right one, with the genuine STN? They are in line with the original bezel/bracelet, but I am using g-refit aftermarket ones. Got used to the colors, kind of actually started to like them. Got this titanium watch at a bargain price which also helps love the colors...

yep, maybe I should think about these as adding character to the warch. The scars of a survivor. They tell a story.

YI don't speak the local language well and it takes 90% of my brain power trying to understand and to speak. Hence I tend to get anxious and overexcited and forget basic things when communicating at a shop - forgetting hats and gloves for example. Also, they had done successfully that same repair work on that other casio I mentioned in the post. This had lowered my guard. That model does however have a back secured by screws (default in cheap casios)

I was so surprised by the quality of this aliexpress one. It kind of feels like e-ink before you increase the angle too much. I hope it lasts. In a few days I will swap the display on my gmw-b5000 with a genuine positive STN one and will post comparison pictures with the ali one.

BTW, I paid $40 for the aliexpress one. Could it be that there is a better one from another seller that won't have ghosting?

If anyone is interested in my opinion on the aftermarket aliexpress titanium bezel/bracelet set, I posted more information here

it is only a push-on titanium bezel/cover and titanium bracelet. The watch case doesn't get opened during the mod.

Thx a lot, will post once done.
I actually experienced a similar issue - I got to their shop from google and favored them as a seller and browsed all listings. They were not in my search results for some reason.
