My two last G-Shock purchases!

The vintage Casio Seaman (NOS)

The Atomic Rangeman

**barryw** · 28th March 2015, 13:58

Thought I'd post this question for all you GShock experts, looking to purchase a classic square shaped 56xx series but am totally confused as there's so many models.
I would like the normal display, not negative type and to be able to fit a bracelet in future.Years ago I seem to remember the 5600, is solar and atomic the way to go now?
Thanks.

You want a gwm 5610 - solar atomic 'normal' display - and you can easily fit the composite bracelet. All round the best everyday model - slim and discrete but tough and doesn't lack any feature you're likely to want.

Thanks RobDad

Last place you would think to look for a 5600 - http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...uctInformation

Thanks for this post. Just picked up my first G-shock, a GW-M5610. I've been eyeing up a classic square cased one for a while. Clicked through your link and noticed there was a 20% off code available at the moment, which sealed the deal!

**Muska** · 4th April 2015, 17:37

Unfortunately I got stung by customs buying this but it was worth it to have the Carbon Fiber strap.

All these frogs are making me want to try one though!

Glad to be of help! 20% off? How did you manage that please?

Overlooked it Chris. Huge congrats on your 2 new arrivals. Getting the vintage Seaman NOS is simply awesome. Pretty rare bird and the pristine condition is the icing on the cake. Ranger an excellent choice as well. Old meets new. Well done :-)

**gshort67** · 28th March 2015, 14:14

Awesomeness :-) First one on TZ. Huge congrats Chris :-) Its a fabulous pick! Not too many around at the moment - still early days as the GW 8250CR just few weeks on the market. Wear it with pride :-) :-)

Thanks Tom! The Frogman is remarkably comfortable on the wrist too for being quite a large watch!
Oh dear, I fear G-Shocks may be addictive!

Yeah the whole Frogman GF 8250 series is pretty comfortable:-) and yes no looking back now as you got hooked already :-) ;-) The Froggy's are definitely addictive.

Edit : my bad it's GF-8250CM ( model number )

**Essexman** · 1st April 2015, 08:15

Congratulations on the new G shock chrisrennie44, that's really good looking, and good on deepsea_dweller for helping out, top man!

**MakeColdplayHistory** · 1st April 2015, 08:18

I have to operate a strict 'one in, one out' policy for G-Shocks or things would get out of hand. Topics like this don't help either.

This one is about to be boxed up and posted. In fact, I guess it's not mine any longer as I received payment about an hour ago.

My wallet has been saved by the lack of atomic / wave ceptor on this one. It was damn close though, phew. Looks fantastic, enjoy it. Such a great colour combo.

**hobsong1** · 2nd April 2015, 16:21

Now that i've semi retired i no longer wear Dress /suit watches so i decided to try a few -Shocks and bought this one which does everything i need and is super comfortable for me now that i always seem to be in casual clothes.

**shalako** · 2nd April 2015, 17:42

Really liking this one, must have features such as solar and multi band ...... and a cool compass too.

Quite possibly my next G-Shock purchase.

I love how the countdown timer has the hands count down backwards, nice touch!

Good old EBay! I did have a WTB up for a Frog, but to no avail!
Think I would like another though! Anyone? Lol.

**deepsea_dweller** · 2nd April 2015, 03:14

Thank you Essexman and Hammond :-) Very small thing as chrisrennie44 did all the hard work. Glad if can help a bit and G Shockers are helping & supporting each other:-) :-) Here my choice for today :-)

**deepsea_dweller** · 2nd April 2015, 14:25

Evening swap. Already in holiday mood :-)

**hobsong1** · 2nd April 2015, 18:12

It's the Gulfmaster, lovely blue fixed bezel is a nice contrast.

**ETCHY** · 2nd April 2015, 18:35

Thanks for that.

Yes it's stunning!

Cheers

It is lovely. I see there is a black bezel version as well.

The specs say it is 44mm in diameter which is quite modest in G-Shock terms. How does it wear?
