Just bought this...
on: August 27, 2013, 07:40:15 PM
I've been looking for a G-Shock, for everyday wear. I was looking at a few, then noticed this:

My god! What have I done?!?  :) :assimilate:

The Mudman will be my next G-Shock.  I had a really had time choosing between my white GWM850, and that one.

Now you will find out you´ll want another one with positive display, then find out either about the new or the vintage ones and then you´ll end up on Watchuseeks G-Shock forum, thinking how to split the money between tools and G´s...
Have fun!

Yup... already had a bid on another G-Shock. I was, fortunately, outbid.  :facepalm: :whistle:

There's an instructable out there, that shows how to convert the display for pennies.

Take off the polarizing film, and replace with a new piece at 90degrees. Instant neg display.

I dig the green. I've been wearing a black Mudman more or less constantly since early 2010, and it is my favorite watch ever. It's also my only wrist watch, so it kinda wins by default. But, I have never felt the need to pick up another one. For days when I want to go classy, I have a nice pocket watch.
