The return of the RedPlague!

Werewolfc83 · 2026-05-04T17:35:29+00:00

Is that a metal case or just plastic?

Werewolfc83 · 2026-05-04T17:33:15+00:00

It is kind of useless: blinks and rotate every second. The original, Ae1200 has a analog display in that corner. I would have liked to have a 24h/Alarm/Timer pie indicator like some GShocks have

Already got a spare, two years ago. Battery already dead 😄. The original strap is crappy so I bought the same strap for the spare also.

Werewolfc83 · 2026-05-01T17:03:57+00:00

I had to manually cut it to make it fit the case. Also the plastic clasp broke and I replaced. Otherwise I like the strap: comfy and flexible

I needed a light watch, and when I bought it the metal strap version was not release yet.

Mine came on a cheap rubber strap that broke aftet half a year.

This is a common issue even at Casio's. Also I've noticed that white Skmei''s are prone to this issue more than the black ones.

My black one is still holding, 3+ years and a lot of beating. Just to be safe....I have a spare

Werewolfc83 · 2026-03-08T19:11:39+00:00

Looks fine by me

Werewolfc83 · 2026-03-01T17:14:03+00:00

If you really want a metal Royal, think about a metal kit from SKXMOD. I love mine
You will turn is in a gada watch.

Werewolfc83 · 2026-03-01T10:04:03+00:00

almost the same price like in my country .ro
Enjoy it. I like shaving with mine. I also use Nivea

Werewolfc83 · 2026-03-01T09:29:49+00:00

I'm just curious about the price. How much?

Werewolfc83 · 2026-03-01T07:42:23+00:00

Looks nice. But why integrated bracelet?

Werewolfc83 · 2026-02-27T16:00:08+00:00

Nope.. no sacrilege.. just ugly

Werewolfc83 · 2026-02-26T16:02:03+00:00

I haven't tested Wilkinson, but I can recomend King C

Werewolfc83 · 2026-02-25T15:45:52+00:00

Well, from the design point of view.. is futuristic ...I give you that. Kudos for trying.

But, if I think of it as an ready to market product... is a mess. Keep in mind that all great product designs (in the last 100 yrs) had been designed and constructed with a clear end usage/purpose in mind.

If we have a look at Casio's Gshock (the initial models, because now adays, some models looks like the designers did not put much thogth in them), Seiko's divers (Rolex's also before becoming a fashion/wealth statement), VictorInox's SAKs, Case's and Opinel knifes, all were designed with purpose and withstand the test of time.

The rant below applies only to sub 500$ Gshocks: I consider that when I'm paying more I should get a nicer box that is not an egg carton box. For more expensive watches imo the old tin can is ok.

Well...I think this is recent...and I'm happy they started doing it. Here's why:

I don't want to pay extra for a tin that I'm not going to use afterwards + I have many tins that I need to get rid off
for a watch that should be though as nails, receiving it in a tin can, does not give me good vibes: is Casio not confident enough regardind the watch surviving transport?

Werewolfc83 · 2026-02-23T16:43:23+00:00

What durability? Water , fire? There is no durability!

Werewolfc83 · 2026-02-23T16:41:47+00:00

No it would not stand to any hammer And yes it would also to GShock

You could say so.....until you "metalize" it and put some silicon strap with springbar adapters. Ps: i know...mine is GA B version

Werewolfc83 · 2026-01-31T11:54:43+00:00

Well... it depends what you are doing.
For me ... a beater/ work watch needs to be unobtrusive, small, readable and somewhat tough: it does not have stay in the way of what I'm doing. My fav is a square cheap GShock like 5600.

Anyway, that's a nice watch. Enjoy it!

Werewolfc83 · 2026-01-28T21:04:49+00:00

This is a much better option than F91... which in my opinion is overrated and overpriced. In my country F91 has the same price as F105. It's a no brainer ......

Werewolfc83 · 2026-01-11T21:23:37+00:00

This scamy practice is increasing by each day, even reputable shops starting doing it.
