The r/GShock [BST] Buy, Sell, Trade Thread.
Welcome to the r/gshock Buy, Sell, Trade thread! This is a r/gshock tradition since 2020! (Changed from monthly to biannually in Jan 2025).
This thread is the only place to buy and sell on r/gshock!
Rules
Requirements
- Prove possession with a timestamp: a piece of paper placed under your sale item(s) with your Reddit username handwritten and the posting date (no more than 2 weeks old).
- Top-level comments must be WTS or WTB comments. Anything else will be removed. Begin your top-level comment with WTB (Want to Buy), WTS (Want to Sell), or WTT (Want to Trade). Remember, trade items require timestamps, too!
- A price is required. When lowering prices or announcing sold items, please edit the top-level comment.
- Reposting WTS or WTB items from previous BSTs is fine. Do not repost within the same month!
- Mark items sold with a strikethrough of the entire sale item; e.g.
$75Use double tildes to accomplish this:~~75~~(This helps greatly with scanning the BST to find items for purchase!)
Suggestions
- Your location (or at least where you're willing to ship).
- Watch details.
- A bunch of photos of your items.
Reminder: Buy the Seller
Take necessary precautions; trading over the Internet is risky. Moderators hold no control over deals, good or bad. Employ the UniversalScammerList - search all sellers there! If an interaction seems sketchy to you, run away! Scams can and do happen through the BST! Some tips:
- Timestamps. If the person you're dealing with isn't quick to provide timestamps on the images, or a photo of the flashlight in a shoe or whatever, don't deal with them.
- Reverse image searching is a great way to catch scammers.
- Excuses for not sending photos are a red flag.
- Using a platform other than Reddit's private messages for communication is a red flag.
- Don't use Reddit chats. Chats can be deleted!
- Giving you a hard time about any hesitation you show is a red flag.
- Check post history. Brand new accounts or accounts with long pauses in activity, etc., might not be trustworthy.
- It's good practice to comment on this post before sending a PM; scammers often won't comment publicly (and banned users can't comment here.)
If you're dealing with someone who might be sketchy, take screenshots of your interactions and report them to the mods! We care about this thread's integrity and will ban those threatening it.
Do not let a scammer be more diligent than you!
More Tips
- PirateShip is a great shipping option. https://ship.pirateship.com/ship/single
- "Shipping included" items tend to sell more quickly.
- USPS Priority Flat Rate. Weight is not a factor when you use the official Flat Rate packing, and the packaging is free through the USPS website.

First Reddit post. Lmk how it is.
First G-Shock on right (GA-710GB bought for wedding) I’ve used daily at the shop and haven’t adjusted the time in a month or so (4 seconds fast). Tough as nails through the spatter and knocks. Only ‘gripe’ is the yellow button, however it is my wedding watch so I plan on new glass and modding to a black button someday. Is also my first watch ever.
Second G-Shock would be (far left) GST-B1000D bought for everyday wear outside of shop. Love the minimalistic look/size and third hand. Can’t beat solar as well. Still looking for a problem to have.
Third G-Shock will be the GST-B400GB (middle) purchased this week as my shop watch reliever. Solar, Bluetooth, steel with carbon guard, and two analog hands easily readable at any angle under the gloves (if I need the date then I can spare a second to see the sub-par MIP).
All resting on a custom ‘G-Steel’ stand (stainless steel base with 1.5”x2”x6” square conduit as watch rest)
TLDR: G-Shocks can withstand prod/fab shop life, you could even say the G-Shop life 🤙🏻

Modding Modded DW5600CS
I bought a battered old DW5600CS from ebay. The resin strap was beyond repair so I decided to have some retro fun with it and bought a pre-aged/distressed bracelet and bezel kit from aexpress. I quite like how it's turned out.

NGD My first G-Shock - GW-BX5600-1A1-ER
I got my son a G-Shock for his graduation last year (a Casioak).
I finally got one for myself, an early birthday gift from my wife. It was a pre-order from FirstClass Watches and wasn't supposed to be available until August. It arrived 2 days ago.
My very first watch was a Texas Instruments digital watch that my dad gave me when I was about 6 or 7 (I'll be 53 next month). He always made sure all four of us siblings each had a watch while growing up. I'm one of those who feel naked leaving the house without a watch. How tech has advanced so much since then!
After having been on 50+mm smartwatches the past few years, my first impression of this is, it's tiny! It's so much smaller than I imagined. While the stock strap is nice, I couldn't get it to fit right (hole spacing isn't right for me), so I got a combi bracelet knock-off from AE. I'll be experimenting with some fabric bands too, as well as try FKM straps with an adapter.
I'm looking forward to having this watch for a long time.
For reference, my wrist circumference is 17 cm (approximately 6.75 inches).
