    Relaxing voice and very nice video quality. Thank you. I wondered what those metal squares look like in real life. Also, I like the detailed review of the colors and the ideas for mixing and matching.

  • @marcelovasconcellos6067

    Love these type of videos. You make it seem like we are just talking watches and messing through and fiddling with our watches. Watching this as I re adjust the bracelets on my all metal homages to these Gs. Very enjoyable, thank you.

    What a great video. Comparing them side by side and in regular indoor light, I really do have a much better sense of what it would be like to own one. I also wondered why the AliExpress kits come in brushed links and polished watch body, not realizing that that's what Casio does as well.

    I’ve got the gold medal version and I like it but it does stand out a bit more than I like. Somehow it has the smoothest caseback which makes it very comfortable.

    I'm eyeing for steel bezel, resin straps. The GMW-B5000G-2
    Does the colour blue on steel bezel fade easily on long run?
    What if u accidentally scratch it on a hard surface like concrete, will it reveal the steel color grey color on it?

    Great video! You have all of my favorites, which is not surprising, since you seem to have all of them. I got the Tokyo twilight 5600 but would rather have this one of course! I love my “Batman,“ with the blue metal square head and black strap, though I don’t like the way the IP coating looks as it gets banged up (which happened after wearing it for several months straight), which has stopped me from buying any of the more expensive ones. when you have as many as you do, that will probably never happen! Great collection!!

    • @HorologyinSanity
      @HorologyinSanity  Před 2 lety +2

      That's true. Not only am I unable to give any one of them enough wrist time, but I am very gentle on my watches and usually only wear them around the house. If I run errands or something, I wear my 5610BA on a v1 combi, and if I'm doing any "dirty" work or lawn stuff, I wear my inexpensive Casio "not a square." But, the good news is that it leaves all of my watches in nearly mint condition, which my OCD appreciates. hahaha

    I'd like to see a Titanium Gold with some writing on it like the Titanium Square Face "Virtual Armor" GMW-B5000TVA-1DR
    That would be awesome.
    Thanks for sharing 😊

    • @HorologyinSanity
      @HorologyinSanity  Před 2 lety

      That would be pretty neat. I suspect we'll see G-Shock put out a few more like that, based on the popularity of the virtual armor one and of the new MRG squares.

This is only on the quarts side of Seiko, they have a lot of history with mechanical watches. You would not have Casio with out Seiko. Seiko has dirt cheap watches all the way up to hundreds of thousands of dollars on certain Grand Seiko's. Casio does not even have a single mechanical watch.
      This has nothing to do which one is "better" that is all up to the eye of the beholder. But if you are talking about watch brands that have sheer diversity and offering every possible watch varying in technology and price, Seiko/ GS has that in spades!

    have a GMW-B5000RD-4, beautiful burgundy color. I like the blue GMW-B5000G, but it doesn't come with a blue metal bracelet. Why? That doesn't make sense. I do like the Tokyo Twighlight, GMW-B5000PB-6, very hard to find though, one I'd like to get is the GMW-B5000GD-4. I have GW-5000-U-JF-1 on the way, this will be my everyday wearer.

      I'm with you on that. I love that shade of blue. I may be wrong, but I suspect we'll someday see a new titanium one with the blue used on the "spare parts bin" one, which will be nice but it's not the same shade of blue as the blue camo one or the SS blue one.

    I have the red metal square and love it, only problem is how easily it scratches, each time I see a new scratch I get a new scratch on my soul -_-. I’m thinking of getting the multi finish black once it releases in the USA. That blue and that matte black mod look great tho I’d get them for GW U models. I also have the limited edition I think it was city night square? The orange/purple one (display is pretty bad irl) but I think for the prices for those squares you get less value.

    • @HorologyinSanity
      @HorologyinSanity  Před 2 lety +1

      Sweet! And, yeah, my OCD doesn't love the scratches either. In fact, I got my red one second-hand and it was scratched, but the previous owner was nice enough to order a replacement OEM bezel from pacparts to include in the sale. I haven't swapped them out yet, but that'll give me an extra to play around and mod with.

      I had a Raysman DW-9350MSJ-2T, great watch until the resin band and bezel crumbled away. I still have the 1584 module, the screws and the buckle. Resin doesn't like being used. Now I have a metal square and I'm loathe to use it because it will get scratched.
