Wish the digital display was a little brighter while wearing it inside but overall I’m happy with the great look of the watch. I was looking for an atomic timekeeping watch, in the description, this is not. However, after I corrected the time, it’s dead-on accurate. I really like that it’s entirely black except for the hands, makes it super easy to read at a glance.
Ideally, replacing a gasket would be beneficial, so if you can locate one – buy it and replace it while you have the watch open. For this model it is a simple O-ring gasket, which is placed into a circular groove in the case. I have replaced batteries without swapping the gasket and water resistance remained sufficient for the regular swimming and use.
I quickly fell in love with the Atomic / Solar of this watch. Here I am one year later, and I bought the famed GW 5000. The funny thing is, the GW-M530A is just as useful if not more useful due to the second time zone on the same screen. This model is often overlooked because it doesn’t look “cool”, but in all other ways, it just works. I wear it doing everything because I’m not afraid to make it any uglier.
This watch is both anti-magnetic and shock-resistant, much of which is contributed by its robust case construction. The sides of the case have ”bumpers” which also work as a protection for the pushers in order to improve their shock-resistance. Thanks to its resin construction, it can handle shocks very well and also be subject to dirt, mud, and other harsh conditions, and simply be rinsed underwater and look just like new. The Casio G-Shock GA-100 ”X-Large Combi is a G-Shock version that stays true to the ethos and concept of this lineup but presents it with slight design tweaks.

Why do you suppose Casio bothered to lume the dial spots but NOT the hands? It then has to be asked, how did the Navy read a watch on the bridge at night before EL? I suspect they got along with some other workaround for quite a few centuries. We have only been using wrist watches since WWI and with the abolition of radium in the 60’s some other method had to be improvised. Having a positive display does make it more easy to read them but heightens the contrast in the background and makes the hands and markers less legible.
The G-Shock GA100-1A1 lives up to the Casio reputation for excellence in so many ways, including its considerable 55 x 51.2 x 16.9mm size and water resistance up to 200 metres. In addition to this, the watch has all of the standard functions that you expect in a G-Shock which are calendar, timer, daily alarms , countdown timer, world time, auto LED, split times, and chiming features. Two functions that are not present, however, which you usually find in more expensive alternatives are solar technology and atomic clock radio synchronizing. The watch has a water-resistance of 200m/660 feet which is essentially standard for G-Shocks. In practice, the means you can go swimming or diving with this watch and it won’t break a sweat. The pushers for the functions of the watch are positioned on its sides, and with their large size and protruding design, they are relatively easy to operate.
The matte black body adds much to the watch’s sturdy look and makes it suitable with users of almost any age. Literally, it can fit in well with most casual apparels. Living up to G-Shock’s reputation for big case designs, comes a revolution in case size with the introduction of the X-Large GA100-1A1. This Ana-Digi, “three-eyed” monster measure in at a whopping 55 x 51.2 x 16.9mm size, with an attention to detail, that is second to none.
