Do you know any strap adapters that work with the 5500? My brother has owned the camo version for a few years now and the strap is starting to tear. A nylon would be perfect.

For Cesar.

I put on the strap adapters with 24mm zulu and you can see gaps.
The bezel screws stand out.
But it can work as you can see.
Just saw this. Thanks, Dave.

Are those the same strap adapters that I see all over eBay? They're not model-specific?

Yup! The same as what Maratac/BroadArrow sells on their web.
The sell on ebay too.

They list it on their web as:

Casio G-Shock Watch Adapter

Allows Casio G-Shock watches to be used with 22mm and 24mm Zulu straps. Note: May not work with the 4 Ring Zulu NATO style, depending on your watch. Check fit. 24mm 4 Ring has a wider gap and works with most watch heads. Will NOT work with MIL-SERIES NATO as there is not enough gap to fit the watch head. The CASIO adaptor will not work with two-piece straps. Only one piece straps.

Works with Casio DW5000, DW5200, DW5300, DW5600, DW5300CV, DW6100, DW6200, DW6500, DW6900, G-2500, G-8900, Frogman and many other Casios that feature 16mm lug width.

Note: Also works with Garmin Foretrex 301/401


I've used it also on my Frogman's.

They look great, David. I need to try a 5500.
