• CASIO G-SHOCK GW 9400 ...
So what have I done again, well apart from having the printed lines removed from the LCD glass, I've now added even stronger lume that glows way longer and stronger, it's so strong it overwhelms my SEIKO Tuna SUN021!
I also show you some other luminous ideas that could end up with you glowing up your house LML :-P

The Mad Scientist strikes again. This is genuinely impressive. Casio do need to get a UV backlight integrated, I've been thinking exactly the same for years and this proves how practically useful it would be. Imagine being able to change settings in the dark etc... Game changer. Cheers!
I've been called the Doc Brown of G-Shocks LML :-P
The UV backlight would be amazing and with that new brighter lume it's just insane... was up to 2am playing with the GW-9400 in total darkness... am wondering what the negative side would look like :))
CASIO needs to listen, think this could be the one that makes them stand out... or should that be makes them glow above the rest :)
HaPpY Weekend my friend and thanks for passing by :)
@@WatchUP69MrRangeman COULD U DO THIS WITH T 100 TRITIUM AND IF SO HOW MUCH WOULD U CHARGE??? SERIOUS INQUIRY.
This is the greatest video I have seen in my life!
Imagine those leds working for 3 sec.
Don't use red...use white! Find uv ones...black light!
OMG!
Lume is insane!
I had so much fun watching this!
I'm already looking for UV micro lights :)
It was amazing to film this video, and I was just so shocked how bright those powders are... Was up till 2am still messing around with my GW-9400 in the dark, you can't imagine how much easier it is with a luminous dial now for setting things on the watch :)
Cheers for the feedback my friend, and HaPpY Weekend too :))
That turned out awesome! I can only imagine how hard this would be to film the whole process. Well done 👏👏
I'm glad you noticed what was involved behind the scenes, it was a fun but also very busy... I had bits everywhere and tiny bits too, including Blitzzz on my fingerdoms LML :-P Can't believe I lost those two springs, but they are so tiny I didn't even try to look for them :-P
The end result left me up till 2am playing in the dark resetting the Rangeman, you can't imagine how odd that felt LML :-P
Cheers for the feedback and support... HaPpY Weekend my dear friend :)
You’re awesome mate, absolutely awesome!
Appsoluty amazing yes the lum is beautiful 👍
Cheers buddy... different hey, but for me, those lines removed makes the biggest difference :))
Wow! Just bonkers mate! Ubercoool video!
Cheers buddy... very super cool, that green lume was charging the solar and recharging the SEIKO LML :-P
HaPpY glowing Weekend my friend and thanks for the support :)
I'll just admire you work and skip mods like this on my Rangeman LOL. I can handle case changes though. Good stuff sir!
Great video! Thanks for it! Keep the good modding vibes burning!
I'm so pleased many are liking my content with videos like this... I like to keep the channel interesting and wanting everyone thinking what will be the next video be about,... of course I will review watches, but random watch stuff is more me :)
Cheers for the support my friend, and HaPpY Weekend :)
Cool vid! Casio needs to listen to this idea, I wouldn't mind paying more for tgis feature. Someone should forward this to their R&D dept pronto!
I've never understood why digital watches don't have a passive lume dial and vice versa, why so few analogue quartz watches have LEDs or EL backlights. The LED/EL is obviously superior in that it doesn't need to be charged, so no matter what you'll be able to read the time. However passive lume is great and would save on the battery, why not do both whenever possible? The only non timex analogue watch w/ LED backlight that I know of off the top of my head is a Casio Oceanus that's rather expensive.
wow epic costum watch ! Luminous LCD in addition to having had this great idea, you made it happen . bravo
The idea has come to life... am trying to find ways to get the UV light inside, now that'll make the difference :)
Cheers for passing my friend... HaPpY Weekend :)
Just wow! Now Batman is all set to go.
Never imagine Casio G-Shock can stand a chance to win Seiko in a lume battle.
I know, that green lume is mental strong... you really need to see it for real, as I had to tame the contrast and exposure so many times. Lasts really long with strength.... I've got some more ideas with regards to lume and UV, but not with watches :-P
Batman is all glow :))
That’s some KILLA LUME my friend.The most EPIC lume video ever.That ROCKS🤘🏻yeah CASIO listen.
Yeah, the ending was nuts with all those Columbian bags of lume LML :-P I was going to make it more of a feature, but don't want this channel to be removed! Cheers for the feedback, the support and all the other lovelies... seen you have a few videos I need to catch up on :)))) Cheers to a bright weekend :)
Thanks again for the wonderful video mate!
