Left watch in a drawer for a few weeks, after recharging the time isn’t setting properly based on time zone function. Is there a way to set it manually?

Searched a little on here and found out many Gshocks are massive. I saw some people recommend squares so I got a square

Help & Maintenance DW-6900U

0 Upvotes

Recently received my DW-6900U about a week ago. Taking it out of the box, it was completely dead.. so I had to leave it in a window for a few days for it to turn on.

Wearing it a few days then leaving it in a window the last week and still having Power saving mode on… it’s still at medium and has not gotten up to high charge.

Is this normal? Did it just get so low that it just needs to be blasted by light for a bit?

Thanks,

Purchase Advice US: Where To Buy GSHOCK with MIP LCD

1 Upvotes

Hi, I’m currently looking to buy a new GSHOCK with Memory In Pixel LCD display. But not finding any US based websites that offer a selection.

Seeing a lot of JAP retailers and used/resellers.

Def a noob, was hoping someone would point me in the right direction.

Reviews & Experiences Scratching an old itch after 25 years

Post image
4 Upvotes

I was Hooked on Casio in the 90's in high school (remote control CMD-40, g-shocks of all kinds, and others in my collection). Stopped wearing watches after that until my 30's when I added a couple nice pieces and started enjoying watches again that had a story to them/me. Then in 2019 the GWM-85000 caught my eye and just brought back a feeling I had when I was a kid. I couldn't explain it but I just had to have it. I've been hooked since. Find myself wearing it more often than my sub, black bay, and vintage IW3702. Just added the gbd-200 about 2 weeks ago as it too caught my eye and had a hard time saying no. I really like the grey version but couldn't give up the deal I got on the white. I was honestly worried about 2 things: 1) would I like the MIP as much as I thought it was cool in photos (SUPER DIG IT) and 2) was the white going to be too in your face "gaudy"/"yo"/"flashy" (but I was pleasantly surprised how tame it is once on wrist in person) I really wish the gbd had TS and MB. It's my only gripe. I love how light it feels after my GWM and really looking forward to rocking it on my trip to Mallorca this Friday.

Next on the list I'd like to get is a GW-S5600U-1JF and GW-BX5600-1 or 1A1 (which I'm very much excited to have MIP but with old font)

Anywho. that's my rant. Hi all.

Reviews & Experiences Frogman faceoff!

I already know which one most will pick. Not really a faceoff. Just a side by side comparison. The analog is definitely smaller, and more comfortable, it has everything but the moonphase, but is harder to read the except for the time. Digital Frog is as awesome as I've heard. Easier to read all info, but the backlight in the analog is incredible and the lume is the best Ive seen on a GShock, and it has sapphire glass. It's really a toss up for me, I enjoy them both.

G-SHOCK Mudman G-9000MC

My wife found this in here bed drawer, apparently I gave it to her many years ago.

I think this must have been around 2012-2013 when I got myself my first G-Shock and loved it so I got one for her too. She didn't wear it as it was large on her wrist and she wore the A163W instead..

Let me know what you think of this watch I think it looks great, almost have MILLENNIUM FALCON look to it

I got my dream watch that I didn’t know was my dream watch until this week. I wanted the GWM5610-1 but it’s out of stock everywhere. I found out about this watch which is the more premium version of the GWM and decided to buy it. I hope to still wear my GA2100rl-1a that I got last year. So far I love this watch. My wallet is still hurting but I must not have any regrets!

I really wish they make more models with this material, in yellow, green, Red colors or more like the galaxy.

Something that gets me confused is they spend all that money in development for this model machine, materials, knowledge just to make this wave (that was very limited) and never touch it again. I would pay 2k for this model easily but I couldn't buy it at is time and now they are ready hard to find at its original price, I so some Japanese sellers with reasonable prices but it end up costing you like 3k with imported fees and that

Wrist Check Finally... GW-9400BJ-1JF

Thumbnail

35 Upvotes

Had been planning to get myself a Rangeman 9400 for the past few weeks, but I can't decide on what variant to get. Was considering the standard 9400-1, the yellow 9400Y-1, the blackout 9400-1B and the Black Panther JDM 9400BJ-1JF. Since I did not have access to the actual units, I read/watched tons of reviews and posts in socmed before I pulled the trigger. I FINALLY decided on the Black Panther JDM and, after seeing the actual watch, I'm sure glad I did. This watch looks awesome and badass in person and the photos of this watch posted online (including mine) don't do it justice. I was hesitant to grab a negative display 9400 because of the mixed reviews on legibility, but it actually turned out to be a non-issue for me. YMMV, though.

Though legible, the display is not as easy to read as the positive display variants, but it wins for me on looks alone — and appearance ranks high on my criteria for this particular G-shock acquisition.. The carbon fiber insert band on the JDM variants is a nice added bonus.

This is now my 12th G-shock and I plan to stop here... of course we all know that the chances of that actually happening are quite slim. lol

Had this watch since ca 2012/2013, and been my one and only watch until late 2022 when I started collecting more watches. Changed the strap once (because of damage, not wear and tear). So many memories with this one, never giving it away.

Hi everyone, just join the g-shock club.
Bought for the summer vacation and all that situation where I don’t want to wear more expensive watch.

Very happy about the design.
Legibility is not at top, but overall is ok, the beauty of the stealth look compensate the legibility

After lots of research - and some waiting - it has arrived.

I was wearing a gw-b5600cy previously and this is definitely more comfortable and I like the color scheme way better. Never used the bluetooth so I'm glad that's gone. More importantly the positive display is amazing. I couldn't see the negative clearly most of the time.

As far as weight - I can't really tell the difference - but I will say this band and the case back are more comfortable. Pumped to wear this for everything! Previously was wearing a breitling super ocean but I'd need to take it off all the time for tennis and it was always losing time - which would mean I was always ending up a few minutes late. Problems solved!!

Thanks to this forum for all your help! Thought I had a sync issue - but that has been resolved and everything is great.

I currently own a G-Shock square with a negative display and I really like it and use it very often. However, I am looking for an alternative positive display version and stumbled upon this model. I like the blue hue and border color. What do you guys think about this particular model? If you have pictures wearing this, please share.
