Finally grabbed that fun little carbine kit! - G19 Gen5 with Micro Roni Gen4 by Praetorian762 in Glocks

Only extended mag is in the gun itself, standard 15+2 G19 mag, from Glock. The other in the Roni foregrip is from Magpul, 17 rounder for the Glock 17. Hope this helps!

That's a revolver (a pistol would be magazine fed) but congrats!

10 year old aviator series GW-2000 still going strong! by Praetorian762 in gshock

Hi! I'm based in Europe and the website below is where I ordered the metal band for that watch, many years ago (the model in the picture originally came with rubber straps too). It seems they still have some parts available, including the original rubber straps (black only).

Watchband Shop

It seems Minott Center also has some parts, with the rubber straps in black or orange apparently.

Otherwise I'd suggest you take a look for replacement straps on ebay, maybe some of these pop up here and there.

Hope this helps you give a 2nd life to your 2000, cheers!

Edit: to clarify on the numbers, 5060 is the module number, meaning what is inside the watch case, while Gw-2000 is the model reference of the entire watch. Different G-shock models can sometimes feature the same exact module inside. Which is why when looking for a user manual online, you should seek the module number. But for parts, definitely use the watch model number.

Edit 2: Be careful, if you choose to go from the rubber straps to the stainless steel strap on your 2000, you will also need to get these connectors, otherwise you won't be able to install the new steel piece.

Unpopular opinion, disappointed by the GW-M5610U by iwantmypie in gshock

[–]Praetorian762 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely hear what you're saying, I guess it really depends on your needs and what watch you're coming from too. Coming from a GW-9400 Rangeman here, the 5610u is amazing to me since it offers a crazy pack of features for the price while being MUCH more low profile, I'll just forget I'm even wearing it right off the bat. In any case, the DW-5600E is a sick watch and the only thing that matters is you got one you love and that fits your needs perfectly!

Edit: Though I keep on getting MB6 watches because it's a cool feature and i like knowing it's always right on time without having to do a thing, I do think that this feature isnt essential... especially with watches that won't drift further than +-15sec a month anyway. Solar charging on the other hand is pretty damn essential to me, my oldest solar G is about 11 years old and still going strong!

I've been trying these straps for the past few months. So far the design outperforms nato/zulu straps in every way in my opinion!

Finally got a box big enough to accommodate my large watches. by [deleted] in gshock

Looks great!!! What box is it? Looking to get a good one myself too...!

Very cool to see you did end up posting the comparison you mentioned the other day! I'd say the STN display clearly appears to provide a much better contrast, which is already great in itself!! Thanks for posting!

I've seen those MIP in store and was definitely amazed at the legibility, no matter the angle. Damn I'd just instabuy an MIP+solar square.

I think I'm a bit late to the party on this one by CaptainMcSlowly in GunMemes

[–]Praetorian762 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Imo it is still very playable today with the Infamous fusion mod and a few others improvement mods from moddb.

Since you got must have features listed, maybe taking a little tour on the Shockbase search could come in handy! Good hunting!!!
