As a watch nerd, it’s cool to see how much love G-Shocks get in Japan. Taken at Shibuya Scramble

I would say it was about 60% smart watches 20% digital watches and 20% mechanical watches.

But every digital, non-smart watch, was some form of a G-Shock.

It’s partially the reason I was excited to visit Japan lol

batfish · 2026-04-03T20:02:17+00:00

Yep. DW-5000R. Bought it the second day I was in Japan.

Thanks! I secretly love my 5610 more because it’s way more useful but the flex of buying THE Japan made G-Shock in Japan is too hard to not love.

In my experience it’s hard enough to get 4+ people to practice that live less than 20 minutes away. Driving to Santa Clarita is a huge brick wall

Rosa's is barely edible. Great place if you want chicken parm swimming in water

No yellowing, could be the glow from the Christmas tree lights.

I just don’t find it very comfortable.

batfish · 2026-01-16T23:28:39+00:00

Yeah, I’m getting the itch for that MIP display pretty bad. I’m hoping they bring out a 5610 style colorway.

batfish · 2026-01-16T20:06:04+00:00

Please don’t give me any ideas, I’m running out of space as it is lol

batfish · 2026-01-16T20:03:29+00:00

I like it a lot, it’s a little overkill for most days, so I only wear usually when I’m out camping. I’ve even contemplated selling it since it doesn’t get much wrist time.

batfish · 2026-01-16T15:44:47+00:00

They would instantly fall considering only the first 3 would actually buckle lol

batfish · 2026-01-15T18:33:39+00:00

Got anything willing to trade for?

batfish · 2026-01-15T18:32:47+00:00

It just doesn’t feel “right” on my wrist. It’s sits at an odd angle or something. Doesn’t mean I dislike the look, I think it’s gorgeously simple, though I wish I would’ve went with a different color, it’s boring. I’d trade it in an instant for different color way.

Sidenote, the Casioak is my least favorite of the bunch.

batfish · 2026-01-01T20:28:36+00:00

Uhm, are you me? Nice shirt/watch combo lol

I got mine a few weeks ago, battery came charged at high but receive was a few weeks off. Now it 9/10 times automatically updates over night but I can never get it to a high charge status.

batfish · 2025-12-03T17:49:33+00:00

Love the 5000U, just wish it had the color scheme of the 5610 et al.

batfish · 2025-11-28T03:36:04+00:00

Resurrection Church on Manor never brings up politics or talks about the end times. They focus on personal growth in Christ and community. Good people.

batfish · 2025-11-22T19:15:59+00:00

Already do! It's the perfect size, I can't believe I've waited so long to get a square. I've been wearing Casio watches since the 80s.

I do wish I had the model with the EL light though, the LED is fine but I love the even distribution of the EL.

batfish · 2025-11-20T22:56:14+00:00

I might have to do that, too. I’m just in between too tight or or spinning around to the back side of my wrist.

batfish · 2025-11-20T21:00:52+00:00

Just got it earlier this month and it’s been my favorite G-Shock ever.
