batteries sometimes do that; the display shows that they're fully charged (and they are!), but they can't keep the charge. Since the EL is the biggest power hog of the whole module it drains enough juice to make the the display/module starve momentarily.

    G-2310-1 Backlight problem - please help!

    First thing I would check is the battery - looks like it's going (even though it displays H on the screen). If so, replace it with a new one and the EL will work like it's supposed to.

    GW-1100 - Anyone has? Please share.

    Buy a ticket on a commercial flight - that counts as flying and you'll be ok . One or two weeks ago I asked Seiya about the blue A1100 and it's out of stock .

    Who's going for the Rangeman?

    IIRC, an "overlap" among Frog series didn't happen before - I can't think of two series being produced at the same time. And I really didn't understand why Casio produced both the 8250 and 1000 at the same time to begin with, since they have basically the same module and looks . It wasn't like...

    Who's going for the Rangeman?

    The module that the Frogs use are relatively new, so form a commercial standpoint it wouldn't make sense for Casio to release something new so soon - specially if they're selling well. However, if the Rangeman does well, you'll have a good argument that customers will buy modules with different...

    Who's going for the Rangeman?

    I wouldn't be surprised if next year Casio released a truly new Frog - maybe even with a depth gauge. Right now with the current module the only advantage it has over any of the other MoG is that it is ISO (6425)-rated.

    Who's going for the Rangeman?

    I would say the 9300 will stick around just for it's "mud resistance", but the other 90xx will slowly get the axe. Though we know that's more hype then anything, Casio will continue to market it as the go-to watch if you want to get down and dirty. The Gulfman was a bit silly IMO, since as Gary...

    Sorry to ask this, but what time was that? 8:28am or 8:28pm (20:28)?

    Who's going for the Rangeman?

    At least for me, the Rangeman has become a water divider. I'm really curious to see what Casio can come up with next to live up to this model.

    The time in other Cities isn't right

    Start from the beginning: set your home city first, turn off DST and set the time, and then check other cities (and don't forget to factor in if the cities in question are using DST).

    And don't forget light; UV radiation is the prime factor in deterioration of plastics and resin, so make that a cool, dry and dark place.

    John, they look VERY good now, congrats! Interesting to see that some models are so easily prey to resin rot, while others withstand it much better.

    Article: New Era x G-Shock GA-110NE-9AJR - October 2013 G-Shock New Release

    Nah, too much "look-at-me" for my tastes . In fact, if I didn't know better I could think it's a knock-off.
