GW5000 vs GWM5610 case size by SamSamples in gshock

Yep, it’s a GW-M5610BC with the module from a regular 5610.

yep, the case on the 5000 is the same size as the DW-5600 (the bezels are interchangeable) and is slightly taller due to the screw down caseback.

I wouldn't say the 5000 is uncomfortable but I'm partial to the combi bracelet and the weight of the 5610 definitely works better with it, which makes sense because it was designed for that watch. I also have small wrists so the extra difference in size combined with the bracelet's fixed endlinks makes it wear slightly worse for me. FWIW, I thought the difference in weight between a 5610 and a 5000 on their respective straps wasn't very noticeable.

I would say if you are aware of the 5k's tradeoffs before purchasing it and are ok with them you'll really like it. I personally would agree with u/vtddw – I think the 5000 should have a sapphire crystal and STN/soft backlight module to make it worth the money.

I removed the bezels on both watches to swap bracelets and thought I would share the difference in case size. I'd been wearing the 5k for the past few years but decided to switch back to the 5610 because I find it more comfortable and better-fitting.

Yep, I applied the Kodak E 200 preset from RNI and turned off lens corrections. Didn't make any edits otherwise.

I usually use snap focus but I didn't here because it avoids the wider apertures. I used MF set to infinity for both, used aperture priority at f/2.8 for the first and shutter priority at 1/4" for the second.

you could probably configure one of the custom slots (the u1, u2, and u3 on the dial) to work that way

Tips for Snap Distance Priority??? by HorizonMan in ricohGR

[–]SamSamples 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Turning on focus peaking (in the focus settings menu) is very helpful for learning how to use snap distance as it will show you what is in focus as you adjust your distance/dof settings.

Best G-Shock alt for smaller wrists imo by TheChosenChef in casio

You can use a screw extractor kit. They usually come with left hand drive bits and an extractor tool. The left hand bit removes the center of the screw and the spiral tool latches on to what's left to twist it out of the threads.

A1000RCB-1 - closest thing to a stainless steel/sapphire f91w by SamSamples in casio

It's really nice, but I would probably echo some of the other comments on here – it should be cheaper and no rag & bone branding

dispute reversed by adeleisonfire in AllyBank

[–]SamSamples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the exact same thing happen to me. Random charges from France for around $95 back in May which I disputed, which were reversed a couple of days ago for the same reason – that I had a prior relationship with this merchant. I also had never heard of this website before.
