Cracking price on the new GD-400 version, there are discount codes around to reduce the price even further - i paid £51 all in.

I just love the GD-400 and already have 4 different versions!
How/where did you get it for £51?

Its gone back up to full price now, but each morning for the last few days its been half price and then there are discount codes floating around which drop it even further.

Surely it can’t be just me who has bought the Mario Shock today??

Definitely think the watch could look better but also was never going to miss this one!

Think they are taking the piss with the price.
Wouldn't have minded if it was solar and atomic.

I am surprised it is a basic model but imho the price isn’t too bad only about £20-30 more than a standard model and comes with a themed tin and box so can see where that money went in the design.

Not saying you’re wrong in anyway just for me the price was justified.

Nah, the aesthetics don't appeal to me - the strap especially, too camo-like and I hate camo stuff.

Honestly I’m not really feeling it from the pictures but figured it would likely sell out which it has and didn’t want to risk seeing it and it look better in reality.

If i don’t like it i will offer it on here or send it back.

I think my G Shock days are over, especially the pure digi ones. I can’t read them anymore without my reading glasses and I it’s not practical put them on just to tell the time. I’ve gathered a reasonable collection over the years, but age has finally caught up with me.

Hope this doesn’t sound callous.

Feel free to send pics of any you wish to sell!

No worries! I think I'm just going to stay them away then take them on antiques roadshow when I'm 90.

I think you have done well to get one, they sold out very fast and are now on eBay at big premiums according to Facebook pages. Sounds like another one to be targeted by a lot of scalpers

If it arrives and I don’t like it i will see if anyone here wants it and if not will send it back to Casio. Not one for buying to sell myself.

Nah if you want it it’s yours.

Mail me your address you pay postage, if you want it send me the money if you don’t want it due to fingerprints (lol) send it me back.
