Congratulations. Your gshock is now a gshock core inside of some chinesium case and bracelet now.👍

“Looks more like a four thousand dollars watch.” LUUUL

[@TeluguUnfiltered]

The orange strap one looks elegant and genuine

[@wilsep]

The black bezel with the black strap just looks insanely good!

[@ryanm9554]

I have the same SKXMODS kit with a green dial GM! I love it and wear it everywhere that I won't take a mechanical watch. Music shows (concerts), Shooting range, dirty chores, etc the Casioak tags along and I do truly enjoy it as a "beater" watch, but with style. I wear it most on the black FKM rubber (same brushed case with black bezel) and swapped to the pin buckle as the deployment feels pretty flimsy/cheap.

[@BraveBeaters]

Uuu the shooting range, I'm missing that :) The clasp is standard, yes. it does not match the quality of the rest of the accessories.

[@BalazsCzigany]

Hey Mate! I have the green dial GM as well, however I cannot decide between the all silver case VS the silver case with black bezel. Unfortunately there are not even photos about that version on the internet. I also tred ask photos from the skxmod team but without success. Please, please If you would not mind to upload some pictures of you watch somewhere and share the link with us. PLEASE xD

Great video,, that looks ten times better than those Moonswatches. 👍🤙.

[@BraveBeaters]

For sure! Far better and reliable.

[@GEMSofGOD_com]

Moonswatches paint your wrists. Absolute garbage.

[@douglaswheeler4712]

Great Video, yes, once the orange bushings are removed, the module easily pushes right out, thank you for that. This video is the only GM-2100 metal modding instructional video that I have found. I have 2 GM-2100s, 2 GA-2100s, 2GA-B2100s, and 1 GM-B2100 Full Metal. I have modded 5 of them now and I have used both the CASIOAK Mod brand and the SKXMOD brand. Subjectively, I prefer SKXMOD for the finishing on the case and band, vertical texturing or brushing. Looks really nice. I did have issues with CASIOAK kit with over tightened screws in band. Had to be very careful with removal and reinstalling after sizing the band. Also the SKXMOD kit has real watch screwdrivers, instead of toy screwdrivers, and a nice lens protector. Very complete kit. Used a Torx T5 screwdriver to remove the GM-2100 screws in case. Fit is perfect. Really love the SKXMOD kit. If you're buying any of the variations of the 2100s, in my opinion they are not Casio homages to the AP Royal Oak. The closest would be the Casio Edifice EQB-1100YDC-1AJF. A stunning, beautiful watch, octagon bezel, Bluetooth connection with Edifice app. 0 problems with connecting. Sapphire, and a charcoal IP coating. Solid links in band. Case and band finishing is on par with my G-steel's and Oceanus'. If it had a Japan Indigo dial it could easily pass a for Oceanus. Also the Edifice EFSS570D-1, A very nice watch but under-minded by a cheaper quality hollow or folded link band, and CASIO Edifice Sapphire Glass EFR-S108D-1AVUEF, also hollow links. All are octagon bezels.Go to the SKXMOD site for all specs on which cases fit which Casio 2100s. There are definitely differences, but they do a great job at description and specs.

[@quangtran2250]

Is this kit compatible with Gm2100-1A?

Thx for making this video. It convinced me to purchase the watch and mod. Great work!

[@fr4120]

*during all the video* Damn I need that Casio Oak *at **5:50* Damn I must get myself an AP

[@watchingdanny]

I don't like the fake crown. Otherwise it came out looking very nice. The real Casioak still comes with a steel case, screwdown caseback and is solar powered with Bluetooth connectivity. And now they're going for about $425 bucks. This kit is no longer the bargain it once was. Excellent video though. Thank you for making it.

[@michaelputro5766]

I am very much considering this as a bday gift for myself.... thank you again for a great video

It's a cool combo, you will enjoy it :) Thank you and Happy Birthday in advance!

