Vintage G-Shock | Fully Restored | Genuine Casio Parts
A fantastic early example of the legendary Casio G-Shock DW-6900 series, this DW-6900G-1V dates from 1995 and comes from my own personal collection.
This watch has undergone an extensive restoration rather than simply being cleaned and fitted with a new battery. The aim was to preserve the original watch wherever practical while replacing worn components with genuine Casio parts.
The original crystal showed signs of its age and has been sympathetically polished, considerably improving its appearance without unnecessarily replacing an original component.
The watch has been fitted with a new genuine Casio bezel, genuine Casio straps and genuine Casio light button, together with a new battery and new case-back gasket.
The watch was also stripped sufficiently to allow the seals to be attended to. The case-back and pusher-button gaskets have been cleaned and appropriately lubricated, helping preserve the watch for future use.
The LCD polarising filter has also been replaced, completing what has been a comprehensive refurbishment.
The original coloured decals on the internal faceplate had begun to deteriorate and peel with age. Rather than leave damaged and unsightly graphics in place, they were carefully removed during restoration.
This means the watch no longer has its completely original faceplate appearance, something I want to make absolutely clear to its next owner.
However, the result is a much cleaner, almost stealth-style appearance which works particularly well with the black case and bezel.
