    The screws they sent you are for the resin cased G-Shock squares. The screws on the metal cased G-Shock squares like yours have a different thread pattern. Screws for plastic have coarser thread. Screws for metal have a fine thread, machine screw pattern. Also, I wouldn't open the watch up to switch buttons or screens. Right now, the actual watch is still intact. No need to compromise it with aftermarket parts. Very nice video though and your reactions are funny as hell.

    Just watching this vid, u know Bru, I reckon the std fitment on the titanium case screws stick out too - so the black included screws just mimic that. Nice vid man. You've increased the value and weight of your watch - it looks way nicer than standard. Plus, you are not setting out to fool anybody. Good choice ;)

    Did you order the right model? These kits are made for the regular 5600 and the metal case back models like the gmw5000. The ones that are made for your model should come with a red plastic spacer to keep it from moving around, just like in the metal g models. That case you have has the red bits taped in and it makes me wonder if it’s designed to fit the regular 5600s that don’t use that spacer, hence why they’re taped in to mimic that look.

    • @peterlee2960
      @peterlee2960 Рік тому +1

      If there is a red plastic spacer coming together with the case, then it is an old version. New version already modified the size which is totally fit and no need to have any spacer.

  • @peterlee2960
    @peterlee2960 Рік тому +1

    I think the wrong model case had been ordered. For these cases, there are three sizes to select, that is 5600mm 5610mm and 5000mm. I also got a GW-5000 and modified to a steel case with no problem at all. I had selected the 5000mm size. From the bracelet, I could tell it was not for GW-5000. Because my steel bracelet for the side touching the round case was also roundly in match. The case was tough and no loosely at all.

    • @timzusa
      @timzusa  Рік тому

      Possibly. It’s weird how it fits and wears fine now.

      so you recommend take the 5610 for you GW-5000? I also got a GD-5000U and currently in doubt if I should order 5000 or 5610 series bracelet because m afraid the 5000 in this case is for GWD-5000 metal models and above and not the standard resin GD-5000U (300$) version. Can you clarify which one is likely the best option to order?

    So if that one comes with just red tape on the inside as faux "fine resin," then doesn't this mod compromise the g-shock-ability of the modded watch? Particularly when it is a metal-cased square to start with? By removing the resin bezel, you just took away a BIG portion of its ability to absorb shock. Didn't you?
    If the old ones actually came with the resin interior, but they've now adjusted the size to not need it, then I'd say the new ones are worse.
