Round + Hands + Digital + Multicolours = :cool:

Was that one from eBay that a bloke was selling "on behalf of a photographer friend who had used them in a shoot?" Saw that and decided against bidding as I still haven't come to terms with square watches - it's not natural! :)

Hi Robert the G, I had a sudden view of you coming along to our show next year dressed as a spiv with a load of G-Shocks fastened inside your coat. "Psst, wanna buy a watch? Nylons? Petrol coupons?" :D

Hi Jacko and welcome! Nice froggies - which one do you prefer? I too am lacking a Frogman in my collection, just need the right watch to come along at the same time as I have some cash. :cool: Presumably, as you live in Singapore, you have access to models and markets that aren't so easy for...

Hey guys! This is a watch forum, it's not about bikes. Honestly, you are as bad as that bloke who keeps steering the threads toward military vehicles! :p

Had it in my watch list but wasn't around for the auction and for some reason the eBay app on my phone no longer sends me alerts of auctions close to ending. And any money I have needs to go toward repair MoT on my Discovery and my Laguna :(

It's not all bad news, the fakes with the obvious faults are still out there. :( For 6900s especially there are the boxes and the rest of the packaging that are wrong, also many of the fakes look wrong, either the colours aren't right and/or the quality and precision of the lettering is off...

Yesterday and today - a well worn DW-004 with a 2184 module, no idea of the model number. It has a very yellowed G-lide style strap. Ideal for wearing on building sites but I do have plans forming as to restoration and customisation. In the jiffy bag I picked up last night: A G-Cool...

Woke late this morning and checked into the site. What a surprise - a lovely big wodge of Spam for breakfast. Went downstairs to make a cup of tea, came back and - it's gone! Someone has stolen the spiced ham treat! If you didn't see it - there was a dual posting, one in raw html and another...

Too busy to photograph the watch I was wearing to site today - on the road at 04:50, home at 19:40, just finished writing method statements and briefing sheets for next Tuesday's install. Hate to tell you this but got two in the post, collected at 19:30 from the post office - £1.25 postage each...

BPM - when you are listening to some bangin' choon you press the light button five times in time with the beat. The watch then indicates the beats per minute. Or, with the beats per minute set press the top right button and the watch bleeps at that rate for as long as you wish - ideal for the...

And I'm getting stuff that I pay 2 to 3 quid postage on through the door almost by return! Must say I like the Gulfman rather more than the G-300 - the digital dials seem too large in comparison with the hands but it may be because I have seen too many Froggies with hands recently :) Been too...

They certainly seem to be an establishment that boasts large plate glass windows - they can certainly see you coming :) Best thing to do with any watch you fancy is to google the model number - Casio GW-3000B-1AER as a not quite random example. This was a watch I spent a fair amount of time...

@ BoroGTi - thanks for your thank Nic, glad to help. If you can post the link to the watch then we can all go and have a look. I certainly won't be bidding even if it is genuine, can't see the attraction of Bapes over standard DW-6900 (and I'm not that keen on those!). There are plenty of far...

Hi Nic, Immediate reaction is that if it is a BAPE then it is fake! The vast majority of BAPES being sold online and in some shopping outlets are fake. One obvious thing to look for is the position of the day digits - a genuine DW-6900 has the day displayed under the first two windows, the...

À visit to the re-opened Royal Armouries at Fort Nelson today. Wore a DW-9500 on a webbing strap (not a NATO) and said hello to my old friend - the Ordnance Quick Firing 25 pounder - see below for a video of it in action - or is it? Laying the gun - in service until 1992 in the British Army so...

A nice yellow Riseman, multiband and tough solar Standing at £20 with no bids and 2 days to go. New with tags and in its tin. Mind you these pop up from time to time as well ...

There are a lot of fakes out there - probably 99% of the DW-6900 Bapes are fajke on eBay. Sometimes the seller is smart enough not to use the word "Casio" or "Bape" in the listing so they can plead that there is no copyright infringement if eBay threaten to close their account. The standard...

Correct - date should sit between the left and the centre eye. The photos are poorly lit but reasonable quality which is the vendor's first mistake. Second mistake is to pitch the buy it now price too low. The individual serial number looks wrong too. I always wonder why the sellers of these...

This is a very rare pink Bape bought from the Bape store in the good ol' USA. That's good on the authenticity front as there are no returns or refunds on this sale. Box looks nice, gold ape head, and the day squarely under the second eye. Eh? Bullshit meter needle banging against the max...
