    Fake Alert M & S fake Casio Riseman G-9200

    Looks like a claymation model from a Wallace and Gromit film! But I have just googled Marks and Spencers watches - there are 15 in the mens range all looking legit and no Casio-alikes. M&S gives same results. S&M gives some startlingly different links! Do you have a URL for this?

    And a PS: While drinking coffee in Costa I concluded a deal with a guy in Vienna for 2 G-Shocks and a Casio "oddity". Watch this space!

    Nice Frog - but what have you got in the box? And how can you "save for later"? With me The box gets ripped open as soon as I can grab it from a startled postie! Went for a wee trip into town and ended up in Costa: Nice, austere black and silver G-Shock but, like a dowdy librarian wearing...

    Skins for 6900

    Fair enough - it would be excessively boring if we all had identical tastes! Some of my best G's are black or black/silver: modded Frog Heavy Metal aka Stargate And then there is Jason - also available in black!

    It's a DWX-100 G-Lide. Nice clean face, easy to read. And I love the mid 90's futuristic looks! Only problem with sleeping a fair amount yesterday was not sleeping overnight. Hence now tired after a day out at wor...zzzZZZ <snore>

    Yesterday was not a good day. Woke with a ferocious "hangover" and was physically sick - strange as I haven't had a drink for seven years! Lay in bed and slept until 15:00. Decided to drag myself out for the monthly committee meeting so thought this would be noticeable and one they hadn't seen...

    What about red, silver, yellow, orange, green, blue, gold or pink and saying G-SHOCK ? Or even several colours together? Must admit though the the skins without any lettering do have an unfinished look about them

    State of your collection Jan 2012

    I tried to be smart and use the link from watchshock that shows my collection but this forum jibs at more than four pictures - there are around fifty that would be linked ! I really need a few decent cases as the "collection" is sitting on shelves in the box room, solars close to the window...

    For Sale BNIB Gw-7900Ms-3Er £65 posted

    Shame that I already have one because that is a good price! Nearly forty quid less than I paid for mine after searching for best price at the time. It's a great watch - looks good on the wrist and easy to read. If whoever buys it lives inland I will give them, FREE, my lat and long so they...

    DW-8200 modding

    Not sure yet. There is a genuine Frog on eBay at the moment missing a button, bezel and strap. Or I have a spare 1199 module that could do with a home. I can't believe anyone could be taken in by this, the finish is crude, back engraving is minimal, case is covered in nasty varnish. Nice light...

    DW-8200 modding

    Really pleased, my bargain Frogman has arrived and I have already started to think about modding it. It was sold as wanting a battery: I opened it and popped in a spare 398, for those of you who haven't seen inside a Frogman before here is a pic: As the seller says these are very...

    @rutteger - GOOD timing - you get to keep the watch. Remember the mantra "however many I have I still need one more" @Bubbly Tubs - we have a storm warning system too. It's called roof tiles smashing down into the street. Fortunately, as the 7900 shows, it's neap tides else we would be getting...

    Skins for 6900

    For most of us in here a G-Shock is technically interesting as well as a fashion item. For many wearers I suspect the G is primarily a fashion item (How else do you explain the popularity of Bapes or, indeed, Fapes selling at such premium prices?) So if I had spent £100 on a fake Bape I would...

    Seems like a bit of a watery bias to this weeks selections. The weather is not good in the UK - high winds and or torrential rain over the last few days - how is it in Jakarta Mr. GTR? There was some sun this morning so I thought this little chap could do with a top up on my drive to Gatwick...

    G-Shock Wademan DW-9800 restoration

    Good news! As for contact cleaner it should be find for all electrical components and circuit boards which I believe are glass reinforced plastic. Won't swear to it but probably ok with other resin products like G-Shocks. What would be good is for someone with some scrap watch platics to stick...

    Skins for 6900

    Interesting idea. Fits DW-6600 as well I would think. Useful piece of kit if you have a G-Shock with a broken strap or keeper, price not unreasonable against a new genuine Casio strap. I wonder how thin the silicone skin is around the buttons and how easily it will wear through? Who is going...
