    so an old casio dw5300 would a bezel from a dw-5725b do at a pinch ?

    I don't think it would, but I'm just guessing.

    so any one tried to trim down either a dw5600 or a gmw 5610 bezel to turn it into a dw8400 bezel ?

    whats this guy on ...

    swapping a strap ant modding a watch

    love his listing ....

    Casio F91W CUSTOM MOD ‘Mini G-Shock Style’ - Gorgeous 1 Off.
    Condition is New with tags.
    Dispatched with Royal Mail 2nd Class Large Letter.
    This is a unique custom modified one of a kind take on the famous Casio F91W world best selling watch - already a style icon in its own right the F91W has sold more units than any watch in history
    This version has been lovingly created by removing the original silicone strap (also included) but with the addition of a black slip thru one piece NATO strap on stainless steel hardware - pictured next to my G-Shock 5600 Black Out you can see the family likeness - next to the original G-Shock 5600 in the same colour scheme it truly does look just like a mini version of the original classic G-Shock
    My other custom mod F91W’s all sold same day they were listed and proved very popular indeed - I may well create a few more one off’s for resale (watch this space)
    Watch collectors the world over have F91’s in their collection and see them as a ‘must have’ watch due to their significance and 1980’s retro charm
    Complete with original box, papers & tags this one is a keeper that’s a cool every day watch - enthusiasts will give a knowing nod
