I like dual keepers. Especially of different materials because that, normally, means different textures and, thus, is a simple way to make more interesting that hidden area of a watch.
I tried to put a spare SS keeper (from a Gulfmaster) on the GWG-2000's band, but even though,it has the same dimensions as the GWG-2000's resin keeper, it didn't fit. The GWG-2000's bands are very thick and while the resin keeper will "give" a little bit, the SS one, won't.
So, I used an O-ring (#13; 7/8" O.D).:

There are green O-rings but I think the black O-ring looks ok against the green band.
Once Carbon Fiber straps from CASIO become available, I'll install them on the GWG-2K. That way, the material upgrade will be complete:

- Bezel: CF + SS
- Case: Carbon Core Guard
- Bands: CF
- Crystal: The crystal is already Sapphire, of course

No probs, I have the dc and MH for the 1k, so swap about. Actually might get another 1k(want the black) and for the MH bezel and strap on. This is the 1k with mh strap(I leave the dc one on as it looks better , matches the mode hand. The MH is a bit naff as dark green and not very noticeable )

There is one on Ebay and I'm pretty sure your picture just totally convinced me that is bad ass 100% ... not in love with what they want for the strap but that looks amazing !No probs, I have the dc and MH for the 1k, so swap about.

Yes you would best be referred to as a 4k-er ... although at some point the last variable option will start to wonder what the hell ? And want you to become the even more rarer 6k-erer....Pac parts your side or tiktox uk, they ship US and Canada.

Double 2k so far, is that a 4K?

Many thanks mate on the offer. I know pac doesnt carry the straps oddly enough for the 2 models I actually am pondering but I'll check out your recommend.

Here are my two 1000s. I've owned others but these are the two that remain. 😁

Not a gwg100 but a gg1000 and same size, the gwg2000 is a larger watch , but at 16.1mm thick, a tad slimmer .
The 2k does wear smaller for me than the size specs
read. It’s roughly the same size as the gwg1k except 1.9mm slimmer, the gwg1000 is larger of course than the gg1000 and gwg100.
My wrist is a fraction over 7.5, this gg1000 is same size as the gwg100

Hey, does anyone know if the sand beige strap is a limited edition? It seems to be selling for a hefty premium over list. Or is it just the model everyone wants right now? (I know it's my favorite.) Thanks.

No it’s not,it’s 1 of 3 released. The limited edition has blue features iirc. All it could be is simply maybe selling quicker(more popular ) than the others. All have an rrp of £699 in UK
Stealth
Desert sand
Military green
Nothing is special or limited.👍🏻

Me to and it could sway me. But I won’t pay more than £200 max over rrp for a different band colour and details(that’s me though). Nice burton one to wouldn’t go a miss 😁

I know the Casio US site has it listed as a LE. Noticed as I was placing my order.

I've been very keen on the sand 2000 since I first saw the 3 new models released. Sakura Watches had by far the best price I've seen and I put in a 'Send Request' thing where you give your email and they notify you when in stock. That was around October 8 or 10. I read somewhere about Oct 15 release date, so I kept regularly checking their site from that day onwards; I'm talking multiple refreshes a day. Never saw any change in status of the sand watch (always just 'pre-order'), while the other 2 were in stock, then out, then back in.
I emailed them about a week ago and they said they don't have it, aren't getting it and it's discontinued. I asked if he was sure we're talking about same watch - how could it be discontinued 12 days after official release date. I think he may have his terminology or status mixed up but he was insistent they aren't getting any of the sand model. I didn't want to take any chances that he was mixed up, so went elsewhere, paid a bit more on eBay but will be getting it in a few days (currently in transit).

That's Sakura's lazy way of saying they ain't getting it back in stock, lol.
