Just as rumors have been floating about a possible rugged Apple Watch, Casio has unveiled its first G-Shock rugged smartwatch using Google’s Wear OS platform. The GSW-H1000, part of Casio’s rugged G-Squad Pro lineup, has a host of sports features and is also the first G-Shock watch with a color display. The color of black and grey is more accurately described as a dark grey and light grey.
Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. Please refer to the FAQ link below to resolve problems such as being unable to connect or operate the watch. The G-SHOCK Connected app also simplifies certain watch operations by letting you perform them on your phone screen.
GA700BMC-1A $ 99.00 $ 99.00 $ 79.20 $ 79.20 G-SHOCK announces new models decorated with colors that recall modern Tokyo street scenes. A stainless steel collection g shock protection made for men who are active, stylish and enjoy the look and feel of metal. Feldmar Watch Company is proud to be an authorized G-SHOCK timepiece retailer.
In April of 1983, the G-SHOCK DW-5000C was unveiled, and a TV news station tested out the watch live, including whacking it with a hockey stick, as if it was a puck. The G-SHOCK timepiece survived, and the world was introduced to the legendary line. One slight oddity with the GSH-H1000 is that Casio included very few watchfaces. You only get an information-dense digital face, a basic analog option, and one that matches the layout of the monochrome LCD. That latter setting was my favorite because it felt less jarring shifting between always-on and active display modes. Obviously, you can download whatever watchface you like from the Play Store, but it’s clear that Casio designed this watch around the dual-layer mode.
Starting with a basic, classic G-Shock design, the digital display is supplemented by three dial window indicators. A 10-year battery life, 10-bar water resistance and 10-meter dropping shock resistance. Other functions like a stopwatch capability and the others are limited to the small digital display at the bottom of the dial. As you’d expect in a G-Shock watch, the GSW-H1000 has a brawny look with a titanium back for extra durability.
It’s made with lightweight metal and fine resin components that don’t sacrifice the durability the brand is known for. The bracelet band on the new MTGB2000D is made with partially hollow stainless-steel segments that encase the fine resin inserts, meaning it weighs about 15 percent less than the previous g shock protection MT-G model. G-Shock is a line of watches manufactured by Casio, designed to resist mechanical shock and vibration. They are designed primarily for sports, military and outdoors-oriented activities; nearly all G-Shocks are digital or a combination of analog or digital and have a stopwatch feature.
