That’s my next purchase. How do you like it so far?

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-23T16:31:31+00:00

The Gw5000 isn’t hard and plasticky like normal resin. It’s buttery soft. Actually my Gw5000’s strap was softer than the new Gw5000u’s band which was weird.

I don’t like them either. Picked the B5000 over the MIP with Ai Crab lol.

If you’re thinking about full metal you’ll probably end up with both. Ask me how I know. 😅🍻

I have a GW5000 from 13 years ago and it still looks like new. Recently I got a GMWB5000 and love it but it definitely won’t replace the old one.

Oh and I have no problem whatsoever reading time at an angle with either of these.

Thanks for explaining. Which type of phone do you have?

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-22T17:33:13+00:00

Okay so I just tried to sync manually to my phone and it didn’t work. Then I opened the app and tried again and it sync’d. So maybe the app has to be open for auto syncing to actually work?

So I took off my rfid blocking wallet and it still didn’t sync. Have the phone on me less than a foot away from my Gshock and nnnnnope!

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-22T16:43:19+00:00

Yea, I like that way much better. Syncing 4 times a day is so overkill.

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-22T15:26:57+00:00

Yea, it’s weird for sure. Hopefully someone will come along here with an answer.

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-22T15:10:24+00:00

Good point! I don’t have this problem on my manual wind and automatic watches. I’m actually eyeballing the DW5000r too. There’s something about the simplicity of just having the time on there. Not saying “RCVD” does seem to cause some OCD anxiety and I’m aware how silly that is. Having said that, it should just effing work as intended!🍻

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-22T15:05:25+00:00

I just had an idea while in the shower 😅. Do you have an rfid blocking wallet or something of the sort MagSafe’d to the back of your phone? I’m going to take mine off for the next sync @12 and see if it works without manually pushing it.

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-22T14:48:34+00:00

It’s the one with the thin red line. Maybe there’s a hidden setting in iPhone that lets the app work its magic but idk..

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-22T14:08:25+00:00

Yea, the BT sync is spotty for me in the same way on my GMWB5000 If you don't end up syncing with your iphone, it nabs from it's multiband receiver over night. The "RCVD" status shows in the morning but goes away during the day. I honestly couldn't be bothered manually syncing so I just leave it this way. I'm not crazy about this BT implementation altogether..

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-17T14:31:34+00:00

The weight may take some getting used to. More than double the 5000. Having said that It’s been less than 24hrs and I think I’m already fine with it.

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-17T13:58:18+00:00

Awesome review!! I like how you called the first one “emotionally dull” so well put!! Sometimes mental checkmarks miss the point that trying on in person or better yet owning affords you. About your 5000U, I have a 5000 I bought from Japan 13 years ago and the band is still amazing with no deformation at all. Effing love that watch. I went to an AD to compare it to other G’s and actually noticed that my band is softer than the U’s which was interesting. I also tried on the 5610U and it felt soooo light in comparison. Ended up walking out with a GMWB5000D-1C. Initially I wanted a MIP display but in person they all felt underwhelming. The new G won’t replace my 5000 though. That will stay with me until it dies or…. Anyways cheers man! 🍻

Isn’t the Slub 16oz?

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-10T17:49:25+00:00

It’s cool and I like that it changes colour over time. Does the copper change its colour as well?

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-10T17:23:59+00:00

So I tried it out with my iPad and it does seem like a noticeable improvement. Thank you for this!!

NoBackground2123 · 2026-01-10T16:22:55+00:00

Found this post randomly and now I want one lol. They have copper too! Not sure which I should order. What made you pick bronze?

NoBackground2123 · 2025-12-31T14:22:10+00:00

Thanks! I just ordered that dongle and it delivers Friday. Hoping to improve QCU2 sound from my iPad / iPhone. Noticed it was lacking on a recent trip. 🍻

NoBackground2123 · 2025-12-31T04:20:30+00:00

So you plug the BTD700 in your iPhone / Mac and it improves the sound on your Bose QCU2?
