    WRUW : 12th to 18th December

    Beginning to feel the cold so wore a woolly pully today, Glad I did because of a nasty lazy wind (can't be bothered to go around you, just goes straight through). Working in Docklands on the DLR. This is me crossing Tower Bridge on the way to Poplar, camera wouldn't co-operate until I was almost...

    Fake Alert Limited edition-Authentic-Bathing-Ape-G-Shock-

    eBay don't seem to be pulling the fake G-Shocks and Bapes that I report. Someone bought this for £50. Meanwhile a genine item is sitting at £114 with just 8 hours to go. Maybe the fakes have killed the prices for genuine Bapes - though, as reported, some of the fapers are getting excessively...

    WRUW : 12th to 18th December

    Muddy. Long drive to Norwich and back with a bit of stainless steel to fit that I insisted was the wrong bit. Guess who was right! Also had black "Tickets" lettering to replace the blue lettering on the ticket flap of the machine I was working on. My request to take an already lettered flap was...

    A watch for Christmas

    Well, it's all in the news! Mary Portas is telling the government how it is and giving advice about rejuvenating the town centres. I will admit to using the shop window pictured at the head of this thread as a means of checking out what a GX-56 looks like in the flesj but there is no way I would...

    Dee & Ricky x G-Shock GA-111DR-7 UK release

    Really sorry to see that! :( :( :( And to be a bearer of further bad news - the going rate for "I bought two so have one going spare" Dee and Rickys on Watchuseek seems to be around the $300 mark :(

    eBay NOS G-Shock DW-8200ZU-1T Men in Black

    Works out at £338.90 in real money :) plus whatever premium PayPal are charging. Not overly unrealistic I thought. I have dealt with the seller before on a couple of occasions, nice easy transactions. He speaks reasonable English so should be no hassles.

    Why do YOU collect G-Shocks?

    Compared to collecting tractors and military vehicles G-Shocks are relatively cheap and require less maintenance. The right kind of tractor or MV attracts no tax and doesn't need an MoT so that doesn't enter the cost equation. Storage is less of a problem with G-Shocks and you can also take them...

    Fake Alert Limited edition-Authentic-Bathing-Ape-G-Shock-

    @seanobsdot - I think the way it has been done is by taking the entire module out, putting a printout or photo of a Casio watch face behind the main part of the crystal and putting the module back in so that the eyes show and the module holds the print nice and flat. Then photograph the set up...

    eBay A Bathing Ape Bape NFS Exclusive G-Shock Yellow Nigo

    From a seller with one bad feedback, looking at the comments it looks as though he fell foul of a particularly nasty buyer. Reasonable pics. As always don't take my word for it, check out the listing and ask all the questions of the seller if you are serious about buying A Bathing Ape Bape...

    Fake Alert Limited edition-Authentic-Bathing-Ape-G-Shock-

    Thanks for doing that! I could see it was a wrong 'un from a glance at the picture but the fact that the face was photoshopped or whatever completely passed me by. I have remedied that and am trying to find out what he has done to generate the picture: Let's see if I get a reply! For...

    Why do YOU collect G-Shocks?

    I think it may be down to a need to express individualism. For years I wore IBM standard suit and white shirt and "rebelled" by wearing interesting ties. When I moved to being on-site engineer for Legal and General I started to wear coloured shirts to go with the ties - to the point that when I...

    WRUW : 12th to 18th December

    My turn to start off the week. Just had the postman at the door with a jiffy bag for me with the watch I bought off eBay on 26th November inside. That's 15 clear days, partly explained by the seller getting my money (I normally pay by PayPal immediately after winning an item) and then relisting...

    F. Hinds in Havant. Not the High Street unfortunately, that is home to mainly empty shops but in the wee shopping centre. Full retail on most of the watches. Must take time to go to G-Shock East next time I'm working for the DLR
