G-Shock Pawn

Not mine (cousin's) but worth sharing, these V3s are looking so good!

I'd be all over that, if the Big Bang and Royal Oak didn't exist.

For the same reason I steer clear of sub-alikes.

That aside, really cracking watch

Wheres fitting kit from?

[TheOversteerLever]

Some lovely G-Shocks on here.

Hopefully someone will know the answer to this question...

I have a GW-7900MS with the standard fabric strap that's looking a bit worse for wear. Is it possible to fit a resin strap from another G-Shock?

I've had the watch for years and given it some proper stick but the watch itself is mint, apart from the fact that it has decided to part company with two of the screws on the face. Anyone know of a supplier of replacements?

Thanks.

The first RAF limited edition...



It’s a big bugger but not as Flavor Flav massive as the pic makes it look...

Aliexpress. Quite a few to choose from.

The bezel screws of various colours and styles are available search g-shock 7900 bezel screws, any 7900 strap should fit... google is your friend.

UK exclusive and only 300 pieces at £250.

Is there money to be made if you get hold of one?

Saw that on G-Central last night, signed up.

I predict the site's going to go down on launch day.

So Casio refunded my 6month old GBD 100. I bought a Garmin Instinct instead and its night and day. The app actually works for a start. Pity as I liked the look of the GBD100

Anybody bought the metal/titanium kits for the square gshocks?

I've seen you can pick up full titanium bezel and bracelet 'homage' kits in either gun metal or camo pattern. Some pictures show it completely plain, but from what I can find online they are all actually copied and say gshock etc on them.

The full titanium kit with tools can be had for £90-115, I have this https://g-shock.co.uk/gw-b5600hr-1er which is the same module functions as the titanium, I think it cost me £140.

The genuine ti is just short of £1500.

Thanks, I watched a few of his vids before actually!

I'm tempted to go for the camo bezel and put it on a black rubber strap, my skinny wrists make any link strap feel awkward.

Was about to order Gshock parts on AliExpress then I remembered about brexit.

Am I going to get lumbered with custom taxes if I order something from there now?

Snap. I picked up an Instinct Tactical yesterday, pretty impressed with it so far. Quite fancied an HBD-1000, but poor reviews of the firmware/app turned me off.

For a 6 year old any apart from the square digitals are probably too big, theres plenty to choose from though.

Anyone going for the Royal Navy Frogman?

Anyone collecting all three models? Not a fan of the RAF Gravity master personally.

You'll pay vat to AliExpress at checkout. It works out cheaper than paying £8 post office custom clearance charge and vat on top.
