The name Casio uses is X-Large Combi which is to refers to its large size and combination of digital and analog. In this article, we are reviewing and looking closer at this watch from Casio, so without further ado, let’s dig in.

Although we try to make sure that products are dispatched within 2 working days. Delivery of large items can take more time due the size and nature of the product. Needless to say, the No.1 character that drives users to the G Shock watches is their superb toughness. In order to protect it from accidental hits and bumps, Casio covered it with a prominent urethane bezel that can absorb external forces.
Keep in mind this is all a matter of degree, not necessarily major issues. It’s entirely up to the buyer/owner to assess and prioritize. I think the GA-100-1A1 is a good looking and durable watch. Just be aware that the negative LCDs are hard to read in many types of light. These watches are designed and engineered to deliver outstanding shock resistance and water resistance, as well as anti-magnetism.

When I was visiting with Casio at their rather massive room at Baselworld 2010, it was almost an overwhelming, colorful adventure of Casiotopia. The G-Shock area was probably the most interesting to me because those Japanese designers frequently have something stimulation each year that you don’t expect.
If you know the distance, you will know the speed in your watch. The watch case is actually about 51mm wide, but you’d never know that wearing it. Large contrast color pushers are easy to find and press, and the style of the strap is actually press nice. The resin materials the case is make out of are better than usual. There is a soft, satin feeling to the plastic which is a step above what you might have been used to in the past.
My fav is the white and purple , and there is a CAT tractor looking yellow and block style. In Japan, there will be even more styles if you feel like seeing what is available overseas. Overall a great new G-Shock collection, especially for people who wouldn’t normally consider a digital watch. While the GA100 X-Large Combi is not without its minor issues, it is an enjoy experience, and a good looking watch that is bound to lift your style just a little bit.
