Looks Like My G-Steel Died Again

submitted by TheBigGuyFromQueens to Wristwatches 4 monthsDec 28, 2024 13:58:41 ago (+6/-1)     (Wristwatches)

I have had it 4 or 4.5 years and this is the 2nd time this has happened. It is sufficiently charged, but will not pair with my phone or do anything at all.

I love the toughness of the case and bracelet and the functions like backlighting, but overall this watch has been quirky and disappointing.

Meanwhile, someone has found an 60 year-old automatic Longines or Hamilton in their dead uncle’s junk drawer and shook it twice and it’s working.

have you tried loosening it up by putting it in the microwave for 3.14 minutes?

No, if you have a more powerful microwave, you can do it for 1.21 mins to achieve the required 1.21 gigawatts, it has to be at least a 1 gigawatt mwave though.

Ymw.

You can only get a niggerwatt that doesn't work in Coontown, We're safe my lord.

Those dont seem to have much LCD real estate. What information/activity do you get outta pairing it with your phone?

Can you just buy the guts from Ebay and replace it?

Pairing it is how you set the time. Something is wrong with it because it will not backlight or do anything anymore let alone sync.

Bro, I read that as G-String as I scrolled past it twice today thinking Oh, BigGuy is shitposting again.

What’s your thoughts on Dolce & Gabbana Pour Homme? Been using it sparingly for the last two decades.
