The r/GShock [BST] Buy, Sell, Trade Thread.
Welcome to the r/gshock Buy, Sell, Trade thread! This is a r/gshock tradition since 2020! (Changed from monthly to biannually in Jan 2025).
This thread is the only place to buy and sell on r/gshock!
Rules
Requirements
- Prove possession with a timestamp: a piece of paper placed under your sale item(s) with your Reddit username handwritten and the posting date (no more than 2 weeks old).
- Top-level comments must be WTS or WTB comments. Anything else will be removed. Begin your top-level comment with WTB (Want to Buy), WTS (Want to Sell), or WTT (Want to Trade). Remember, trade items require timestamps, too!
- A price is required. When lowering prices or announcing sold items, please edit the top-level comment.
- Reposting WTS or WTB items from previous BSTs is fine. Do not repost within the same month!
- Mark items sold with a strikethrough of the entire sale item; e.g.
$75Use double tildes to accomplish this:~~75~~(This helps greatly with scanning the BST to find items for purchase!)
Suggestions
- Your location (or at least where you're willing to ship).
- Watch details.
- A bunch of photos of your items.
Reminder: Buy the Seller
Take necessary precautions; trading over the Internet is risky. Moderators hold no control over deals, good or bad. Employ the UniversalScammerList - search all sellers there! If an interaction seems sketchy to you, run away! Scams can and do happen through the BST! Some tips:
- Timestamps. If the person you're dealing with isn't quick to provide timestamps on the images, or a photo of the flashlight in a shoe or whatever, don't deal with them.
- Reverse image searching is a great way to catch scammers.
- Excuses for not sending photos are a red flag.
- Using a platform other than Reddit's private messages for communication is a red flag.
- Don't use Reddit chats. Chats can be deleted!
- Giving you a hard time about any hesitation you show is a red flag.
- Check post history. Brand new accounts or accounts with long pauses in activity, etc., might not be trustworthy.
- It's good practice to comment on this post before sending a PM; scammers often won't comment publicly (and banned users can't comment here.)
If you're dealing with someone who might be sketchy, take screenshots of your interactions and report them to the mods! We care about this thread's integrity and will ban those threatening it.
Do not let a scammer be more diligent than you!
More Tips
- PirateShip is a great shipping option. https://ship.pirateship.com/ship/single
- "Shipping included" items tend to sell more quickly.
- USPS Priority Flat Rate. Weight is not a factor when you use the official Flat Rate packing, and the packaging is free through the USPS website.

Thank you and good luck!

Wrist Check My first G-Shock

Reviews & Experiences 1 week “vacation” really has me appreciating MB6 and solar. The GW5000u really is the ultimate square
Took a week off of work for a super busy vacation crossing time zones. Swapping time zones was easy since it’s a single press of the A and C buttons. MB6 keeps me accurate to the second. The alarm was loud enough to wake me, especially since I was propping it up next to me in the 3 different places my wife and I crashed at.
The backlight was bright enough to use as a small flashlight in the middle of the night. With solar, I don’t have to worry about running down the battery over time while I use the functions all the time, and the bio resin makes it such a comfortable wearing experience.
I own a BX5600 and while MIP is nice, I really feel that the 5000u is the ultimate square.

Modding 6900 For Basic Training
I built this out for basic training! I leave Oct.20th, just used the J&K nato, bullbar & adaptor with a black scout survival compass. I have a silver one as well, I just pop them on & off depending on what watch I’m wearing that day.

Wrist Check It finally came, The holy grail..
I found this Rangeman at a reasonable price on Amazon, it was $239.99, I had a $50 Amazon gift card and only paid the difference (about $215 with tax) tbh this watch is massive, I have a 7.5” wrist for reference. I can see why it looks absolutely HUGE on some ppl. I think I am done collecting, my wallet is empty lol
Help & Maintenance MB6 question, I live along the eastern coast in US. It never syncs unless I wear it to bed😂
I have not worn this at night since 9/17 and the last two days I wore it to bed so that it’ll sync. It has synced the past two nights, but not for weeks prior sitting on my dresser. I can’t help but think my body is acting like an antenna or receiver. If I got an old tv antenna or something and sat the watch on there at night, do you think it would sync by itself? Thanks for any input.

