Reply With QuoteIf they throw in a Watney's Party 7 & a re-release of "Now that's what I call music 1" …. I'm in!
I received an email the other day saying it was back in stock but by the time I'd clicked on the link they were all gone. Another email today and I've just snagged one, I'd imagine you'd have to be quick.

I have managed several times to put one in the basket, but cannot complete the order. I have clicked on both PayPal and by entering debit card details and it just flashes away. After about 10 mins it just dies.
Exactly the same here Ken, no joy at allOriginally Posted by Wallasey Runner
I am loving my negative display version on the resin strap. Great watch.
Might try and get a metal strap to try it on.
I had the same on my phone but managed to get it finished on my laptop instead. You also need to enter a company name for some reason, I just put my own name in.
Followed this exactly, and the order went in easily.
Many thanks for your help
Good show!Followed this exactly, and the order went in easily.
Many thanks for your help
See below Andrew...Exactly the same here Ken, no joy at all
Thank you Paul, you are a star. I used the wife's laptop, went down the debit card route rather than PayPal and entered good old me as a company and it went through like a dream.
Thank you Paul and give it a go Andrew.
Just seen you post - well done. No wonder they are still available!!!
I am a little bit tempted by this. Never owned a G shock but remember them in the early 80's from secondary school when what digital watch you owned seemed to set some kind of pecking order. Will sleep on it I think
You have to wonder how many people gave up. I wasted about an hour and a half trying
Thank goodness for the useful tips above.
They have been selling out fast, and then only available for £600 upwards!
I would suggest getting one whilst you can.
I managed to bag one for me and 2 for mates so thanks for the tip off OP

Are these an LE, or just released sporadically? I dont need any further temptation, I am trying to cull
These have been extremely difficult to find at list price and a quick check of e-bay asking prices should convince you in an instant. They are stunning watches and wear well. I already have one, well actually I have a full set of the metals, so I am biased.Are these an LE, or just released sporadically? I dont need any further temptation, I am trying to cull
If you buy one and don't trash it you will have no problem getting your money back, either on here or on e-bay so a no risk gamble and they will be gone as quick as they appeared.
They are not a limited edition, but demand easily outstrips supply, so you have to buy whilst you can. We have waited 3 months for these to be available tonight. They might be gone in the morning.
Just buy one whilst you have the chance

Is this not the same watch? https://www.jurawatches.co.uk/produc...gmw-b5000d-1er
I'm sure somebody might have a code for a few quid off too. 200PHOTO50OFF used to cull £50 off for me but doesnt want to play for me tonight.
Thanks for that. Used the link to order, but ....
If you go directly into their webpage, that model doesn’t show in the G shock section ?
I’ve got email confirmation, but worried it maybe retracted ???? We will see ..
Back in stock here: https://g-shock.co.uk/product?v=GMW-B5000D-1ER
If I wasn't getting separated I'd be all over this
Link and code still works but watch is now on pre-order and sneakily with a £200 deposit, so the code gives you some discount off the £200 but not £50:(. It would be better to pay the full £450 asking price to get £50 off?
Currently in stock at H. Samuel online, and if you sign up to their newsletter you'll get a 10% discount code :)
Is this watch actually limited? There is a restock every week.
If you have American Express there’s a 5% back offer running in the rewards section of the app and you might be able to get an additional 5% through a cash back program, such as Quidcoalthough if using the 10% voucher code, it might not track or be paid out.

The one in the link isn’t a limited edition. Although it usually sells out very quickly when stock reappears.
The gold one and the dlc treated one are the limited editions which I believe have sold out.
All the H Samuel stock sold out, after they did the buy 1 get 1 half price offer. I think most was purchased by this seller.

But now fully stocked over at G-Shock over 30 units in stock but at the expensive rrp of £450.

The most flipped g shock on the market ..nice for the day then sacked the next ...
Use code AS12 at watchshop.com and get one for £396. They have a few in stock.
I picked one up from H Samuel, but unfortunately it’s too big due to the bracelet links sitting out slightly. It is a lovely watch though.
Surprised you couldn't get a good fit. With the micro adjustments on the clasp, you should of been able to find a perfect fit.
The problem isn’t the actual length of the bracelet, the first links beside the endlinks overhang my wrist as they don’t drop straight down. The resin strap of a regular square G-Shock doesn’t do this as it’s more flexible at that point.
The joys of small wrists!!
It is an odd design choice, the wearer needs a pretty specific wrist size or shape to get that perfect fit. There is a little flexibility but not a lot. Lucky for me it's perfect!
Agreed on bracelet it doesnt really suit many buyers due to the overhang but the negative lcd rubber strap version is spot on
They’re on the John Lewis website - currently out of stock but priced at £360 which is surely a bargain

Very tempted by one of these but £450 feels toppy for what is fundamentally not a limited edition G.
Does anyone know where I can find a bracelet for one of these? I have the resin strap version and massively prefer the negative display - just need a bracelet to put it on. All the usual suppliers seem either to deny such a thing exists or show it as "out of stock"...
It's a bit cheeky of Casio to list this (and other G-Shocks) as 'limited edition' without putting a number on it. IMO of course...
Does Casio list the GMW-B5000D-1 as limited edition somewhere?
Yea, on the Casio UK site, scroll down - https://g-shock.co.uk/collections/limited-edition
EDIT - do i need to get one before it gets discontinued somewhere down the line???
Baffles me why so many are being flipped. I have one and I can’t see myself selling it.

I've just seen one in an Ernest Jones window. To be honest I'm a bit peeved that this supposed limited edition is now in crappy high street windows. Mine is a keeper anyway, it was never going to be flipped in the madness that saw them go for 3 x RRP on eBay but just feels a bit less special now it can be picked up everywhere. No surprise I guess, I can't blame Casio for wringing every last sale out of it, it can't have been cheap to bring to market.
The rumours were that though it wasn't a limited edition like the Porter or the Goldie, it may still be a limited run, say a year. Personally I don't see that happening, this is such a hot model and must be a regular edition. I think production has now caught up with demand, you know the thing that normal businesses aspire to do.....
Preacher it was posted recently on another thread that Casio will be releasing a negative display on bracelet version soon. I have my eye on one but haven't seen them released yet.
Full metal black now available at G-Shock

Late reply to you - but on Seikopath's advice I contacted Casio UK and they're sorting one. Lead time about 6 weeks apparently but cheaper and easier than having a duplicate watch. :)
