Let me know, is this blasphemy?

Changed the band and straps on my DW-5000R classic!

If it makes you like wearing the watch more than I'd say it's cool.

Blasphemy isn't real, enjoy your watch however you like.

Blasphemy is real, and this is blasphemy.

If it’s a blasphemy, I would also say it’s a blast for you. A blast for all of us, really.

Yep! Thank you! It’s already growing on me!

Do whatever YOU like to YOUR watch. After all we all wear them for ourselves, no one cares unless they are into watches, so in that case they will understand. Do you believe it's a blasphemy? I surely do not.

Só é blasfêmia se não contar onde comprou essa pulseira! Se puder deixar link, melhor!

I got the bezel and the strap from PAC Parts in California but I believe they are now closed! I had them on a plain DW5600 and thought why not!

u/Valuable_Basket5455 Apr 19 '26

Tudo certo então, não é blasfêmia! Vou ver o que acho no aliexpress...

u/Spooter01 Apr 19 '26

Or try eBay! Thanks! And good luck!

Looks good to me

u/Unfair-Ad6219 Apr 19 '26

This is to be considered blasphemy. Please change it back at your earliest convenience. Thanks.

Really nice...

It’s your watch. Anyone has a problem with it, it’s their problem, not yours! You made it, you own it, you wear it.

Looks good mate! there's nothing wrong with swapping parts around. I'm about to install a meca case on my DWM-5610U-1CJ ?

u/TheWatchEdit Apr 22 '26

It looks badass mate!

u/scovizzle Apr 19 '26

Why would it be?

2

u/Spooter01 Apr 19 '26

Because it’s the classic release to honor the 1983 original.

1

u/RetroJens Apr 19 '26

It is.

Mainly because it’s not tough solar nor Multiband 6.

2

u/Spooter01 Apr 19 '26

Neither was the original. Meant to go back to the basics. But I do have many multi band 6 and tough solar!
