Presenting for sale today is my vintage 1987 G-SHOCK DW-5600C square, also known as the Speed, famously worn by Keanu Reeves in the movie Speed. This watch has undergone a thorough restoration through the esteemed G-SHOCK restoration program offered exclusively by CASIO Japan. Notably, this program was last available in the United States in 2022 for a limited time, and it has recently made a comeback, but exclusively for the Japanese market. As of now, there's no confirmation on whether this program will return to the United States. Information about the program: https://gshock.casio.com/us/restore/ Full album and Timestamp: https://imgur.com/a/Y89M8Qc **Condition Overview**: The watch has undergone a comprehensive service, including the installation of brand-new original components – a bezel, band (featuring a CASIO-branded clasp), rubber gasket, case screws, and a fresh battery. All buttons work smoothly and the light operates as originally intended (spoiler alert, it's a sorry excuse for a light!). The crystal exhibits some light scratches, but considering the age of the module, it remains in very good condition. For the true vintage enthusiasts, the caseback is a Module 691 Japan H mirrorback Type 1 – a detail that adds an extra layer of appeal to this already iconic timepiece. Additionally, the package comes with all the Japanese documentation detailing the performed restoration work. Please note, sourcing original parts for this specific model can be extremely challenging, as many listings on platforms like eBay often feature aftermarket components from various countries. While these parts are of good quality, collectors appreciate nothing more than having the authenticity of original CASIO parts. **Price**: Asking $600 or best offer, shipped within the United States. If you have a reliable transaction history, we can securely proceed with PayPal; otherwise, payment will be accepted through Zelle only. **FAQ**: **Q: Why would I buy this when I can buy a DW-5600E-1V for $50?** **A:** It's crucial to recognize that this specific watch caters not to the typical G-SHOCK consumer but rather to an individual who values and desires ownership of one of the initial vintage G-SHOCK models, marking a significant part of the brand's early history. **Q: Why the hell is it $600? That's crazy!** **A:** I am very open to offers. But, keep in mind that sourcing a DW-5600C 691 module is tricky and prices vary wildly depending on the condition and overall luck (range $75-$400). Proxy service and shipping costs to/from Japan were about $100 (they do not accept submissions from the US, a Japanese resident must submit for restoration). The restoration program cost about $100 and is due to end on February 29, 2024. Thanks for looking!