Thank you for the feedback as always... was really fun to make, but also very busy with all those parts in my lightbox... am pleased it worked, but will make the LED work again, but want UV LED's the most :))
Your excitement is magnificent 😂 Brilliant video no need to apologise... It's great to see the good, bad and ugly! And it turned out... (you have to watch the video if you are reading this...) anyway. That orange is amazing, looks like lava. Be interesting to see a few different colours on the different segments of the dial?
Superb idea with the UV light!! CASIO LISTEN UP!!
It was a joy to make this video, I've never had luminous powder like it, and I had to adjust the camera to compensate for the brightness would you believe LML :-P
It really works well, and it would be interesting if I can find UV micro bulbs :))
Cheers for the feedback my good friend, and catch up next week :))
@@WatchUP69MrRangeman I'm looking forward to checking it out next week! :))) And I might have a useful lighting system for you to use while working with it!? 🎁
I just saw your comment now and I cannot believe that I had suggested the same thing to Sir L. Uminous on another platform. 😄
@@Daud76 Great minds...! :) Let's see what HRH has to say about it! 😁
Let the numinous wars begin!
This is just amazing!!! Thanks for the content my friend really amazing
Cheers for the feedback my friend... am making content that I enjoy, and so it's nice also to have like minded viewers that enjoy just as much... HaPpY Weekend and cheers again :)
Just did this mod.. Came out great.
Amazing change....i wish Casio listen to you! Good job!!
CASIO really does need to tune into this one... I'm hunting for UV LED's to put inside, I really want it to glow every time I turn the backlight on... and the lume is so bright it could charge the solar LML :-P
Cheers for the feedback :)
@@WatchUP69MrRangeman wow,fantastic!!
Amazing work mate. I never knew lume could work so well on digital watches. I appreciate the bravery you have put in while disassembling a G-Shock most would keep original.
My aim was to remove those line on the display, now I believe that's a first... lume on a digital has been done before, but not using this crazy amount of lume... am looking at UV inside the Rangeman, possibly using optic-fibre :))))))))))
Cheers for the support my good friend, and wish you a jolly good fine weekend too :)
@@WatchUP69MrRangeman happy weekend mate and good luck finding the backlight springs so you can fit the UV light in the Rangeman.
That is some serious retinal blasting lume! 😵💫
Isn't it just... now I just need to find a very powerful UV bulb to fit inside... which isn't easy, unless you run a huge battery, but maybe for the future, Casio will address the backlighting so it's continuous :))
Cheers!
..and so I am not disappointed in part two! That lime lume is insanely bright. So many other colours at your disposal too. I am super impressed! Great video as always, my friend! 😉
The camera had to be tamed otherwise it would be a washout of light... damn, really bright and long lasting... very odd playing with the Rangeman in total darkness without using the backlight (which is busted) but am looking for UV LED's :))
Cheers for the support and for the feedback :)
@@WatchUP69MrRangeman My sincere pleasure, my friend. Honestly, I have only seen a glow that bright dripping from an injured Predator. 😉
@@Daud76 LML now that would make a special effect... was so tempted to throw the powder all over the lightbox like a heavy metal trashing guitar stage moment LML :-P
Think it'll be ok during the day, but at night I couldn't find any excuses to save me LML :-P
@@WatchUP69MrRangeman Your lightbox would certainly be blinding light with an overdose of that powder! 🤭
Blindingly Great Video.. Kid in a Candy Store.. Love it! I'm glowing with jealousy hahahah ... Thanks MrR ;)
Kid on crack luminous candy for sure LML :-P It was an experience to light those bags up, and my fingerdoms glowing after LML :-P
So pleased so many enjoy this kind of content instead of showing a new watch... have many ideas, but also have many watches to share from my collection... got some amazing watches coming soon that are rare to find :)
HaPpY Weekend :)
Great video, seems that casio has to shop at Nigel's for some lume powder for their watches!!! Just imagine them doing so,that probably boosts their sales by a million!!
I'm liking tritium gas tubes too... combo of them both would be really exciting, maybe I will do it... tritium gas Rangeman :))
True genius
particularly i wouldn't do that with mine rangeman.I prefer the backlight function.Greetings from Brazil!!!
I use killa and promoted Him in my lume video but I didn’t get any extra stuff !!
Incredible work man, that was super cool!
Cheers buddy, still playing with it so could be a part 3 :)
Have subbed your channel for support :)
WatchUP69 Mr Rangeman Appreciate it my man!
@@SoCalWatchReviews I try and support us smaller channels the best I can, will have a look at yours once I grab a moment, cheers :)
WatchUP69 Mr Rangeman Thank you!
