This is the official GPW B E A S T THREAD OF AWESOMENESS the only purpose of which is the glorification, showing off, celebration and general awesomisation of our BEASTs....

If you have a GPW. If you are skydiving with it from a Space Capsule. If you are driving 300kph on a race track in a Bugatti Veyron Spider. If you are piloting a WW I fighterplane. If you are eating a XL doublecheesegoldencrust megapizza with pineapples and barbecuesauce all by yourself. If you are doing anything remotely awesome while wearing your BEAST - we want to know. We want to SEE it. So far these incredible devices have been shown in their cozy little boxes, on their pillow surrounded by dark leather and golden writing.

This ends NOW! And this here is the place to show off your heroic deeds! GO! :rodekaart :rodekaart :rodekaart :rodekaart :rodekaart :rodekaart:rodekaart

Just wanted to check in and say not to bother with the shapeways plastic NATO adapters, they are weak and break easily.

i ordered several colors of plastic, and one rhodium plated brass. The brass is strong enough. I don't know what they were thinking trying to tame the beast with plastic. Still want a PVD stainless adapter instead, just because.

Hi Guys,

Question: has anyone felt that the crown on the beasts is a bit-too-easy to turn from its lock to unlock position. I've felt that the resistance is quite feeble, and even the routine friction with ones' wrist, is able to rotate the crown to the unlock position.

I ask this cos once the marker gets to the "unlocked" position, the crown more-or-less auto-releases to the zero position, and if it goes unnoticed, one could end up damaging the crown and/or get it wet (if you are in the pool or even washing ones' hands)

Keen to have your thoughts on this.

Yes, it is something to be weary of and was reason enough for me to sell off my Beast.

It may be secure enough for some but for me the design strays from design elements basic to the G...

If it were to have a "threaded crown," like the new MUDMASTER, I would have kept it...

If wrist movement could turn the crown I would think one should loosen the watch by 1 notch on the band. I wear my GPW 1 notch looser as 1 notch tighter is too tight - try it you might be surprised. It will move around more on your wrist by being looser. I like looser better than too tight.

I don't think the smart crown on the GPW is a problem.

Kinda out of place but touching on the same subject at the same time, for the guys who keep worrying about the smart access crown. After collecting for almost 2 years now eCh new g shock purchase gets better and more expensive so what a year ago would have been my best watch, is now a beater watch. Out of curiosity during my vacation recently, I decided to test the durability of a g shock with the smart access crown using my GWA1100, ironically the same exact one that was featured in a thread where it got water damage in a hot tub by another user on this site. I went in a hot tub 6 nights in a row, went in ocean, went smashing into rocks while hiking, all while wearing the watch. I always lock my crowns however I had not checked this one at first because well I just don't care if it breaks cuts I'm testing here, but it turns out the crown was unlocked the whole time!

So I don't know how long it was unlocked but it definitely had at least one 30 min session in the hot tub with it unlocked and I'm happy to say, there is absolutely no damage. No fog, no moisture, no nothing other than a beat up resin band. This may be a different model watch but the point is that it's an older model, when the smart crown tech was less matured, and it definitely faced water. I'm continuing my own little test of toughness regarding analog upscale g shocks by wearing the gwa1100 everyday to work. But I would imagine the smart access crown tech is better in the Beast than it is in the GWA110

Thanks for all the insight guys. The opinions are diverse, although the common message I sense is that GPWs are tough enough watches with not-so-sensitive crowns (except Steelinox's view), and if the crown on my particular watch is overtly free, that is likely to be an isolated case.

I'll try to get it checked, just to be sure.

Rich, pics does not do this justice, it has to be seen and worn to really make your mind to it. I wasn't even sure I'd get one, but when the opportunity arises, Bang! Or another fella would buy it and it's gone gone gone... It was a perfect match for my MTG 313 Basel. Ask around your retail or G-shock outlets. That's what I did, you won't be disappointed with this BEAST! There were only 5 that came here, not sure how many are coming in the US, but there will be a release in SOHO NY g-shock!
Keep me posted on the hunt, I'm pretty sure it will come there September or so.

Cheers,

Hi Shield,

I know will all the different IP treatment and materials on the GPW and MTG can me quite confusing.

-Kawei-
To resume:

GPW-1000T: Titanium 64, dlc treatment. Like a MRG. Probably the most resistant.
GPW-1000TBS: Titanium 64, aged IP treatment black & gold. Same treatment MTG S1000BS. Limited.
GPW-1000V. Stainless Steel, aged IP treatment black & silver. Same treatment MTG S1000V.
