That text has space enough for at least 9 photo's ;-)<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />SjorsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12340378348442987683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463679325672599668.post-28677436678355475712009-10-12T21:58:58.270+02:002009-10-12T21:58:58.270+02:00Hi Albe,

I have about 475 G-Shock's. An average battery holds about 3 - 5 years, so about 100 batteries die a year, that's two a week. <br /><br />I try to keep most running (specially the ones I wear). I buy CR2016 batteries in batches of 100! Since a battery change can take some time (specially those DW-003 and DW-004 models with covered back protection), sometimes watches pile up for a battery change. In fact this one was on the pile and several are still waiting.<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />SjorsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12340378348442987683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463679325672599668.post-86600023695401594632009-10-12T21:46:38.471+02:002009-10-12T21:46:38.471+02:00Hi Sjors!

Anyway m...Hi Sjors!<br /><br />Did you recieve my PM at WUS?<br /><br />Anyway me too never liked the Giez very much. They are nice watches but they do not get me excited. I am not to found of the sleek design, not enough G-Shock in its design sort of speak...<br /><br />I much prefer MRG and some cockpits. Also the new pilot watch the GW-2500 just looks awesome, way better and cooler looking then the Giez.<br /><br />As for the Giez word,according to Wikipedia it is: Giez is a municipality in the district of Grandson in the canton of Vaud in Switzerland.<br /><br />Many companys have played with the word Jesus, thats a word you can use when you see something that surprises or impresses you. If you see a really fast sports car speeding by perhaps you then say "Jesus"<br /><br />I remember a swedish company OLW that in the 90's had a commercial where they used the slogan Cheeses instead of the word Jesus to describe their Cheese Doodles.<br /><br />Perhaps that was the way Casio where thinking with the Giez name, Giez was originally a premium G targeted towards the European market. Here in Europe where we did not have any Frogmans or MRG's it was the most expensive models in the G-Shock line. So perhaps the name is a play with the word Jesus and G-Shock, basically a name that denotes the impressivness of the top of the line G-Shock that makes you say Giez thats a nice watch heheSkyForce6https://www.blogger.com/profile/01480360969777797359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463679325672599668.post-15181325895750198882009-10-11T15:10:19.528+02:002009-10-11T15:10:19.528+02:00Hi Sjors,

Thanks for that !<br /><br />I was wondering : After some time batteries deplete - do you try to keep your huge collection of G-shocks all running ? <br /><br />Greetings,<br />AlbeAlbehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16061452055690943978noreply@blogger.com
