Just arrived! It looked so nice with some of the other black and bronze things I own, I couldn't help but snap a picture.
Emissar D4K, Lume X1 Boost Driver, NTG35s 5000k. Stainless bezel, bronze PVD on all the stainless bits. Metal button with RGB.
It's a stunner, and I absolutely love it!
Such a rare thing. I'll often have 1-4 that don't sync.

Good day all! Up for sale is an OG Benchmade Bugout 535. The 535 was my second Benchmade, bought brand new in 2019. I added the Rockscale Designs titanium Critter scales and carried it a couple of times, then packed it away.
Benchmade 535:
• Edge Condition: I had a professional sharpen it to clean up Benchmade's typical bad grind. It's very sharp. I've never cut anything with it.
• I am its only owner.
• Centering is perfect.
• There are some snail trails on the sandblasted titanium scales. It rode in my pocket a few times and I put it away out of fear of losing it! It was my first bougie knife *blush*
• Box and paperwork are included, as well as a new pocket clip set from Benchmade.
• Rockscale Designs titanium Critter scales added. It also includes(not pictured) the stock blue plastic scales.
• I disassembled it to add the scales. It flies open, drops shut, has zero discernible blade play and makes a satisfying metallic sound on opening. Beautiful knife.

This is the current G Shock lineup, including the wife's Baby Gs and a guest appearance by my Royale...which will eventually be modded heavily!
The million dollar question: do we, or don't we, love the red and black combo on the 5000U? I kinda dig it, and I kinda like it being subtle. Tell me your opinion please!
I purchased the red and black Combi V2 and bezel from a GWB, and a GW-M5610U-1CJF from my dear friend north of the border, u/pizzasplice . Those bits arrived today and led to an absolute cascade of parts-swapping between several different watches. The end result was this group. No G Shocks were harmed in the making of this photo.
I just got my GW5000U a few weeks ago, and have been absolutely loving it. I decided I wanted a negative display in the same line, as I've done with the 5610, 6900, -100 and GWX series'. I decided the HS was the one for me, and it arrived today! Here it is, fresh out of the mailbox.
