    Any gshock watch with illuminated hands you can recommend?

    • WatchNerd on 09/09/2017 - 14:58
      +2

      That's very specific, and I don't know if they even do that. Besides Casio aren't known for awesome lume anyway.
      You're better of getting a digital G-Shock with EL backlight.

      • [Deactivated] on 09/09/2017 - 15:01

        The ana Digi g shocks that I have seen have a light at the bottom (6 o clock) and that to me isn't very appealing.

        Do the digital g-shocks light up the whole face?

        • WatchNerd on 09/09/2017 - 15:05
          +1

          Yes I don't know why they still use that old school light. I guess on Ana/Digi models it works to a degree.
          If you look for electro-luminescent backlight, then that lights up the whole face.

          Also just be aware the more you use the light on a watch, then the sooner you will have to change the battery.

        • Fullhalter on 10/09/2017 - 12:04

          The new GA-800 series have double LED, face led and backlight.

          I think tge GWG Mudmasters do that as well, but at a cost.

    These are the two I often see recommended on Reddit.

        • WatchNerd on 09/09/2017 - 15:18
          +3

          Same price as the link above to my deal post with the $100 eBay voucher.
          It doesn't have hand winding or hacking like this Invicta, but the build quality more than makes up for that.

          Nice one, like the band too, looks adjustable unlike mine, had to pay a jeweller to remove a couple of links who then scratched it.

          Amazon have yours for AUD$270 shipped, would buy it if mine wasn't fixable and I wasn't so attached to it.

        Great choice! When I am able to, my grail is to buy a SKX013 (the 007's smaller brother).

          @CheapCoffee: Same! Currently rocking a Seiko 5 snk809 and a casio w800h as a beater watch.

          I have the skmei in transit. I'd like to also look at tisell in the future as a dress Bauhaus watch too. It's under 39mm, sapphire glass, miyota auto, Korea made and has heat treated blue hands unlike the cheaper Chinese rider/Rodina.

          The choices are a bit limited in the budget range for small wristed people I'm afraid. Vintage would be great but I haven't the time to properly research sadly.

      I bought an Invicta divers with the N35A movement 3 months ago …. was told some are good , some are bad ……. has only lost 1 minute over 2 months ….. maybe I was lucky, but great value watch and wear it now instead of my Omega.

      Only downside is the luninesence is weak in the dark.

      Although not sapphire, there are no scratches on the glass or cyclops so far ….

      If you get one, also order a band pin tool off ebay …. it's less hassle and cheaper than going to a jeweller for band adjustments.

    Thanks WatchNerd, you nerdy timekeeper you.

    After over 23 years of impeccable service my Seiko Kinetic needs a new battery.

    Took it to Prouds who sent it to Seiko and they wanted to charge $220.

    Sent it straight to Seiko myself and for a new battery and pressure test inc. shipping will cost $120.

    Jewellers are such a rip-off.

    • [Deactivated] on 09/09/2017 - 16:52

      That's because they're not Jewellers - they're retailers.

      • Scab on 09/09/2017 - 16:56
        +3

        They call themselves "Prouds The Jewellers" and they employ jewellers, that makes them jewellers.

        And jewellers can and do sell things, so I guess most jewellers would also be retailers.

        It's like chickens, you can call them chooks, chickens, hens or roosters, they're all really just birds.

          Yeah ok, jewellers, but they're not the classic watchmaker outfit, and obviously not set up for dealing with watches.
          If they were they would have the gear and skill set to change your battery, it seems to me.

          @AngryChicken:

          For some reason nobody but Seiko can do it.

          Took it to 3 different stores and a couple of "jewellers" (ones who actually make things), as well as one of those minute man kiosk things and every one said only Seiko as soon as they saw it.

          I bought it in 1994, it originally came with a capacitor and the replacement is a battery now.

          No idea why only Seiko can do it.

          @AngryChicken:

          Yeah but I don't think there's anything difficult about it as there's "how to" guides online and it looks like a straight replacement.

          I thought any place would be able to do it but seems I was wrong.

          Anyway, waiting for it to come back from Seiko, hope the battery lasts as long as the original capacitor but I somehow doubt it.

          Really love this watch and it looks much better in real life than in the photo.

          In 24 years I've had it it's never missed a beat until now.

          might be that it's soldered in, plus not a part they keep due to low demand …. unlike normal batteries people replace every 2-3 years.

    I am looking for an auto movement watch to replace my 1980s Citizen Quartz diver as its battery has gone again. A couple of the Amazon reviews suggest this watch is not as waterproof as advertised which is a deal breaker for me as I want to wear it surfing a few times per week.

    What do you think about the waterproofness of this watch or any comparable alternatives with a focus on them being 100% waterproof and hardy to a few hundred rinsings in the surf?

      6.The time error of watch
      Watch the operation error including static operation (not wear) and dynamic operation error (wear). Static error is watch movement under the normal operation of the error, associated with the quality of the movement itself, are also associated with wear man's activities. Due to different personal activity, the dynamic error of the watch is not the same. But why quartz watch is mechanical watch accurate? This is because the quartz watch the use of high frequency of 32768 Hz, quartz oscillator and ordinary mechanical watch fast swing frequency of 3 Hz, both differ 10000 times. Oscillator frequency is higher, the greater the stability of the oscillation, the stronger anti-interference ability, walk ShiYue accurately, thus quartz watch than mechanical accuracy. In addition, the mechanical watch because of the structure itself, subject to the effect of gravity, in a horizontal position and vertical position offset and produce a poor; Spring from tightening to relax, unbalanced moment, also can affect walking; So mechanical watch when precision is hard to compared with quartz watch.

      Apart from the ShiYue reference, i think i'm on the way to understanding that…
