Men’s Rangeman Triple Sensor Black Watch
The basic black coloring of this model further enhances the rough and tough look of the resin material and the MASTER OF G design. Base model is the RANGEMAN GW9400 with a time stamp feature that lets you record the current time in memory with the touch of a button. I really enjoy the look of this watch as I wanted to get the green one but as I read the reviews that you could not see the face due to the black color, I opted for the black watch instead. The anodized red looks sharp and the ease of use is great whether you are changing world time while traveling or getting updated time from the atomic timekeeping.
They are almost always named with a “man” suffix after the initial Frogman model which itself was named for scuba divers. Three models, the Mudman, Gaussman, Raysman and Rangeman all feature a thick rubber outer layer that surrounds the buttons and case completely, ensuring that they offer mud-resistance. The Master of G watches ceased production in 2000, but there were signs Casio was keen to keep the range alive, not just with limited edition releases but with re-designs of some of the old models. The GW-9400 is water resistant , mud resistant , shock resistant, and quite possibly kid resistant. For a solar powered “ABC” watch with a ton of features that can stand up to the abuse the Rangeman can and still look great, I think the price is a steal. I have been threw a number of casios but find this one to the be the best for the cost.

The company rose to popularity quickly after releasing its first-ever product, a cigarette holder, which proved to be a huge success. Casio became involved in electronics in 1954 when they released Japan’s first electro-mechanical calculator. Maybe it would work for following a route in a helicopter, but even that could only be an approximation.
Having a barometer on your wrist means that you’re much less likely to get caught in the rain when you’re out hiking or whatever it is you people do outside. Before the days of weathermen and weather apps, we had to figure out ourselves if it was going to rain. One thing we realized is that when the air pressure dropped, a storm was likely on its way. Further, I prefer the resin strap keeper, not so happy with the steel versions. The GW-9400 Rangeman is the quintessential modern Casio G-Shock watch and has arguably replaced the Frogman as the most desirable all-digital G-Shock.
Now with my watch if I take off the watch and take a temperature reading, it will read lower than the actual temperature but is usually accurate +/- 2°C on my wrist with the occasional calibration. Solar Power Capability – The cool thing about G-Shocks in general is that most of the models require no battery change or charge ever. It has a solid, solar power capability, which means you can get lost in an island and still get to use the Rangeman watch without fear baby g shock of its battery dying.

In the short time since the GA2100 launched, it’s already seen quite a few variations, and the design has shown a classic G-Shock ability to take on new color combos. Master of G series watches are invariably amongst the largest G-Shock designs Casio produces, usually suited for those with larger wrists.
