Removed all the writing on the black bezel, except for the Casio name and dial numbers... Also sprayed matte clear paint to give it a textured look (very subtle.)

That looks cool! Great job, always wanted to know how it looks without all the lettering. World time and illuminator could go as well - just Casio looks simple and clean imho.

I tried removing world time and illuminator, but ended up removing some of the silver on the 1st watch. Ended up returning/exchanging it. So with the 2nd, I'm not doing the same to it.

Same thing happened to me.
I used Goo Gone with Qtips and rubbed very gently.
After about twenty minutes with little progress (some of the letters were getting faint but still a long way to go) I noticed a spot where the silver was already coming off.
I started rubbing harder at that point, thinking what do I have to lose because it's already messed up.
Guess I'll be ordering another and probably leave as-is unless someone can offer good advice.

That's exactly what happened... Horiffic sight. There's no going back from this, I was lucky... I just got mine from Amazon when it happened, I returned it "defective" immediately.

I think filo had the same issue and he ended up using touch up paint.

Having just a little more fun, I took an old 24mm strap and customized it to fit....


Using the lug of the steel belt, I cut notches into the strap to fit flush with the 1200 lug...


And to finish it off, here's a hairy arm chicken thigh shot (wristie)

Damn you wolf! You are taking this to a whole new level! I love it!

I'm actually contemplating on adding an electroluminescent panel similar to the timex indiglo watches... Not sure where to start with that. Haha

I left the wr100 but I think it looks pretty cool!

Liked your idea so I threw some old leather I had laying around on mine as well.
Great idea. No modding for me yet other than the strap change though.

Very nice, clean and simple... I feel like I should get the all black?

Looking good... Nothing better then treating a $20 watch as if it was $2000.
