I’m picky when it comes to the ana-digi watch dials I like, and I think Casio did an excellent job here. The “negative-colored” LCD screen is large with clear pixels and offers snappy performance. The analog hands help when needed but are mostly there for performing an ancillary function while allowing you to still know the current time. Casio’s state of the art screen and ultra-lightweight carbon hands means that you never feel as though there is a compromise between functionality and style. The funny thing about this watch, is that Casio doesn’t advertise the temperature selection on its wheel of functions.
It takes its name from the Mud Resist system of gaskets in the pipes that keep mud and dust out of the watch. While mundane to some, this feature would be paramount to someone who might be on a trail during or after a rain. If you’re not going over the bars, you’ll be hauling your bike at some point, loading into your Honda Element, or making repairs to it. All these things are typically avoided by people in the watch community while wearing a watch. You’re going to encounter dirt or mud in this sport, and Lord knows you might want to sell a watch down the road which is nearly impossible if it’s beaten all to hell.
The watch’s features are controlled by a set of four quite substantial pushers that protrude from the MUDMASTER’s case, but are still well protected. This is just one of the many benefits of the carbon fiber-based frame. There’s little chance of a button being dislodged, even under the most severe impact. Casio’s G-Shock line of affordable, durable and all-around everything-resistant watches has been going strong for the better part of half a century. G-Shock watches are well-built, durable, and stylish in a do-everything, take-no-prisoners, vintage kind of way.

I’ve known my friend, Nathan, for the better part of ten years, and for about the last six, he’s been an avid mountain biker, pillar of the biking community in our area, and all-around good dude. We met while working at a Sears Auto Center back in the days when that existed. I was still sporting Invictas back then and thinking I was the Boss Hogg of the local watch community. We bonded over our love of motorsport, our hatred of Sears, existentialism, and, of course, watches. Personally, I like stories about watches that are worn, sometimes for years, and have the wear and tear to prove it.
