I have lot of interests and like to try my hand at a lot of things. Cars, trucks, engines, repairs, watches, photography. Pretty much anything that gets my attention. I like vintage if possible.

Latero!!!
My mountain biking watch is a DW5600E same 1545 module... I bought it for $5 in about the same condition as that... I spent maybe $30 for a new OEM bezel and some bull bars and JaysAndKays NATO adapters this watch for $35 has served me quite well for 8~yrs out on the trails .. Mine does have some scratches on the crystal that I'm pretty sure I put their in some mtb incident or other. I really like mine as I kinda rescued it and it is custom~ for less than the price of a new DW5600E. Just last week I did have to buy new $10 NATO adapters cause I broke one of them riding a trail... luckily the other held and I didn't lose my watch, and I had to put a new battery in while I was at it, as mine was still running but if you tried the backlight the screen would blank out temporarily (low batt).
That is great! I still use mine on days when I'm grinding away on an engine!
You don't know what nasty is. Thats pristine. You don't even know what ruff is. All that needs is an interior bath and maybe a paint job. That's all. Thats a diamond that needs virtually nothing. I would love to find something that nice.
Can you please give me a watch. i honestly have not budget to buy a watch. i want to wear a watch on my wrist. Please give me watch. I will always support you.
Good work! Enjoy!
Of course it still works, but at the same time it's not even worth it. By the time you've cleaned it up and bought a new battery and strap, you've pretty much spent more time and money than it's worth over just getting a new one.

I have a g shock m 5620, change the gasket, what size gasket should I use?
If you look up G shock DW 5600 casebook it will show up. On my packet it said: Casio gasket 10245496
Nice seikos!! I'm searching for a pepsi bezel insert for my 82 700F.
Great video mate, like your genuine enthusiasm.
It's g shock man Legend never dies ❤
buen video
Nice vid. After watching YTs regarding the heat output of the 502, I was concerned about its ability to perc a decent amount of Joe. You have allayed my fears. Thx!
Interesting. I noticed the description in the book says "day in English for the morning hours and in Spanish for the afternoon hours." My 7548-700 F (blue dial, 1981) stays in English or Spanish morning and afternoon, unless I manually switch the language from Spanish to English.
What book is that? Correct display is either one or the other all day. You can choose the display language or symbol, depending upon which language you watch has, but it is supposed to show one all day until the change over. I still love these watches!
@@northwind1967 The book he has in his hands. See video from minute 2:18 to 2:20, the description makes that statement.
What can sleep for years under the the dirt an revive of given juice ? G -Shocks and Vampires 😂😂
Yes they are brilliant watches. I still have my GM 5600B 3er from new, bought it as a spare. Never worn it, modified it with black metal strap components from the States. Should get at least 8 years out of the battery but they are so easy to change.
Hey Brother did you sale the bags you weren’t using ?
Tip no tweezers on battery and no fingers only a tip use plastic tweezers to grab the battery if you use steak tweezers you short the battery
Hey I bought one of these from you! The second 700F you showed from March of 1981, I purchased it on Ebay in November of 2022. I thought it looked familiar, sure enough its the same serial number!
That’s awesome! I sure like these! Hope you’re enjoying it!
@@northwind1967 Absolutely! I put in a new crystal, gaskets, and battery and its been doing great!
OMG... just fainfull to watch 🤦♂
In the 90's, I would buy a new G-Shock about every two years and throw the old watch in the trash. Always the black square model. The plastic band would get squeaky and brittle and then break.
What is the problem 😂 How hard could this be?
I bought a pilot pioneer but I wish Hamilton would have kept the text and the font the same as on the W-10.
And thats why they have resale value
A little tip as a watchmaker, please put on protective finger cots. You should not touch or pick up a watch movement with your fingers. Kind regards
Well done, it looks as good as new, most people would have thrown it away and just bought new!
Hello, did you end your sell the 780? How’s the refurbished 980 holding up? What speakers did you use in this video?
Sold the 780 and the 980 is still great. Sansui 5500i is what I had at the time I think.
6 years ago I purchased a refurbished 850 for my then 9 year old son. I got it for a deal on eBay it arrived with a ding on the wood and the seller was a stand up guy and refunded I think it was $200 off of the sale price making it an even better deal. I want to say I paid 5 or $600 before the discount. I then found myself a 750 on Craigslist 4 yrs ago in awesome survivor condition for $200. I just added a Bluetooth module to it and it was ready to go. I use it as my daily. Still works great! I really prefer the 80 series black VU meters but I could never find a deal on one. I’ll just keep searching.
They are out there! I always have my eyes open for these. Sometimes in strange places they will be around!@@user-UnMagico
Please do your thing ! You tube needs content like this . Congrats 👍👍
Folks who work on the watches they collect will often purchase "related" watches...which is to say models in a given line that share a significant percentage of parts. The 940/946 pairing share about 85% of the parts in common, giving the collector an "edge" should something ontoward happen from an accident or mishap. Hamiltons and Illinois are huge go-to-s for collectors, just like they were for the Railroad industry 100 years ago. Beautiful pieces. Oh......did I mention I have two 940-s? Good thing I don't have a bias, right? 😂😂😂
My DW-5600 has 25 years and counting.
Impressive for us. Just another day for a G-Shock! Nice video!
Incredible, thank you.
You‘re a good man. We need most of them these times!
Hey, I’m watching because I inherited the same pot from my mom.
Keep the the 031 and put a Tropic strap on it. You will love it. Cheers
Thanks for the tip!
Seiko is such a great watch manufacturer. Thanks for the video.
To najlepszy zegarek. Mam trzy kostki i uwielbiam je. Mam jeszcze GW-9400, ale DW-5600 jest najwygodniejszy na co dzień i najtwardszy w pracy.
Dzięki za oglądanie!
Rule of thumb. When it comes to changing a 3volt lithium battery you never touch the battery with your fingers. It drains the power dramatically. Always use tweezers.
Thanks!
Poor g-shock doesn’t deserve that, I wouldn’t throw it out
You cannot kill a DW G-Shock, it`s as simple as that.
Beautiful, l love the VU meters. I have a SX636, and 1250 (which are now being refurbished for 450 USD/1000USD respectively, but are complete refurbishments). Pioneer were producing these quality receivers, which had so much quality. Forty plus years later they still hold up well.
How can you find the date of manufacture?
the serial number gives you the year options and month options. There are also online databases to look at. Seiko was very consistent.
There's a six digit serial number on the watch. The first two numbers signify the year and month respectively. They were made between 1978-85, so it's not possible to confuse the year with another. For Oct, Nov, Dec, the number is replaced by a O, N or D for the first letter of the month. Mine is from May 1983, so the serial number is 35.... For December 1978 it would be 8D.... Hope that helps.
nice Ephesians pencil!
Thanks! I created those a few years ago to give out on Father's day in our church. I'll send you one if you want
Hi there...very interesting...I have one that I bought new years ago and it is a 7548-700F with a black dial
That must be the best advertising of a g-shock ever.Hope casio has paid you some $$$.

Nice video. Cool to see the perkulator in action 😊👍
Have the 780 and I love it. Nice warm sounds, even the Pioneer DX 563 dvd player sounds nice and rounded on it. Much more power for my little bedroom than I need…oh well.
I must confess that i have thrown them in the trash when the battery died! Just went out and got a new one as they USED to be cheap and amazing value for money! Its a timeless classic ,no pun intended! I still have the 5600c and somehow that escaped the rubbish bin ,thankfully-
That car sat outside for much of its time . They just now pushed it inside . I hope you didn’t overpay for what is a parts car .
