With all the goods you’ll need to dive in any conditions, the Frogman is the rare dive-oriented G-SHOCK. It’s not a dive computer, however, and shouldn’t be confused with one. It is, however, rich in dive style, with a range of limited editions and colorways. These watches feature Blutotooth connectivity that allows the nerdiest of workout analysis. These models are identical to the surfing editions, and also released in 1996.

Better yet, let’s call it the introductory series to other more advanced timepieces that Casio offers. The Casio G-Squad Pro GSW-H1000 comes in red, black and blue colors and will cost $700 in the US and £600 in the UK. It’s set to arrive in mid-May, though it’s yet to appear on the US G-Shock website. However, you can find it on the UK site and request to be notified when it arrives. The $700 G-Squad GSW-H1000 lineup has numerous sensors and a rugged design.

In truth, the GSW-H1000 isn’t all that different to Casio’s prior Pro Trek Wear OS watches. The focus is more on fitness than hiking this time around, but the physical proportions are similar and you still get the compass, altitude sensor, barometer, and GPS connectivity. It’s Casio’s first truly smart G-Shock watch — unless you count some earlier models with limited Bluetooth functionality — and it’s available now for $699. That’s a high price for any smartwatch, and this one struggles to justify it.

Thankfully, Casio seems to provide a steady supply of these less expensive models, so you can readily snag one. Let’s contemplate the following two G-Shocks, just to get a sense of the breadth available. The first is the $380 Mudmaster from the Master of G series, an enormous battle-ready analog/digital hybrid badass with more capability than your smartphone.

After repeated production of over 200 prototypes and the devotion of over two long years to the effort, G-SHOCK’s core technology, a shock-resistant structure, was completed. Casio G-Shock has proved to be one of the most lucrative lines for Casio’s watch business unit. Kikuo Ibe is the man behind the wildly popular watch, who drummed up the idea of a durable yet affordable watch back in the 1980s, because he broke the valuable timepiece that his father passed on to him. He becomes the Casio’s chief engineer of module development at its timepiece division today.

The only gripe here is that this line has weak low light capabilities, which is a let-down considering their convenient positioning of the LED light button. Looks great, good price, goes with everything and I always know what time it is. The fit is always great and I love the outside light button feature on this new model. RedDeerWatches.com offers almost half a thousand of models of Casio G-Shock watches for sale.

Only downside I have found is the light when used at night is only good enough to see the time. So make sure you set your alarm prior to the darkness if you are out camping. Today more than two decades later, G-Shock watches have exceeded the designers’ original benchmark and pushed the limits of what a watch can endure.

The solar-powered watch has 27 time zones, Mobile Link Wireless via Bluetooth, time calibration signal reception, LED light, titanium bits, and battery level indicator. Based on the prominent GA series, this timepiece is a combination of analog and digital. It inherits the beefy case designs from the retro GA-100 and is inspired by ‘90s stereos and portable music players. The 200-meter water-resistant timepiece with a resin case and bezel is shock-resistant, utilizes mineral glass to protect the face, and is ISO 764 Class magnetic resistant.
