    G-8000. And that's why I decided to complete my collection with two such watches. One is blue with a mirrored display and the other is black with a negative display.

    4) Two types of fonts display (Bold or Narrow) which can be chosen as per user preference.
    5) Adjustable LCD digit contrast(level 1 to 7). The greater the number, darker the digits.
    6) World time with choosable DST for particular time zone to become zone time which will not effect to other time zones.
    7) 5 Alarms (4 alarms and snooze)
    Alarms can be set for "Daily" or "One time alarm" or "weekend" or "weekday".
    Limitable Hourly time signal
    With From time to To time for "Daily" or "weekend" or "weekday". So it wont distrubt u in the night.
    Hrly time signal tone is different with other gee shocks.It will sound with high pitch tone followed by low pitch tone.
    8) 8 countdown slots which comprised with 7 factory preset countdown slots and one changeable countdown slot.
    Below functions are available for countdown mode.
    "Countdown Stop" - counting down and stop.

    @Watch Geek. If you still are looking for a G-7800, I can get you a BRAND new from my local store, he has had two of them for quite a few months, at around $110! Saw them two weeks ago, so yeah. It's the positive display version with rubber strap. Can confirm tomorrow noon.

      Oh that's great as it means we are both within the EU, so no additional taxes and import duties.
      If it really is the G7800 ask the store owner if they are willing to give additional discount if you buy both and let me know, as I might purchase both of he lowers the price under $100

      Ok, as you see he has three, one is the white (with battery depleted). It's already 30% off, but I could ask for a further reduction as he had them for a long time. PS. Norway is not part of EU, but I'm not sure there is extra taxes anyway.

    • @WatchGeek
      @WatchGeek  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      There are no taxes as we are part of the same market 😁 EFTA.
      I would gladly take the 2 black ones if he is willing to drop the price slightly more, to at least $100

    2:28 The early to mid 2000’s were a very colorful, funky time. Bright, colorful, odd digital watches were in style. I stand by this being the last watch trend before cell phones became the almost universal time-telling device.

    That G-7800 is so cool, physically and function-wise. I'd also like to know why they'd discontinue a watch like that.

      Ako govorimo o DW6900 onda ne, jer je to isti sat kao 5600, odnosno ima iste funkcije, kao on, dok Mudmani imaju više funkcija, ako govorimo o GW6900 onda je bolji od 5600