[@downtimefun]

I am tempted to get one now, I already have the OG red 2100, and always hesitated to get another 2100, but the mod looks amazing

[@katherinelangford981]

GA-2100 watches are on for the equivalent of $64USD here this weekend. I'm tempted to get a number of them. I have the virtual world and an off-white pinkish one with rose gold accents. I'm tempted to get the red you have and a smoky blue. They have all black, all white, all pink, and light green ones. They don't have any of the Bluetooth ones, and the metal one is the equivalent of $475usd which I'm not doing. But at $64 that's cheap tonuse to mod or just to mix up looks with outfits.

[@LeeePowers]

Im briefly visiting Seiko. Bought 5 of these 💩s in 3 days. Almost hooked. 4 metal and the "Gamer" edition. Metal/tan,metal/green,black metal on black nylon,and stainless/black resin. These are a welcome break from my "Big Seiko"(221g) which I daily.

[@SingleTrackMined]

Great video as always. Amazing if you're into the RO style. My 5610 is fancy enough for what I want in a GShock tho. 🙂

I love the GAb2100 but really want one with the blue strap like in this video. I am put off by the extra size and weight of the SKXmod kit though.

Well, it is an homage, but a tongue in cheek one. Now we need a Tiffany dial.

Sorry, the original metal Casio oak just looks more refined imho

[@BraveBeaters]

The original one is not bad either, agree :)

Yeah I like the Industrial Look of the Mod Case over the Factory one

Awesome video, where did you get the orange strap from? Most of the ones I find dont fit the standard GM2100 without mod case

Good video but please raise the volume of your audio next time. I had to put my volume all the way to max and then boost it with additional software. FYI I am on a laptop and not a phone.

Mod looks great but I think they can really do without the fake side crown

[@tiagodvt]

The fake crown kills it for me. There are mod kits out there without it.

[@douglaswheeler4712]

I have modded 5 2100s, and yes, I wish there were an option for non-crown for the GM-2100, but when comparing both Casio Mod brand and SKX Mod brand side by side, I prefer the SKX Mod. There is a Vertical texturing or brushing that the Casio Mod brand doesn't have, that I like very much. Purely subjective on my part.

[@tiagodvt]

@@douglaswheeler4712 no idea, never modded them nor owned a kit. But to me the crown just looks stupid.

Another great video, just wondered where you get the funky coloured rubber straps from?

I love full metal G-shock, but the price of that new one… Oof.

[@viranidharam]

From where to buy just the rubber strap?

[@thebatman4343]

Never modded before. But this looks amazing... Any issues with water resistance when you mod like this?

[@iRDude415]

Nope, since the module itself is incased in the carbon core guard which is water proof itself. I've swam and showered with mine works flawlessly.

[@jd3455]

so shock resist is also still there?​@@iRDude415

[@gunny.highway2652]

I like the mod except for the fake crown. Is there a version without it?

[@BraveBeaters]

I don't think so. But it does not bother me when I wear it.

[@mikerinzler6969]

The gm2100 isn't carbon core tho. But the official site said it has glass fiber in it instead

[@user-zj4rz1rs7i]

It seems like you can’t mod the GMB2100D-1A, which is the whole reason I bought one 🤦‍♂️ the screws don’t come off. Don’t but one of those things

[@charlieboylol527]

Brilliant thanks

[@BalazsCzigany]

It looks like the FKM rubber strap is a harder fit on a smaller wrist, because the staring angle is the same as the angle on the case, and then is starts bending after, while the metal bracelet can break the angle of the case right away, am I right? Can I pull this FKM strap with my 6,75 inch (17cm) wrist or should I only buy the metal bracelet? Also would like to ask your opinion on what case should I go for my green dial GM. I am thinking all silver.

[@paritoshpande2786]

Hi. Can you also include how much weight does this mod add to the watch ? It would be useful info when someone wants to wear it as daily wear and any excess weight would not give a good experience.

[@BraveBeaters]

that;s useful, you are right. I will make soon another video with OAKS' and I will add the weight as well :)

[@xerge7287]

Nice review bro. I emailed them and they told me gen six is upcoming and it looks like ap offshore they sent me a sketched photo of the concept. Can i ask if it would fit and look good at my 6 1/2 in wrist? Thanks
