    eBay BAPE x G-Shock DW-5600

    As you say, looks ok but the number appearing on eBay is a cause for concern. There is no definitive "wrong" thing to look out for so I would suggest that, as always, buyer beware. A genuine seller should be happy to respond to a request for recent photos and further info about the watch. If...

    What are your G-Shock plans for 2012?

    Not the biggest collection true, but quality watches and excellent colours. I have a recently bought Jason which is great for confusing people who think it is made by Fisher-Price! Also a couple of Hypercomplexes - the yellow bezel and the black and gold - I see you like them too. Pleased the...

    WRUW : 19th to 25th December

    Will do a comparison of the two in greater depth when I find the time - took today off but tomorrow is writing reports, doing method statements and work plans and sorting out my own accounts. Boxing day is yet another day off! Then back to work Tuesday. Stargate is slightly smaller than King...

    WRUW : 19th to 25th December

    Having a lie in, thinking about taking the GW-3000B for an outing when Roger the postie rang the doorbell. Today's choice of G has been made for me by a combination of quick packaging by the eBay seller and speedy work by Deutsche DHL and the post office. Paid a stiff price for this one but it...

    What are your G-Shock plans for 2012?

    @nickyc - when you type your replies in the "quick reply" box there is a line of icons on the top. The furthest right is for quoting - select the area of text you want to include in quotes and click the icon. To the left is an icon that looks like two frames of cine film that is to embed a...

    WRUW : 19th to 25th December

    I thought it was around the best I could hope for - from watches2u. Tried typing "watches2u promo code" into google and got an additional 7% off with code W2U1 entered at point of sale. Cheaper than anything I could find on eBay, orderedon Monday, City Link delivered Wednesday with order...

    Fake Alert Stussy x G-shock DW-6900

    Your man has done the decent thing and pulled the listing. As he has over 1500 feedback with 100% rating it could be that he has fallen foul of a hooky vendor himself :

    G-Shock highlights of 2011

    Making the big decision to spend £150 on a watch! Getting the GW-3000B. Discovering watch forums in general. Discovering G-Shockzone in particular. Taking a deep breath, changing the battery and bezel on my ancient and well worn DW-6600 Finding a tremendous range of G-Shock models on eBay and...

    WRUW : 19th to 25th December

    Working for DLR today, itinerary somewhat dictated by my DLR counterpart's need to go to certain shops! Must get to Brick Lane sometime when I am in DLR land. Gave my new King its first outing, think I got a bargain at £65.10 including post, been admiring the one in Hinds' window at full £125...

    I did my own Dee and ricky

    @nickyc - what will help is to have the correct, good quality tools to hand. You don't need many and it may make more sense to buy decent tools individually rather than, as I did, buy a "watchmakers tool kit" from eBay. I soon splashed out on a decent screwdriver to replace the one in the kit...

    What are your G-Shock plans for 2012?

    @nickyc What he said! You shouldn't need a computer science degree just to translate a page or two of a foreign language. Dropping an email to them is a good move, I will bet that their English is far better than my Dutch - English tends to be the second language of most Europeans, for many...

    What are your G-Shock plans for 2012?

    Get my contract renewed so I can continue to earn some money in order to buy some G's. :) Refine the collection and get some display cases. Wait for really good condition or interesting rare pieces, buy some new stuff (still have some watches recently bought and not shown on here yet!). Try...

    WRUW : 19th to 25th December

    WRUW : 19th to 25th December

    @ rutteger - Don't worry too much, I will give it a clean before the next outing. Nice Skyforce, that is one of the models on my shopping list. Today at Kings Cross, very grand, meeting in the board room then walk round the new station building surveying where the ticket machines are due to...
