Firstly, I have an old one that has had a battery change, it often mists up on the inside is there anyway to stop this?

Also, any recommendations on where to buy a new one? Good ebay sellers etc?

Sounds like the gaskets are shot have you checked the case back gasket is seated correctly and in decent condition, and the caseback tightened fully etc.

You can ring Casio UK they might well have the OEM gaskets in stock.

There's a world outside eBay for G Shocks, have a look at the private sellers section on Watchuseek.

I've bought a few from there for a song, kept for months and turned a profit on eBay.

One other thing always apply silicone grease to the caseback seal as it will prevent the gasket from seating incorrectly.
