Casio Gshock All Metal - Any fans here?

I first bought the silver version out of curiousity to see what's the fuss about as many of my WIS friends have got one. Then it grown on me. Now I just bought a second gold version ( plated ).









They are a tad costly for Gshock and quartz but damn, they are really good looking and cool looking for the price. So any Casio All metal fans out there? What's your experience?

I'm a fan. I own all variants of this watch except the yellow gold one. Haven't gotten my hands on it yet. :(

I am a big fan, though I'm a bit picky but this one is an absolute yes for me.

Best regards.

Not picked up one yet, but big fan of both. If I was a gazillionaire, I'd have the solid gold version too...

Cool. But I'll probably end with these two. The black version doesn't really sing to me.

The "gold version", ie plated gold is good enough. Frankly, it looks damn good under sunlight. Unless side by side with my DD40, it doesn't feels like gold, excluding the weight of course.

Remove the stickers and wear them.

Just discovered this watch and love it. I spent hours this weekend trying to find the gold model (GMWB5000TFG-9) for sale but had no luck.
