G-Shock Pawn

I'm not a fan of the neg display models either.

I've got one of these

and am wondering how difficult/expensive it would be to convert it to a postive display.

I've recently bought one of these too, I find the display ok in most lights but can be tricky sometimes. Other than that I love it, have a metal g shock too but this one is much lighter, more comfortable and I dont have to worry about scratching it up at work!

I Love the GD-400 series, and am looking at completing the series but there are a few with neg displays that i just know i'd never wear.

I think i will probably move the neg display one on at some point.

After reading some good reviews of the Mudman G9000 here's my latest arrival.

That looks great, I might get one as a "gym watch".

I just ordered this for daily use...

That's nice! Please can you tell me the model number. Thanks.

It’s part of the G Steel range, there’s a few different versions. Mine has a steel bracelet and negative displays.
The one with the leather strap is above is on offer for £215 at the moment. They also have it with rubber for £199.

It was on the Casio outlet also for £150 ... Not sure if it's now sold out though

Thank you. Just bought one. Hope it arrives when wife not in! The other versions look great but I decided to go with the positive display one. Negative displays look good in pictures but are useless in daylight. Thanks again.
Interesting that the 'Last one available' at £189 listing now says two available at £199. It's a funny world!

I love these gd-400's.

Simple, tough, rugged and easy to read. Everything a g-shock should be!

I just picked up a gd350 yesterday. It's a negative display but this one actually works. I like this more than I thought I would.

Popped into the G-Shock store on Carnaby Street London this week.

So much great stuff, lovely shop must say. Really set out nicely with a huge range.

Christmas shopping here I come...for me!

Watchshop are doing a flash Casio sale, plenty of discounts on G-Shocks

Is there something I am missing about this... looks nice but pricey what's the scoop?

I like G-Shocks but this doesn't hit it for me. If people are prepared to spend that much on it then good luck to them. Personally, it looks cheap and I wouldn't give much more than 70 quid for it.

Still on the look out for a good condition red g-56 if anyone knows of one?

Mine arrived today. Really nice watch. It's bloody massive! Far too big, even for my thick wrists. Shame really as I like it. There's no way I could wear it without being self conscious. Am returning it. It's just daft.

[Stussy]

How big are your wrists? Mine are about 9” and that’s the watch that fits me best!
It’s annoying because iTS the standard I set for other purchases, and am struggling to find others that suit me.
I got an SKX009 which I loved, but it looked ridiculously small on me. Everyone said get a Sumo instead, and that is just about ok. I ordered it online and was a bit disappointed that it wasn’t much different to the SKX.
I’m still struggling to find a big diver I like. Maybe I’ll have to stick to large G Shocks

[Sterillium]

Which bit is too big... the watch face or the strap!? Fits perfect for me, although I like a big chunky watch.