Cool video. I prefer Casios as they are, but good job. The GW 9400 Rangeman. Still, the best G-Shock ever made.
I really wanted to know what the GW-9400 would be like without those lines on the display, and then it rolled from there thinking I was the first, but found a video from 2017 that showed a digital watch with lume, but now my lume is insane with glow :))
Cheers for the feedback and wish you a grand weekend too my friend :))
Can’t wait for Part III The Return of Mr Rangeman
You should be able to see part 3 live in sky when it happens LML :-P
WatchUP69 Mr Rangeman I’m guessing you’ll be doing a vid on your birthday watch? 😂😂
A Quad Like, despite the thumb-up button accepted only one push. Hope, you find new springs soon. Checking the bag of the vacuum cleaner for suddenly dropped items is an option too. Cheers!
Cheers buddy... but these springs are micro nano size... I have other ideas, looking at UV LED's :))
You know i love lume man 😝
You can paint your fingers and toes if you like... damn, seeing my fingerdoms glow was funny, and Mrs Rangeman had to check on me because of orgasmic laughs of excitement LML :-P
Was great fun to film... HaPpY Weekend my friend, hope all is well with you and your darling family :)
WatchUP69 Mr Rangeman too funny. I wonder if it should be mixed in to nail polish and then used as a hydro dip project🤔
Hat of to you Mr R for all your hard work in bringing this to us (some awesome lume there that’s for sure) that Rangeman is look pretty bloody good to, but am sure it will end up better! Good luck finding your springs so we can see those lights working again (have you tried the stocking over the end of the vacuum cleaner yet?)
Oh also another idea (but am sure your one step ahead) can you gently press a clear film onto the lume you paint on to try and evenly flatten it out (But I guess it would have to stay there that’s all) but it might help spread it evenly 🤔🤷♂️, again, great vid and thanks for sharing👍🍻
Hey buddy... cheers for you great comment :)
The problem with doing this a filming is things don't go to plan, so have found another way to get the paste really smooth, so will do it again :)
As for the springs, these are the thickness of your hair on your eyebrows (just in case you're a bald eagle) and it was when I was picking them up to place in a container two of them decided to leg it LML :-P
Well I have another idea, I've some this far, might as well really go to town and use fibre optics LML :-P
Glad you enjoyed, was fun, but not the easiest to film everything I did, but as you know, I enjoy a challenge and love showing details :)
Cheers!
Hello there WatchUP69,
I must say, thanks you for that vidéo, i'm in the process of making this on my rangeman aswell, that's awesome, but i wanted to know, do you think if the lum powder can be applied to a sheet with an airbrush to avoid having some bruch strokes or some chunks visible behind the display of the watch ?
and second question, did you noticed a slight green tint to the display during the day caused by the lum powder in the display ? or does the display seems to be completely stock during the day ?
How would it look if threw in some lighting blue or is green.. got to look sharp. That looks awesome so cool great job 👍. Reminds me of my vintage lotus sport watch with lum face. I really hope Casio listens to you on this idea. 👏👏👏👏🇺🇸
Lightening blue was bright, but the green is the champ of lume... the blue is nice and does last ok, but the green is stronger!
Funny you mentioned LORUS, next video maybe or the one after with full face lume, and one you've not seen before.
I hope CASIO does watch smaller channels, and it would be so cool to incorporate the UV inside :)
Have a great weekend my friend :)
Congrats for the great result. Very interesting video!!!
You lost backlight probably because you solder both the leds on wrong polarity (Murfy's low). Can be fixed if you reverse them.
Cheers buddy... I lost the backlight because I lost two of those tiny contact springs, and they're not magnetic, so can't even sweep for them using my massive magnet :( I can't find replacements either, so will leave it for the moment, but have ideas... I need some powerful UV's inside, that'll make thing more interesting, but for now, lume shot with a torch keeps her burning :)
@@WatchUP69MrRangeman
Hi my friend, had same lost springs issue, when I positive modded my GW-B5600BC-1BER. Soldered commercial smd leds on the pcb pads (like you did) and now back light works better than original.
UV leds sounds very interesting approach!!!
Waiting for results on a next video.
@@seliandros I will probably send this to a buddy of mine, who has the finer equipment needed... would love a luminescence sheet on the back that's UV, imagine that :)))
I even have ideas with tritium LML :-P
I am thinking about many ideas, and now I've come this far, might as well go to the edge of curiosity :))
Cheers!

