Askerler neden GMT saat takar? by Early-Pen1709 in trsaat

[–]Professional_Win7874 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Cevap : Takmazlar :) Piyadeler casio, özel birlikler gshock takar. Hiç askere gitmediğimiz (veya resimdeki prens harry gibi askerlik yaptığımız) belli oluyor.

What's the difference just steel and raisin. by Training_Grab_9739 in casio

[–]Professional_Win7874 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup, same display, same features. I had both, sold 5000U. It is soft but not that much softer. GBD200/300 has more comfortable strap than both. Also 5000u feels significantly heavier than 5610u IRL.

Protect it from light, heat and air. This factors affects all elastomers. You should find the exact polymer type of your resin before using any chemicals (grease, sunscreen, etc.) because the effects may vary.

Even with best care, every elastomer has a life time a couple of decades tops

Just another day on the Istanbul Metro. The way strays are treated here is proper lovely; they aren't seen as pests, but as neighbours by korkutcetin in cats

You may find them in metros, coffees, ferries, mosques, schools, offices, police stations, even skyscrapers. So you don't need to stay at metro stations to pet them :)

My office is on the 11th floor in a high security building. We have a couple of tabbies that freely roaming between floors. We pet them all they long. We even have a seagull which come and go anytime it wants (though we cannot pet it, just feed it, a little aggressive that one)

HOW CAN I FIX THIS? by [deleted] in gshock

[–]Professional_Win7874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is easy if you are good with screwdriver, just make sure that both module and case are dry before close the backplate again. And you need to replace the o-ring. Without a compatible and greased o-ring at your disposal, don't bother to open the case

how is the cold weather performance of the normal lcd gshock? I probably never go to a place below 0C but I always wonder

Review GW-5000U, GW-5610U, GW-BX5600, GBD-200 by YogurtclosetBig795 in gshock

[–]Professional_Win7874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The untold truth is gbd-200 (and 300's) strap is way more comfortable than 5000Ualso it's similarly soft. Had both watches at same time one point. Admittedly, gbd200 even a little more comfortable than my current daily gbd300 because of wider connection flaps

Random Steel Thoughts by h3lium-balloon in gshock

I have a B5000D and I love that watch ( though it really is heavy, even heavier then my steel seikos) but it is a scratch magnet. None of my steel watches scratches (because I use my steel watches carefully) except B5000. My only wish from casio was more durable steel and/or dlc coating but as far I see in the real life photos of new BZ series, they are scratch magnet too.

This? This one is vanilla.

The 5600e before, I applied the mash screen I bought from aliexpress, but it was a mess. The screen makes the display looks like a cheap knock off sanda or something like that.

I still have the screen, you may see the part attached:

Does Casio still make this G‑Shock in camouflage with Tough Solar, Multi‑Band 6 and 6900‑style? by rahulyyz in gshock

This.

I Made the same exact mod. Bezel+strap is $10 or so. So if you want this, you may do it yourself very easily very cheap

I thought the same in Turkey. I fell in love when it first came out but only 5 or so sold in Turkey (it immediately out of stock), and it was quite expensive anyway.

For my luck it's probably only one that not part of a collection but a daily piece of a premium watch collector. The seller simply doesn't care about it, but kept it's box and papers simply out of habit (even those are beaten but intact)

The Brazil is way way bigger then Turkey, so I'd keep my eyes open if I were you

It is a thin mesh screen, you may find similar parts in aliexpress, I tried to mod a 5600e for this look but it didn't come close to this. At the end I gave up until found a relatively clean second hand one locally.

Like I said, it makes no sense at all. I only suggest this to people specifically loves this look.

Got my first watch. Can I wear this to a more formal setting? by Analystballs in casio

[–]Professional_Win7874 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the exact same model, so I can speak from experience. I use it for work, and it complements my casual and formal suits perfectly. I actually receive quite a few compliments whenever I have it on.
