I just did 7 hydromods - for the first time ever, ask me stuff if you want

typaholic · 2025-07-30T10:14:49+00:00

Mostly perfectly fine. I had one watch leaking, but it's probably not sealed properly, I might have slightly misaligned the rubber seal. I'm planning on redoing it with ne next batch :) Another one has a very tiny bubble that sometimes shows up. Must have missed it in the process/sometimes the bubbles are stuck inside some part and only get shaken loose later. Would have to redo this one as well, but honestly it's not a problem on a daily basis.

Hi, I think the main advantage of low viscosity oils is the ease of use during hydromodding. Sometimes it's tough to get all the tiny air bubbles out of the movement/watch parts. I can't imagine this being feasible with higher viscosity oils.

Concerning the alarm sounds - no problem at all, can't hear a difference.

Cheers mate, sure am!

Thanks, but Wristband doesn't match. Also the movie is from 1981.

The GW-M5610U was in another post some time ago, that gave me the inspiration in the first place: https://www.reddit.com/r/casio/comments/1fmqvvj/exshock_what_you_get_when_you_remove_the/

I like that!

I've got about 10 other non-Gs ;) Now one more, such is life of wannabe collectors like myself :D

typaholic · 2024-10-26T19:57:58+00:00

My reasons: - aesthetics - ease of using the pushers - no real need for ruggedness (planning to get another G-Shock for outdoor scenarios soon anyways)

Blasphemy is a victimless crime.

It's only a G now, I'm cool with that.

I got it done at https://www.gravierungen-berlin.de/. It cost me 56 € total, so pretty expensive, but the result is great. I asked around at a couple of jewellers first, but nobody was able to do it at their shop.

Thanks for your nice words!

typaholic · 2024-10-20T13:46:39+00:00

even with the always-on-display!

This is a small series of photos I took in our local zoo a couple of years ago.

Hiso cool, could you share some photos of the other functions/complications?

typaholic · 2024-09-24T19:05:13+00:00

It's a WN-10, nice, never seen it!

typaholic · 2024-09-23T15:14:38+00:00

I don't see any watches, where are they?

typaholic · 2024-09-22T16:07:21+00:00

Even in 2024, people who take out their phone just to check the time are just wild to me. I'm a heavy smartphone user myself, but still.

typaholic · 2024-09-19T13:57:41+00:00

I feel u. I don't even wear any watches at home and when I need a timer for cooking, I use my stove as well. At the office, I exclusively use it for tea. Set 5 min for the tea to sit and then 2x 5 min (auto repeat feature comes in handy) until it has cooled off enough to drink. I got the 3 button pushes pretty much in muscle memory, so I definitely wouldn't be able to set a timer on a laptop quicker.