Please can u make a video on how to remove the lines on the LCD screen on the rangeman
Hi buddy, I explained in the video how I did it, as filming that wasn't possible... It's a risky job btw, and can go very wrong if your crack the LCD panel.
I am glad you did it 😵💫👏👏👏👏👏🍻🤣
Hello!I want a g shock watch since i was in elementari school,and i still havent got one!It hurts my hart when i see such experiments!!Jus wanted you to know!!! Tomaz M.
So what you're saying is that Nigel is basically "Sosa" from Scarface...
Pablo powder glow
Is there tutorial on removing the lines from the eye?
There isn't... it wasn't easy, as the back part of the polarise film has to be removed, and at anytime, you can easily crack the LCD glass... and you can't find replacements either! It's all a risk, but is a game changer having a readable sub-dial... have no idea why the GW-9400 sub-dial isn't like that on the GWF-D1000???

Delboy's mums graveside monument springs to mind. Might do it to my Nan's for being a moody sod before I do the Rangeman. Only jesting Nan..
But? How can the freedom fighter easily hide the glow¿
UV light LED and background lume…🤯
Could you please do a review, even short and even without the actual watch, of the Garmin Instinct Solar? Maybe a comparison vs the Fenix? I would like to see how to navigate with it, if I can use apps as Komoot, if I can store routes and tracks...
I know there are several reviews already there but no one seems to highlight the differences.
Many thanks
Mr Rangeman (apologies for the lack of knowledge of your real name): I will have a look at your Instinct‘s review from 7 months ago. It is not the solar version but I don’t think that changes the way it manages navigation.
Thanks a lot
@@domxem5551 To be honest I don't think there's much difference between the navigational side... it all depends how long you're wanting to use the GPS, as for me the Gen1 Instinct has plenty of battery for a good days worth, and by adjusting some settings you can push it over 30hrs. Komoot is great, but use it more on my devices as sometimes it's not always easy to plan, I take from Komoot some of the ideas and activities others have used, and combine that with Garmin Explore to make my own route :)
I would like to test the solar Instinct by doing one of my pointless GPS tests that i've done before against the GPR-B1000 G-Shock, but that will be next year if it happens :)
wowwwwwww
Impressive. To bad you lost the backlight.
Cheers buddy, but you know I enjoy new challenges and will get this sorted, but I want UV inside :))
HaPpY Weekend :)
Great video, but I would not like that kind of loom in an army situation. You could be seen from miles with some NVG goggles ;)
Now, this is when you need that extra polarised film to twist and make the entire display go blank :))
I would hang my Rangeman on a branch of a tree and while the enemy is distracted, steal all their biscuits and chocolates LML :-P
*Wow! What a beautiful green color, green is definitely better and does not tire the eyes, I have a Casio that needs more Lumen, its brightness lasts almost an hour, compared to a Citizen Ecodrive Promaster Diver, when going to sleep the light passed UV and all night it maintains its luminescence until it looks like a lamp, just like a SEIKO. I have a question, how many hours of brightness does it maintain? That is important, and you gave me a good idea to increase the Lumen of my Casio, I will visit the page, I hope they send products to Mexico. It is an extraordinary video and I think that Casio should take advantage of your talent. Cheers!! by the way the magnifying glasses were good*
Hey buddy, I really hope CASIO watch my work and ideas... the lume has been done before, but using UV inside is a must... makes a huge difference with setting things on the watch at night... I love that little UV torch, and it take a few seconds to have lume last lasts ages, I have no idea of the formula they use, but it lasts and lasts. I need to really give it a good ten+ minute charge and see how long it really lasts for. I'm sure that lume is charging the solar now LML :-P
HaPpY Weekend my friend and thanks for the support as always :)
@@WatchUP69MrRangeman *thank You. You make a grand video, good morning, have a lovlely day, buddy*
@@xavisoloyo Cheers buddy... am watch the series 'The Boys' really good, and Butcher reminds me of me LML :-P
Have a great Weekend and chat soon :)
be careful you don't use too much of this because it will slow down time. that's why it's illuminescent like that because like it's trapped. if you have too much of this stuff you'll be slowing your watch down but a few minutes every month.
For when you absolutely need to give away your position all night.
LML LML LML just don't take it to the cinema LML :-P
painting is uneven, it looks dirty
You are right my friend... it was just experimental at the time, and in my followup video it's a lot better made :)
😅 “Colombian drug dealer” Cool stuff!
LML :-P I forgot I said that till I was editing LML :-P It looked so amazing to see how glowing powder looks like and I wasn't tripping on anything LML :-P
Cheers for the support my friend, and HaPpY HaPpY Weekend to you too :)
