Casio G
So you don’t need to get into the hustle of setting the time manually. The Mudmaster GWG-1000 is a premium looking Casio G-Shock that is practically impervious to the harshest conditions, but asks a good price too. Personally, I like stories about watches that are worn, sometimes for years, and have the wear and tear to prove it. I like stories about watches that are used for their intended purpose. I believe that watches can be so much more than the sum of their parts.
The three new GGB100 timepieces are created with an updated Carbon Core Guard Structure and triple-layered carbon-insert bezel to offer both light weight, durability and mud resistance. We’ve all heard about water resistant watches, even magnetic-resistant watches, but mud resistant? Well, apparently, some of us need that mud resistance and the newest line up of Casio G-Shock Mudmaster watches are finally in stores now to deliver mud resistance. Having gone off roading in a lifted truck a couple of times,I can see where mud resistance could definitely come into play.
Because of its size, it’s not the most comfortable, but it does the job for what it’s meant to do. Thanks to its rugged construction, you won’t have to worry about whether or not it will hold up. im just wondering why JF versions command more of a pricepoint then its counterparts even though those are also made in japan (correct?). anyways thanks again great point on the estimated battery life. I don’t have any official figures, but I would guess it’s the GWG A3 or GWG A1. Some parts like the screws, buttons, and band keeper may be ion plated on some models.
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.
This shock-resistant carbon core guard protects the watch’s vitals to assure proper function regardless of terrain or weather conditions. Using carbon for the watch’s core saves weight and adds strength, as it has a tensile strength ten times that of iron and yet weighs far less. The carbon case also allowed Casio designers to develop a new structure of shock-resistant button.
I’m sure, too, that a few mud wrestlers out there would find the new Premium Carbon Core Guard structure in the Mudmaster case helpful if they’re down in the mud and need to check how many more seconds they have to get up. Speaking of the g shock protection barometer, it does more than just warn about the weather. The digital pressure sensor registers differences in air pressure and using the barometer position, you can see the pressure trend and the air pressure presented on the screen.
The traditional resin case found on most G-SHOCK timepieces was retooled into a new shock-resistant carbon core guard structure which integrates the case. An external structure capitalizes on its toughness and lightness. These two traits are further reinforced here by carbon fiber in the bezel, providing a light weight strengthening that allows the watch to be even more resistant to damage without adding a significant amount of weight. This G-Shock Mudmaster by Casio watch is intricately designed for the kind of men who are made for the mud and whose daily lifestyle involves getting down in the dirt. The band on this GShock watch showcases analog and digital features and is made of resilient resin for optimum comfort and tough durability.
The lower-left button on the left opens the list of the features on the watch’s LED strip, which you can access or customize with the help of upper-left button. The list of features includes timer, stopwatch, alarm, atmospheric pressure, temperature, etc. The thermometer g shock protection can give readings in either Celsius or Fahrenheit. The watch’s dial is illuminated by a LED light and is protected by a sapphire crystal, which as per Casio cannot be scratched. It also ensures high visibility under virtually any conditions imaginable.
New and old G-Shocks So after the Seiko, I went back to a G-Shock. I spent a lot of time trying to find one I liked, the model range is extensive and I really want one with hands that were easy to read. Casio seems to go through models like water down a drain and every watch I liked was no longer available.
There are some cases where they do not charge much of a premium. The GWG-1000GB-1A adds a luxurious touch to the Mudmaster’s appearance by using a gold color for the ring dial, buttons, buckle, and band keeper. This model will also be released in the USA as the GWG1000GB-1A.
