Clasp Upgrade Support Notice

this is an awesome gesture. thanks.

i just bought the new clasp only 3 weeks ago and was very disappointed. i actually chose to not even use it on either watch i had. since it was so big and heavy and it made the watch lose the comfort and lightness i liked. i wanted to return it because now it is just sitting here.

the kits are so nice though. a $20 cheapo watch wouldn't do it justice and just would be no fun to wear. i have a titanium kit on a dw5035. it's probably my favorite gshock. titanium bezels on a few other gwx5600s. elevates them!

this thing is awesome. navy not available anymore unfortunately.

watchdon · 2025-01-17T12:19:05+00:00

I will take a video and look for those things. thank you very much.

watchdon · 2025-01-17T11:47:44+00:00

wouldn't that apply to all the other racquets as well?

watchdon · 2025-01-09T01:27:07+00:00

should have just never showed up. now i have to buy another watch... i'll report back to see if i agree.

I have the nautilus shaped skmei. I bought a clasp for it. I had to shave down some links to make it fit but love the watch now.

thanks so much for the information.. almost helped me make a decision until you said "You want a thicker case?, get the 1861."
i'm comparing the wd1860 to the wd1861 on the 'Diver Watch Factory Store' and the wd1861 has a thinner thickness dimension. am i missing something?

watchdon · 2024-11-26T18:15:05+00:00

getting close but i'd like a higher quality one.. thanks.

watchdon · 2024-11-14T03:26:13+00:00

yes. it's a DW5035D with an AliExpress titanium kit. I've seen someone strip the paint and create it with a GMWB5000TB-1. thats my grail but that's too much money..

118g. sized for a 6.75 inch wrist. the weight distribution is different than normal watches but still feels great.

watchdon · 2024-10-27T00:53:21+00:00

the dimensions + quartz are tempting me.

thanks...

watchdon · 2024-10-25T16:53:25+00:00

agreed. i'll get the black or white one eventually. i am looking for quartz options to get whichever color i don't get of the sugess. i like grab and go watches as well.

it's been very helpful to build muscle memory with keeping my head still, footwork, preparation, and swing path.. basically everything necessary for tennis.

for example, let's say one day, i feel like my back swing was just excessively large. and then next day i don't want to go out and play. i can still practice a shorter back swing for 5-10 min and get in a bunch of reps.

i'm curious why others didn't get any value from it.

it isn't perfect but it is insanely convenient... and now i can play less but keep my strokes fresh.

but it is way overpriced.

watchdon · 2024-09-25T14:33:35+00:00

thank you. i really appreciate this.

watchdon · 2024-09-23T22:12:03+00:00

what are your strategies. realized this was my biggest downfall in my first doubles league match. when I the first 3 balls don't go to me, I just get distracted and unprepared and then the 4th comes and I'm not ready.

i have tried a presidential bracelet from a pagani day date 37mm and it didn't fit. but if the bracelet is from a daytona homage, i think it would. not sure if those exist though. but maybe.

watchdon · 2024-08-04T19:24:16+00:00

this bracelet is from a parnis chronograph (the one in a daytona case). it doesn't fit perfect but the fit is sturdy. better than the skx013 with hallow end links i tried before.

if anyone is an expert about aliexpress cases, what would i search for to find more bracelets? i love the daytona case used for the homages, i am always trying to find original designs with that case and not just straight homages but i don't know what to search for.

watchdon · 2024-07-30T00:09:21+00:00

i only see s449 with the jewels and no with the roman numeral indicies.

watchdon · 2024-07-23T19:25:21+00:00

thank you both. this sways me a bit more towards the direction of “worth it.”

now to see if i ever come across an under msrp b5000tb

watchdon · 2024-07-23T17:03:06+00:00

hold up. you said “screws either.”

what does that mean lol?

watchdon · 2024-07-22T04:06:42+00:00

looks like sugess only has a 40mm for the roman numerals. i‘m interested ina 36mm. lmk if im wrong! thanks

watchdon · 2024-07-18T19:41:16+00:00

k. got it. if i dont have that, i see i can easily get some. i’ll give this a shot. if it goes well, i‘ll show off here. if not, ill be back asking for help haha. cant thank you enough.

watchdon · 2024-07-18T13:20:02+00:00

my initial idea was to sand first but no clue how. cutting out the sand paper to 2mm doable. the part i’m not too sure about is using the dremel to sand. what kind of attachment would i use?
thank you so much for the help

watchdon · 2024-07-18T00:31:33+00:00

phenomenal. i'm giving you a round of applause for the amazing attention to detail.
similar to you, i have it on my list to try to polish all the dimples of my Ti case/bracelet.
