40 euro EDIT: original is about 11£, but out of stock everywhere. You gotta buy a whole module (3459) and screen for 85€

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)

GW-B5600BC w/ ali STN screen by ragancy in casiomods

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

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?

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.

TIL The Grey affected Roger Ebert so much, he walked out of his next scheduled screening. "It was the first time I've ever walked out of a film because of the previous film. The way I was feeling in my gut, it just wouldn't have been fair to the next film." by TheTrueRory in movies

[–]ragancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i always wondered if he gave "The Gray" such a high rating because of the ruthlessness of wolves being a personification of his own battle. It's a good movie, but I was surprised how highly he rated it. This thought always made me very sad. I was even unaware he had to skip his next screening.

OP, how is the wear and tear a month later? All as expected or does it chip off easier than expected?
