With that said, it is a rather large watch, as to be expected from a watch made for the outdoors. Obviously, this isn’t a watch that you wear with your suit, and it is also relatively heavy compared to many other G-Shocks, weighing in at about 120 grams. For those who want to take the toughness of the G-Shock one step further, Casio has developed the Mudmaster range within the G-Shock collection. These are made to be amongst the toughest watches you’ll be able to find. Really, the name ”Mudmaster” gives it away for what it is all about. This is the ultimate outdoor watch that will handle virtually any situation you subject it to.
The Calorimeter measures altitude and step count to calculate the calories consumed on a long stalk. This watch has sooo many features and it fits just like my other watch, just note that this watch is big. Awesome piece of technology and overall exceptional looks and ruggedness! Love the features, it’s, you have several unique options at the push of a button.
For battery-powered models, it may mean a shorter battery life, but this seems to be something that is factored into the estimated battery life specs. i have ordered a GWG1000-1A3 for about $450 and the other color are cheaper. I have read in one of the answers that few models are ion plated.
Most of the functions are using the GPS on your phone and extend the quad sensor functions built-in to the watch. The app also helps to log the data you are collecting and display it in an easier to see way. The Bezel has an alternating black protection with the carbon gray pattern on the bezel itself. They have also added some nice red accents on the Mudmaster label as well as around the top indicator and the second hard, which is tipped with lume.
In addition, Twin Sensor capabilities provide instant access to direction and temperature information when needed under tough conditions. The face of the watch is marked with large Arabian numerals at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o’clock for easy reading. The face is illuminated by a Super Illuminator, high-brightness auto LED light to ensure high visibility under virtually any conditions imaginable. The MUDMASTER’S iconic cylindrical button structure was designed to limit debris from entering the watch, and its textured band and large buttons ensure ease of use and high visibility.
