That's a difficult watch to pull off but you've managed it! It looks much better on your wrist than in any of the press shots I've seen.
When the first MRG’s and MTG’s hit the market, I was amased that anyone could be interested in buying a Gshock at those prices. And even more so when the LE-versions came out, and at even sillier prices. And now, firmely attached to my wrist, the MRG-G2000HA-1adr. I was lucky to land this deal at a favorable price, but I had to spend over 20 times as much as my other G-shocks. Seeing the watch in the flesh for the first time yesterday made my jaw drop. It was really descrete and somewhat classy, and much more toned down than I was expecting. The delicate brownish/violet colour of the brachelet, case and dial and the subtle copper colored bezel and hands, really complements each other. The toned down blue seconds hand and city dial are also a nice contribution to the overall quality feel. The Bluetooth app also impresses me. Very nicely executed and with really practical uses. I really liked the possibility to micro adjust all hands and displays induvidually through the app. The watch was really hard to photograph and get the colours right. Here some recent images.

Superb!!! The 2000 series visually appeals more than the 1000 and I do find that 'gold' colours are more muted in real life.
I've been content with my Titanium B5000 - G shock DLC is really, really fantastic.
Looks quite good and nice pics as well.👍
How much was it if you don’t mind me asking?
I was going to write this in the Draft Thread, but seeing as Eddie has just locked it down ....
I'm sorry, but despite your superb photos, I think it looks hideous. Casio should stick to G-Shocks.
Indeed they were: https://g-shock.co.uk/mrg-g2000ha-1adr
Depreciation looks pretty horrific - used example (worn half a dozen times) currently on eBay.
Not a bad looker, though rather LOUD. NOT at that sort of price though!!!
Can't make up my mind about the texturing on the Bezel & bracelet. Kind of looks interesting, but also like its suffered an acid attack!
So much for me hoping that you would not like it...
On a more serious note, bloody awesome!
Looks excellent, will be buying one......if I win the lotto tonight.
Great buy👍
Bloody awesome.
Reminds me of hammered cymbals.
Bargain. Well done OP. I've been in to the store to admire one a couple of times. 6.5k is a bit steep but that's a great buy

Im so pleased with my recent purchase, so I bought myself another MRG. I needed one for daily USE as well. £850 for a lightly used MRG-G1000B-1a. Hope thats in bargain territory AS well. Images will follow.

Both bargains!!!
Looks like a keeper.
I find this, and the sales post, very confusing. I've also just realised that the first photo makes a lie of the statement that I've quoted. Unless the OP is describing the condition that it was sold to him.
So, who knows? It's good to know that my titanium 5000 isn't the maddest G-Shock on here. Nice photos, mind.
An unscrupulous person could (if they wished) open up a bogus sales post advertising this type of watch for - lets say £10k, then add a reply stating that the watch has been sold at the asking price in record time.
The quoted post can be used later as documented evidence that the resale value of the watch is very healthy.
Yes, top secret stuff.
It all makes sense now. There is a "market place called Finn.no."
That explains it all....
I have highlighted the parts which apply to your sales post.
The 10% dealer fee for members who sell at a profit is £1,000 on a £10,000 watch sale - your £10 donation is below par for a self declared profiteer.
The smoke & mirrors approach may backfire on you if you can not be honest.
Enjoy your undisclosed profit - at the expense of the forum fundraiser.

Only just seen the sales post, couldn't figure out if it was a joke or not. Bizarre reading to say the least.
