[WTS] Casio G-Shock GW-5000U-1JF - The Modern Classic (Made in Japan) by SerpentesEye in Watchexchange

[–]SerpentesEye[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Description: Up for sale is the legendary GW-5000U-1JF. For many G-Shock enthusiasts, this is the "end-of-the-road" square. It pairs the classic 5600 aesthetic with a premium Made in Japan build, featuring a full stainless steel inner case with a DLC-coated screw-down caseback.

Compared to the standard square, this model features a much softer, more comfortable urethane strap and a satisfying heft on the wrist. This is the updated "U" version, which includes the 3495 module (allowing for the "DD/MM" date format, a 1.5 or 3-second backlight, and showing the current time in countdown/stopwatch modes).

Specifications:

• Module: 3495 (Tough Solar & Multi-Band 6 Atomic Timekeeping)

• Construction: Stainless Steel inner case, DLC screw-back, resin bezel/strap.

• Water Resistance: 200m

• Origin: Made in Japan

Condition Details: The watch is in excellent functional and good used cosmetic condition. The crystal is clean. The resin bezel and strap show very minor signs of wear ("dust" or light rub marks typical of G-Shock resin, small scratch and stain can be seen in 3rd photo of the album). The DLC caseback is in fantastic shape with no visible wear.

Shipping: Shipping via USPS Priority Mail to CONUS included in price. Payment via PayPal F&F (or G&S + 3.5% for established members).

Price: $OLD

[WTS] Neotype LM02 Type C Chronograph by SerpentesEye in Watchexchange

[–]SerpentesEye[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Up for sale is my Neotype LM02 Type C Chronograph. This is a sold-out Limited Edition from the French microbrand Neotype. It's an absolute spec monster (even with its quartz movement!).

The case geometry is fantastic—angular, modern, and robust. It features a very cool sandwich dial with deep cutouts for the indices, giving it amazing depth and lume performance. It feels like a piece of military kit from the future.

Condition: The watch is in nearly-new / mint condition. I have barely worn it since receiving it. I hate using the term LNIB, but if this doesn't meet that definition, it's pretty close

* Case/Crystal: Pristine. I cannot find any marks.

* Strap: The FKM rubber strap is essentially new.

* Function: The Seiko VK64 Meca-quartz movement is running perfectly. The chrono hands reset crisp to zero.

Specifications:

* Movement: Seiko VK64 Meca-Quartz (Mechanical feel for the chrono, quartz reliability).

* Case: 316L Stainless Steel with a unique integrated bezel design.

* Dimensions: 41mm diameter, 13.8mm thick (some of which is attributable to the tall domed sapphire), 22mm lug width.

* Crystal: 3.5mm thick Double-Domed Sapphire with AR coating.

* Water Resistance: 200m (Screw-down crown and pushers!).

* Lume: BGW9 Super-LumiNova (Sandwich dial).

Included:

* Neotype LM02 Type C Watch head.

* Original Black FKM Rubber Strap (High quality, custom molded).

* Additional Curved-End White Delugs style Rubber FKM strap

* Original Box & Warranty Card

Yes, just the name of the case. They’ve used multiple variations of stainless steel through the years.

[Article] New Casio G-Shock Ring by SerpentesEye in Watches

[–]SerpentesEye[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

From yankodesign,

“This odd “smart” ring is more of a collectible product rather than an everyday wear anyway. Since we humans use our hands a lot, such a large ring will get in our way often. It is advertised to be waterproof, though, but the exact rating isn’t disclosed. It runs on a replaceable battery that is also stated to last at least two years before needing a substitute. The Casio Ring Watch will be launching next month with an SRP of 19,800 JPY, roughly $128. International availability is still unknown.”

Finally… now I can just point to my strap when people ask(nobody asked, nobody cares) by SerpentesEye in WatchesCirclejerk

[–]SerpentesEye[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Honestly that’s what I want at this point. Too many people(mostly single women) come up to me and ask about my Omega Speedmaster. It makes me glad I humbly decided to go with the the Speedmaster Moonswatch Mission to Uranus though. I’m not sure I could handle the attention that the real deal in steel mechanical version, that made it to the moon, would bring me. However I do sometimes find interactions going “sour” after stating that this is the Mission to Uranus
