It is the only smaller “mid-size” G-Shock (48.6 millimeters wide) with a third analog hand to display the second (a feature usually reserved for higher-end models). It is also one of the few mid-size analog G-Shocks with a front-facing light button for easy access. This watch also has a one-press stopwatch button that will activate the stopwatch immediately from timekeeping mode and a 120-record lap time memory that includes the date and time.
The full metal band of this G-Shock is flexible and comfortable. Casio G-Shock watches are revered as the strongest, most durable watches in the industry. They are not only insanely water-resistant and shock-resistant, right out of the box, they also come with a huge range of features that you can use out in the field, or even on a camping trip.
Though this list originally excluded Japan-only models, the GW JF deserves a place on it because of its well-deserved status and popularity around the world. Also, it is not a limited edition but a regularly produced model in Japan, so it is not hard to find and purchase for a reasonable price. The outer face design has a cleaner, more subdued style, and the updated modern features include Tough Solar power and Multi-Band 6 automatic radio timekeeping.
For any G-SHOCK models utilizing Tough Solar technology, replacing the battery is actually therefore something of the past. They done by actually submerges the watch in water to make sure their water resistance. Sending them to water pressure corresponding to that at depths of 200 meters verifies but not only their water resistance abilities but also their resistance to extremely high pressure.
After two years and over 200 prototypes, the team finally released the first G Shock watch model DW-5000C in April 1983. GWN-1000 is one of my favorite watches (as it’s the most affordable Tough Solar analog-digital G-Shock with Triple Sensor), but it’s more expensive now and harder to find than it used to be in the U.S. GWN-Q1000 with depth sensor is also nice but is only sold in Japan now. I am looking at GWB5600BL-1, GA100BL-1A, GAS100G-1A. Which has the most features he would need?
This gives the watch a tough tactical look combined with its green-tinted reverse LCD display and all-black body. This watch features an adjustable “flash alert” with LED light and buzzer for the alarms, hourly time signal, and countdown timer. Other unique features are the multi-time function that will display the time for 4 different cities and a low battery warning. Solar should be okay indoors, especially if it’s an all-digital model.
This will certainly stand out from the crowd, no matter where you hang out. There is also a tide graph and moon age graph, which are helpful for those spending time on the water. The only downside of this G-Shock watch is that although it is a “black-out” style watch, it is super hard to read in the dark, and is still highly reflective because of the glass. However, if you just want that cool dark look, then this is the way to go. Bright backlight, 29 time zones , daylight saving on/off, 1/100 second stopwatch, countdown timerfour alarms, hourly signal, auto calendar and 12/24 hour time. Very satisfied with the whole transaction, the diamond g-shock looks great, very icy on the case.
If the charge level drops to “Medium,” putting it close to a desk light or next to a window for a while will help. It is possible to change the battery as long as it is the same rechargeable type. I wear a GWM5600A-3 that is over 8 years old and I haven’t had to change the battery yet, and I don’t make any conscious effort to keep the watch charged or spend much time outdoors . Can you please give me a recomendation regarding a functionable watch i can use.
The AWG-M100B-1A and GBA-800-1A are considered “mid-size” models that are more like the smaller G-Shock watches from the 1980s-2000s. The GA-110MB-1A is more of a large size (although it doesn’t really seem that large now in 2019) and the GAW-100B-1A is the largest model of the four and I would consider it an extra-large size. I like g-shock mudmaster design and simplicity but it amounts two fold expensive. I think G-Shock GW-9400 has more features with sunset/rise tracking and cold resistance and et cetera. The GPR B1000´ s side bumpers are not reliable, sapphire cracks after a strong blow, mineral won´ t, no time stamp, no dedicated button to the stopwatch, and a nightmare to operate at night. I’ve never had a real watch, something good and which i’ll care, so this will be my very first one and g shock.
