With its extensive qualities and a classy outlook, the twin sensor watch enables you to access directions and temperature even under rough surfaces. For Anderson, all of these features combine to make a watch that’s incredibly useful when fighting wildfires. The digital and analog faces make it easy to read, even in a haze of smoke. After all, staying one step ahead of the blaze is essential for completing the mission. New reworked Mud Resist buttons are also used throughout for improved resistance to the elements. Other features include a radio wave timekeeping, digital compass, barometer, altimeter, thermometer, world time, stopwatch, countdown and five independent alarms.
CasioThen, drawing inspiration from the petrol tanks seen on offroad vehicles that traverse tough trails, Casio designers created a special dual-layered case that provides enhanced protection from mud, dust, and moisture. This case features an airtight stainless-steel panel back as well as a shock-resistant fine-resin fiberglass back. The new G-SHOCK GWG-1000 was designed for deserts, mud, and other tough environments, and it is packed with features that deliver the toughness needed for use in harsh land environments. G-SHOCK was born from a simple idea — a watch should not break when dropped. Back in 1983, the original square-shaped DW-5000C was created after Kikuo Ibe witnessed a child bouncing a rubber ball.
Long press on another button and the watch logs a position on the map, which you can then use the second hand on the watch as an indicator to guide you back. Casio’s G-Shock Rangeman offers all this and plenty more, but feels like a very serious outdoors watch. The Mudmaster takes the key features, makes them easier to use, and will appeal to anyone who enjoys a weekend hike for a few hours, and likes to add a little tech into it. No 55.4mm-wide, 53.1mm-long, and 19.3mm-thick watch will be as comfortable as the Mudmaster GG-B100.
Shock resistant, water resistant, and mud and dust resistant too, there’s little that will damage it. It means even if I don’t live the lifestyle that demands such a tough watch, it won’t be phased by everyday knocks and accidents. In black, the Mudmaster GG-B100 g shock protection has a stealthy style and arguably the best looking of the three new models. A classic military green and black model is also available, along with a striking orange and black version. The Mudmaster has been designed to withstand the toughest of conditions.
It struck him that a watch floating within a rubber case would be impervious to shocks. After a bunch of testing and design with toughness in mind, the brand was born. Nearly 35 years and hundreds of models later, G-SHOCK is still best known for being some of the toughest, hard-wearing watches that money can buy.
The MUDMASTER watch arrives in a bright yellow with black accents and military green with black accents. 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.
It easily survived the bumpy ride, being totally submerged in mud, an encounter with a hostile local, and an ATV that seemed to catch fire briefly. Of course, that’s a fraction of what the Mudmaster is built to withstand and just a small piece of the performance it promises, and the GGB100 packs new durability features and tech at a characteristically approachable price. For 2019, the new flagship Casio G-Shock watch in the $300-$400 USD range is the Mudmaster GG-B100 model family. It consists of a few color variations, with this mostly black-toned reference GGB100-1A being the version I reviewed.
