better than a grade C, not quite as good as a grade A however.

Out of interest which knes are good savings? Those rrp' s are a joke, about 50% more than those watches actually sell for (for the 5 that I checked) so in most cases they are more expensive than new or very small savings for the risk.
Edit:
Never mind, found some of the mid range ones are a good price.

Some good prices and some crazy prices. Meanwhile Gshock are getting more and more expensive.

What's the point of a watch without hours and minutes?

Great prices, wonder what a "grade B" is like condition wise.

Its great you found your answers - It would be really helpful if you could share your findings here.
I'm sure others had the same question, and would benefit from your knowledge.

g shock prices are between £30 and £50. Anyone who believes the rrp or pay more for them is crazy

I'm a massive G-shock fan, especially the Master of G range. The prices on this site are actually very competitive if Grade B is actually just packaging damage. I'm tempted to purchase a couple. Didn't even know Casio had an G-shock Outlet, would have used them previously

I've had a lot of these watches cheaper, brand new, from Amazon.
Hassann to mikeyfive

I assume you're referring to the lower end ones (GA100)? These are more expensive than Amazon that's correct. The high end ones are very competitive.

the MTG range are a bargain! I have two already, would love a third...
Hassann to liajy
11 Jun 17#22
Exactly what I was thinking! Half price is a massive reduction considering these are well over a grand each!! I am tempted to get the £550 one (silver and blue) but that gold and black looks awesome and I believe they're very rare too.
The Frogman at £400 and GPW1000 at £425 are a steal too. Already have a GPW and GWG. Yet to purchase a Frogman though...

Thanks OP Heat++
Big G Shock and Edifice fan. No idea Casio had an outlet site. Agree some of the prices are > new.
I Need a replacement for my Tough Solar G-Shock (Resin) waveceptor. Are there any resin / metal units on the side that provide 1) Solar 2) Waveceptor? Could not find an easy way to search by feature on the site?
Hassann
11 Jun 17#25
I'd go MTG all the way mate. These are solar, GPS, radio controlled all rolled into one. They're expensive but half the original price. Do a quick search and you'll see how much cheaper these are than competitors

Cool thanks I'll take a look not up on the MTG range - they do look nice
I had a quick look searched on MTG and sorted the results by price they had a "cheap" one for £440 which is about £200 LESS than I can find on line. Looked at the specs it is sapphire glass like the model I've seen for sale only in Japan. Very nice watch for the price. I think a basic G-shock with solar and wave ceptor would be fine as I need one for when I'm not at work.My last (only) G-Shock is about 12 years old replace the Panasonic cell about 2 years ago all working but last week the bezel came apart (resin aged) new bezel is £10 but Casio do not have it in stock in the UK. "RE: GW-300U watch. Casio advised that both the black bezel part and the silver light button are now obsolete and no longer available."
I've set camelcamelcamel price alters on a couple of models I like. So will wait for another deal...

Why don't you go to the Edifice section of the outlet site? Maybe that will suit your needs better? They have atomic and solar on them too at a fraction of the cost of the MTG range. I was on the verge of pulling the trigger on the gold MTG (£725) but someone beat me to it. The silver and blue MTG looks increasingly appealing at £550. Bargain compared to the £1000+ prices I'm seeing online.

Thanks had a look just now. As you say the stock is going fast all the >£750 watches now gone!. Perhaps folk outside the UK are making the most of the weak pound, or UK based folk are getting items now as new stock will cost more. Stock moving fast..

Hi all, did anyone receive their watch from this site? Any issues/complaints to report? Did the watch come in brand new condition with all the protective plastic still attached? Many thanks, Hassan

I ordered the Casio G-SHOCK MTG-G1000D-1A2ER which arrived today, wasn't expecting it for a few days, glad I didn't pay the £10 extra for next day delivery now! first impressions.........I LOVE it! I thought it may be a bit big for my liking but it's fine, just need to get a few links taken out of the strap. it came in the G-shock box but no manual or warranty card which I presume the warranty is through Casio direct so not too fussed. Neither about the manual I don't think I've ever read one yet! pretty much self explanatory what to do but it may help that I've owned a similar watch before? What did you order?

I ordered the same watch on Monday and received mine today too, I was thinking the exact same thing about having saved £10 on express delivery. Unfortunately mine came in appalling condition. The packing was okay and all items were present. However the watch had no protective film, looked like it had been worn with dust in the crevices etc and had scratches on multiple parts of the bracelet and buckle!!! The screen had smears all over it. I called them and explained the condition, they were surprised by the condition and reassured me it should have been immaculate and only the packaging should have been defective. The watch is being collected tomorrow and they're doing a priority shipping for delivery Friday. I shall update you on how I get on. The watch itself is a work of art, nice weight and size.

The watch hadn't even been placed properly on the pillow, it had slid off and was just falling around everywhere in the box. I forgot to ask... Did the watch have the original protective plastic film on it that you peel off?
Endgame
28 Jun 17#35
When you say all items were present did you get the warranty card and manual? I just received the watch in the box? Mine also didn't come with the protective film which I was a little surprised about but it was in A1 condition so wasn't too fussed
Hassann
28 Jun 17#36
Yes everything was present, a black cardboard box containing a thick manual, warranty card in a plastic wallet etc. Only thing missing was the tag that comes attached to the watch buckle on a peice of string. You're very lucky then that yours was in immaculate condition, if you seen the condition mine was in you'd have been very disappointed. It was scratches everywhere! Quite major ones too along with minor ones. I just hope the one I receive on Friday comes in immaculate condition as it's the last one they have in stock!!
Endgame
28 Jun 17#37
I'd best give them a call myself then as I will require the warranty card if nothing else! who did you call could you give me a number or is it just Casio UK? Hope you get sorted on Friday let me know how you get on
Hassann
29 Jun 17#38
I'll pass you their number in the morning mate. With regards to the warranty card you won't need it, all the ones I have for my other G's are useless anyway. When you wake a claim they'll just ask you when you purchased it, from what retailer and proof of purchase. You won't ever need the card. Considering ours is from Casio, there will be no issues at all in relation to warranty as you'll already be on the system.
Hassann
29 Jun 17#39
Thanks mate, I will let you know how I get on. I just hope the replacement is good as I really want the watch and nowhere else comes close in terms of price!
