    Any G-Shock lovers here?

    I don't see alot of G-Shock treads here? Any G-Shock fans? Show me some wristshots :lol:

    Re: Any G-Shock lovers here?

    Got one as a knock about watch (GW5600) and set my auto's against it. Useful watch to own but couldn't call myself a fan. If you do a search you'll find plenty of posts singing their praise.

    Try doing a Casio G Shock search. Plenty of fans here (a few misguided members hate them with a vengeance though :wink: )

    Wearing my GW5600 as I type this.

    I've had a GW-9200 for some time and I can vouch for it. It's a great watch for the money. It also has some ABC functions. Great watch.

    I was also interested in a Mudman but I don't know how it would sit on my wrist. How is it compared to the GW-9200?

    It's a bit bigger and thicker than the Riseman but very comfortable to wear.

    Agreed - greedy. Two are the same. This is what is there - G shock wise (the Protrek is a PRW2000):

    GW5600-1ER (X2 ) - a current model, freely available, and the default answer to anyones question as to what they should wear as a beater. Atomic and Solar.
    The Spike Lee DW5000-SL - A limited anniversary edition from a few years ago. Simple module, no fancy atomic/solar.
    A DW5600C - dating from 20 odd years ago
    A DW5600E - an up to date reincarnation of the original DW5600C

    Thanks.

    One can never be too skinny....or have too many Gs! :P

    Re: Any G-Shock lovers here?

    The Mudman, tougher than a roughty tough thing being tough.
    My only G but was told i couldn't be a proper WIS till i had owned one. I find its a bit smaller than i would like if im honest but does keep very accurate time to set my other watches by.

    I have 3 Atomic solars, Riseman, 5600 and a very nice negative display model I forget the name of. Like them all very much & use them to govern my Auto's.

    Only complaint would be the snooze alarm on The Riseman is an arse to deactivate.

    Oooh, a MIMB gulfman!!

    Re: Any G-Shock lovers here?

    Every WIS should have a G, IMO anyway :lol:

    Sadly the GX56 and Mudman have both since left my ownership but the 3000 makes a great beater and is also used to set my autos and handwinds to.

    Re: Any G-Shock lovers here?

    Yep.
    My Speedy is back in the box and my old DW5600 is living on my wrist again at the moment.
    Got a nice new 5600 in transit, due for delivery soon.
    Have far too many classic 80's and early 90's G's, love the look of them 8) .

    I recently got into G's.
    Heres my wee collection started a couple of months ago.











    As you can see the bug hit hard. Makes a nice change from the more conservative mechanical watches I've owned.

    Re: Any G-Shock lovers here?

    I love my multiband, solar G-Shock. I worry about all my other watches too much to wear them in certain circumstances. This is the only watch that I can actually call a "beater". Plus, it's always accurate - it's nice to have something to set all my other watches by. We'll see what lasts longer, the "tough solar" recharging, or the strap.
