    That looks pretty fantastic. I'm surprised how many commenters don't care for it.

    Without doubt these kits offer excellent value. Thanks, Greg.

    I've done this mod with the black metal version, looks so dope I absolutely love it.

    I just pulled the trigger on a GA-B2100BNR1A Ignite Red. And ordered an all black metal mod kit from SKX. Really looking forward to it. This is my first Casioak and it’s gonna pop with that red on black color scheme. Thanks for these videos, Greg. I really enjoy your content. Expecting my AWG-M100A-1ACR today. I’m leaning towards a composite knockoff Casio bracelet for that one. Looking to get the 2024 GW-2320FP Fire Package next. Really diggin’ these Tough Solar G-Shocks and some of their designs. These metal mod kits make these pseudo metal G’s obtainable and it’s fun modding these watches. With SKX, you can design and come up with your own unique watch.

    I wasn't planning on modifying mine but this stainless look is fire.

    I’ve done two of these metal mods already. In my experience, this mod does not affect the Bluetooth functionality at all. I bought a cheaper metal bezel & bracelet from Amazon for $79.00. For my GA B2100BNR Indigo Red, I spent a little more for the SKXMOD Kit which is of much better quality. The SKX kit looks classier in my opinion and goes together more nicely. But I digress, the metal mod doesn’t affect the Bluetooth function at all. So no worries there. Happy modding! 🙂

    Good video buddy, yknow I am frankly amazed that nobody yet has not made a metal case like that but with a sapphire glass in place (replaceable obviously), all it needs is to be slight deeper to accommodate the module plus the sapphire glass on top.

    I recently did a Caution Yellow (GA-B2100CY ) ìin a black case, love the original Casio look but I don't do plastic or resin or whatever. I did consider the GM-B2100 but it's very shiny and I prefer the Caution Yellow dial (would have preferred a positive digital display) I still might get one and apply a brushed finish, but for now I'm enjoying the black stainless Caution Yellow.

    Looks good. The only thing Im afraid is that some of those kits are not stainless steel. I’ve seen a couple of photos where this bracelet started to rust.

    Is there any difference between a GA2100 1aer and a GA2100 1a1er? And does a mod for the 1aer fit for the 1a1er too?

    This watch looks great, and what about the shock resistant?

  • @pauljosephbuggle3722
    @pauljosephbuggle3722 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I like it but I think the weight difference goes against the concept of the watch. For that reason I wouldn't do it.

  • @wb4514
    @wb4514 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Casio recommends that you turn the tiny screws backward a few turns to get the screw to drop in the threads correctly.

    I’ve got the silver all metal casioak and while it’s really nice, I’m not sure it’s $500 nice (I paid about $450). I guess they justify it by it being made in Japan with better fit and finish plus the screw down case back but for the price it should’ve had sapphire glass instead of mineral crystal. Not sure I would purchase it again if I had the chance. I think what you did by making an all metal yourself is a far better value.

    It's not a gshock anymore unless you tell them its a gshock. If you want the AP royale oak style, there are lots of branded and chinese homages similar to the royale oak.

    Looks pretty great. It turned out very nice. The rose gold modification would be to my taste if I was ever to try this. Seeing how easy this mod was to complete would help me into doing this in the future. Have been looking at doing this. Great video.

    i know its sounds weird but
    i have gst-b500 it is already stainless steel but i want to change the bezel into the black one
    the question is, does it similar to ga-b2100 or it is completely different watch?
    can you fit gst-b500 into this bezel?

  • @wraith4648

    Guys for the tough solar, if we change the watch dial face the solar function wouldn't work right?

    • @AdAstraStakePool
      @AdAstraStakePool ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yeah, you are correct. If you change the dial on the tough solar version, you would lose the solar power function.

      I never did anything to disturb the screws holding the back of the case to the case. There should be no change to the water resistance.

    why do you have to make the strap that tight? It's not a leather strap. Bracelets are meant to be loose.

      I didn’t do anything to open the case or affect the seal on the back of the case, so I expect no change whatsoever in water resistance.

    Definitely prefer Casios original design in metal, that one just looks a bit tacky, just trying to make it look like something its clearly not, its just not that great an idea for a G-Shock, it just looks WRONG.

    • @tydshiin5783
      @tydshiin5783 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yea it just doesn't work especially with the positive lcd there
      The Bluetooth variant at least has a sunburst effect on the dial but it's too little on the case

    • @AndyJayLark
      @AndyJayLark ปีที่แล้ว

      The GM-2100 (with metal bezel and resin strap) costs the same as this aftermarket setup seen in the video but still retains the original inscribed G-shock etc writing on the metal bezel. With so many colour options from Casio and comparable pricing to the mod kits I’m hard pressed to find the benefit of these alterations. It is fun to take stuff apart and put it back together again, I’ll give You that. Perhaps Casio should release watches that need assembly by the user. 🤔
