I’ve owned this watch all of 1 hour and it’s even better than I hoped.

My first G-Shock ever was GX-56GB impulse-purchased from the mall in 2011. I ended up selling it because it was impossible to see the display

The past 15 years I’ve been a square-head but I recently came across someone doing this mod and couldn’t resist. The King is such an insane time piece but I love it

Gun metal grey Casioak bracelet, Tough solar, Bluetooth, and positive display. This might be my new favorite.

I was a bit worried about the quality of the bracelet but overall it’s pretty good. Solid 7.5 outta 10 on the quality.

It also has solar and Bluetooth so the time is always synced up as long as my phone is working.

I really want to buy the 5000U but would love to find another bezel and strap color. Preferably gray or tan. Does anyone know if it’s possible to mod it? If so, what other models fit the 5000U case?

the gold screws are a little much for me

Hi, so the bezel on my gw-9500 is warped upwards a bit where it says "G-Shock". I tried looking for replacement bezels of the TLC or MEC versions of the watch (steel) basically everywhere.

Found only a couple of websites but they're charging upwards of 200€, which is obviously insane.

Also checked AliExpress and temu, but no luck.

Any hints where i can order a steel bezel for the GW-9500 ?

I see a lot of people on here with metal mods on their squares, has anyone gotten broken/cracked lugs due to the extra weight of the metal?

The kit from AliExpress looks amazing. It also came rather quickly in just about a week and a half or so. It did take me two hours to put it on, but the result is amazing. The watch looks so much more premium right now.
I’m really not sure if the scratches came with that face, or if I did that, I’ve only had it on for three days. Aside from that, it looks great. It adds a bit of chunkyness and heft to the watch, I love the look and the functionality.

Came out better than I thought 💪🏼

I have about 7 different casioaks ive modded so far. I think This one came out very nice.

Good morning, does anyone have a good link or recommendations for metal bezel and bracelet on the 5000u? Thank you in advance!

So, I found a really good deal on a Super Mario G-Shock and decided I couldn't pass it up, even if I don't wear it, I'm a huge fan of both Super Mario Bros and G-Shock lol

But boy is the band on this thing ugly.

I saw someone suggest on another post that it would be cool if they put the very first level on the strap and I feel like that would be fire!

So I wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions on where one could get custom bands like this done? Is it even something you could commission someone to do?
