redwatch Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 I am not really sure what it is about this particular G-Shock that I like so much, but I think it's a pretty damn cool looking watch. Comments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InDenial Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 I like the bold numbers and markings as well as the unique arrow for the day indicator. I like too how it's solar powered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rrari1 Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 I love G shocks. I have a fairly similar one to that, and it always gets comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwatch Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) I ordered the exact watch from ebay. There is a huge thread on watchuseek about these 4000s. They have them at Macy's. The hour makers are set in 3D and look nice. The fact that there are no lcd's, all white markers, and steel band makes it pretty classy, in a futuristic way. Besides it is solar (no issue of breaking water seal during battery change), and atomic time sync. Looks high quality (if Swiss were to make half as good as this they will be pricing it through the roof). Just got tired af mechanical watches never showing exact time, and needing constant intervention. Edited July 13, 2012 by gwatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redwatch Posted July 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 Nice! Getting ready for the zombie apocalypse? Haha Well at least if my brains get eaten and I become one of the walking dead my watch will still tick as long as its exposed to some light periodically.

redwatch Posted July 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 speaking of light, does the whole dial illuminate or is it just a light from the top? It's funny that you should ask that actually as I was just thinking about this earlier this evening. I think one of my favorite features is the complete and total lack of any kind of light. No button to turn on the "Indiglo" or the "Illuminator" lights. It actually has lumed hands, lumed indices and the 12, 6 & 9 are lumed as well. Not the best lume by any means, but there is definitely lume there. Not my picture, but this should give you an idea: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
