Great video! I just picked this up yesterday and am totally in love with the Watch. I love how you can see the amazing quality in a watch that from far away looks like a regular G shock. I’ve had many Swiss watches including Pateks,APs, etc and even Grand Seiko and you can see the high quality in the titanium finish and overall Watch.. I know it’s not unique to this Watch, but I noticed you didn’t mention the Safire crystal. It is very nice!

When I saw the price of the previous Titanium versions I thought it was too much money for a G Shock because I didn't like the designs or the colors, it didn't make sense to me. When this version came out I didn't hesitate for a second to get it and now that I have it I understand everything. It is a spectacular watch that weighs nothing and the details are superb. I am very happy with it.

I’m glad I finally bought the TVA - it’s my favorite watch of any brand that I’ve ever worn. I like my other Titanium Screwback squares but this one is my favorite. They should have given the MR-G square the same mostly matte finish treatment this one received. They should release a TVC and give it a similar color palette that the TVB has, albeit solid bezel/band rather than the blocks/diagonals of color. A raw/silver titanium version would also be awesome.

Thanks for your comprehensive and insightful review. Titanium is a great choice as it aligns best with lightness and ease of wear of the resin/plastic models (comfort) while enhancing the durability of the piece. Having experience a MT G B1000 I found the extra bulk of steel less comfortable, so it's really not in the rotation as a result.

Wow what a video pal! This has got to be the Best of the Best out there and I think I've seen them all now especially when your seriously thinking of pulling the trigger and getting one? My only concern is the size of the actual watch as I used to have the sponsored variant and it was just too big for my wrists! I was hoping this one being in all black etc it would make it look smaller in appearance but the over hanging on your wrist just put me off slightly. However everything else just oozes class, style and a top notch futuristic design all in one package. Keep up the Great work!!

Conventional push pins. It has a metal sleeve in the middle. So when removing these pins, make sure you don’t lose those small metal sleeves. It’s an extra precaution that casio does for these bracelets to ensure they stay in place. Because of the holes on the links, they had to use push pins which are smaller and fits right over the drilled holes of the links.

@@DesignAtelier oh cool 😄 that’s too bad though… that it’s not offered with the inverted display. The aesthetic of that mostly black display on this exceptionally finished all black watch would have been perfect 👌 This is my first time coming across this channel and you seem quite well versed in the world of G-SHOCKs. So let me ask you this, even though it would be a shame to change anything about a 2000$ digital watch, but would it be possible to do a, hopefully seamless, swap of that internal module for one that has the negative display? Perhaps from another GMW B5000?
@DesignAtelier
@DesignAtelier 3 жыл бұрын
Yes you can replace the module with a negative display. However there are some things to keep in mind. First, the cheapest model with a negative display is the GMW-B5000-1 (metal bezel with resin bands) retailing at 400$. Second, the module will swap easily but you will need to remove the face plate too. this is a little bit trickier to do but not too dangerous if you have modded a casio before. you can find only tutorials how to safely do this. And finally, there is no shame in modding a 2000$ watch. Once you bought the watch, it's yours and you can do whatever you want with it. If you intend to sell it off in the future, I wouldn't even touch that caseback at all. I for one, wanted to dismantle my TVA but I don't have a good enough pair of screw drivers for that task. so you know already this one is a keeper for me.

@@DesignAtelier thanks for the info! I have been looking into it and what most people seem to agree on is going for a metal square with a screw-down case-back for a hopefully easy module swap. And you’re right, the cheapest one would be around 400$ with a resin strap. I love the TVA case & bracelet. But I feel the negative display would make it perfect. If I was ever to buy the TVA, I’ll look for a seller that has it and a GMW with negative display and buy them both. Maybe I can get a deal to ease the blow to my wallet 😜

@@DesignAtelier Do you think that that will be a problem? It's a less abrasion resistant coating if I'm not mistaken and it's applied to the potentially most exposed surface of the watch. Also, I'm really new to the square G-Shock scene, but when you say that for the price of the TVA you would like to see a better module, which module would that be? I mean what is missing from this module?

@@konap7 if you’re worried of abrasion for your G-Shock, this model might not be for you. Ironic it might be, the price of this model out weighs the durability and sensibleness of purchasing one. The DLC will scratch in time. You need to develop a mentality of ignoring scratches first before diving into an overpriced gshock. I’m coming from a mechanical watch collecting background so I’m used to scratching my pieces enough not to even worry about it. As for the module, if they are going to charge over a grand for a watch with the same module that I can get for a 3rd of that price, I’m wishing for more than just cosmetic changes. I wanted extra functions to warrant that extra charge. I guess they are adding that much because of the material and limited run of the piece. That’s another thing I would not recommend to anyone beginning it the Gshock scene.

@@DesignAtelier Fair enough. I have other watches that are made of metal. The thing with an all black model is that a scratch is not only a scratch but also shows the metal underneath. And having the bezel being more sensitive than the rest of the watch is just a bad design choice if true. This particular model just spoke to my heart like you said in your video. There are other square G-Shocks that I like but I don't like them enough to consider buying them. But this one is just special somehow... 😅

@@konap7 like with most things in life, if like it enough, you make sacrifices. I learned to move my left arm inward my body whenever approaching door posts, lined my desk with rubber and even walk with my wife on her left side so my watches stay safe! I’m sure if you bought one of these, you’ll likely take good care of it. Just be reasonable and not lose sleep over a scratch or two. These are meant to be worn and would still be very durable compared to other watches.

It looks almost too pretty to wear. Almost. For those who think it's over-priced, it's limited, so, must pay for its own production costs. That's a milled titanium clasp and the polishing is obviously by hand. It has luxury watch features that actually make its price reasonable.

The TVA is a beautiful watch. Great video, awesome production quality! Why do you think the clasp body isn't titanium? I'm fairly certain it is on other models. The steel spring bars for sure mark on it like it's titanium and it isn't cold like SS. It's on of my (very reserved) concerns about my 5000TB, is that over the years the micro-adjust and deployment spring bars will slowly drill through the clasp body.

There’s nothing wrong to beat it as you wear it. It’s just perception we all need to get pass through. We all want it to be in Prestine condition. But in reality, the moment you drop the money to buy it, it’s already a 1700$ loss to your equity. So why by bothered in beating up an item that already lost value?