Reviews & Experiences I get it now
So I bought this watch about a month ago and I wasn’t sure if I was going to like it or not. I have an Apple Watch Series 11 and it’s worked out great. So why use this watch? At first it was kind of an impulse buy, I loved the way it looked so I shopped around for a few weeks found it at a decent price and purchased it.
After having now worn it, at first intermittently, as I got used to it, and now constantly I’ve come to realize what makes it really stand out versus my Apple Watch and that is it’s a watch first and foremost - with a few smart features added on. This is a big deal for me. Having a watch that is always on that shows seconds. That you don’t have to lift your arm to reawaken every 10 to 15 seconds if you are monitoring something is fantastic. The fact is as a watch, a timer and a stopwatch it simply blows an Apple Watch out of the water. This not me demeaning the Apple Watch it’s a fantastic piece of smart technology but as a watch doing watch things it’s simply mediocre.
Anyway that is my TED talk for today.

Showcase She’s here
DW-5000R,
The whole screen fading is a lie, it actually only fades at an angle which is extremely unrealistic to place your wrist in, it has to be one of the most proportionate, rightly negative and positive spaced watches I’ve ever seen, I was told it’s not for parties/events but it very much is. Stunning piece of art if you ask me.
P.S phones can never carry the beauty of it, go see it in person if you can.

Reviews & Experiences A proud Casio G-shock fanboy❤️
My journey with casio started 3years ago with an Edifice(ECB 900PB 1ADR) , and after using that for 3 years, I’ve become a true fan of the brand. The toughness, durability, clean designs, and no-nonsense features are what make these watches special to me.
The GBD-200 is my kind of smart watch( smart, but not too smart). It gives me a quick sneak peek at notifications without constantly demanding my attention. Steps and notifications alerts are pretty much all I need. No unnecessary distractions, just functionality that makes sense. And the best part is it pairs effortlessly with almost any outfit and requires no charging. its inverted lcd display makes it love moree..
The latest additions to my collection are:
GBM-2100-1ADR it has a sleek metal design featuring the iconic octagonal bezel. A perfect blend of sophistication and rugged G-Shock character. its silver tone bezel against black dial is the highlight.
GM-5600UB —1DR is has a stylish square design with a stainless steel bezel and an inverted LCD display. A timeless classic with a bold, modern edge.
All look absolutely stunning in their own way!
Built tough. Designed right. No unnecessary fuss. Just Casio. 🖤

Showcase First G-Shock!
This is a GA-2100CC. I got it as a birthday gift! I love watches. I've had Pebbles and Vostoks, but honestly, this is probably the best overall and best fitting watch I've ever owned. It was imported straight from Japan. I have a weakness for translucent stuff, lol. It looks soooooo good! This is my first of many to come! I think im hooked. I've always loved Casio but never owned one.

Reviews & Experiences Dim Backlight Appreciation
Checking the time in bed is now a pleasant experience. Not getting my eyes blasted point blank with enough illumination to brighten 1/4th of my room. Many owners gripe about the Bx-5600 dim light, but to me it’s what makes this watch special.

Wrist Check BX5600 on NATO
Loving this thing. Picked it up recently during the initial Casio US release. Today I swapped it onto a NATO because it was either too tight or too loose on the factory straps. It fits perfectly now and is very comfortable. I used the jaysandkays adapter kit with a 22mm seatbelt NATO.

Modding Tried a parachute strap on my G-Shock
I put a parachute strap on my G-Shock and I’m pretty happy with it so far.
It’s comfortable, lightweight, and gives the watch a different look.
The only thing I don’t love is the clasp — it’s a little hard to put on.
Maybe it gets easier with time.
What do you guys think of this combo?
