This is yet another way Casio added a touch of class and refinement that also helps to the overall structure resistance. The final layer that comes with filled engravings is a stainless steel bezel and the smoothed outer layer structure has a matte finish. All in all, it’s safe to say that the Casio G-Shock Mudmaster GWG-1000 is a watch out of the ordinary. It is part of the G-Shock collection and therefore offers everything you would expect from one, but at the same time, it offers so much more.
/PRNewswire/ — Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced the latest addition to the Master of G line of G-SHOCK shock-resistant watches, which are designed for use in the most extreme conditions. The new MUDMASTER GWG-2000 is the first G-SHOCK to be built with forged carbon, which is both lightweight and strong. Designed for defense against disasters, the GWG1000-1A3 and GWG1000-1A9 offer protection from mud, vibration, shock, and other elements. Mud Resistance is made possible through a button guard structure utilizing gaskets within the cylinders and button shafts, as well as a screw lock crown structure that also prevents mud and dust from entering the case. The use of Alpha Gel® at the bottom and sides of the case also provides Vibration Resistance while washers where the band joins the case prevent the lug screws from coming loose. Everyone who sees the Mudmaster remarks first on its size — there’s no getting around that it’s just plain big — but if you try it on you’re just as likely to remark on its comfort.
The rest of the functions are similar to other top G-Shocks like alarms, world time, chronograph, dual time display, high intensity LED light and many more. The LCD screen at 6 o’clock is used for reading the sensor functions of this watch. A downside of the GWG-1000, however, is that the screen is quite small and can be easy to read. You may also use the button to move the hands out of the way quite frequently.
Because of its size, it’s not the most comfortable, but it does the job for what it’s meant to do. Thanks to its rugged construction, you won’t have to worry about whether or not it will hold up. This is a very multifunctional analogue/digital watch with Compass, extreme shock resistant case, Tough Solar and Atomic timekeeping. 2 years battery life g shock protection and uses a standard CR2025 battery which are cheap and easy to source. Although not recommended because of the water resistant O ring you can at a push replace the battery easily yourself with only a small screwdriver. Casio has announced that it will be adding a new watch to its G-SHOCK MUDMASTER range, this one will be built from forged carbon.
Boasting a tough and rugged structure, the Mudmaster series puts functions that support high-level performance at your fingertips. It uses altitude readings from the watch and GPS on your phone to track your progress on an excursion. Activate the Mission Log, and the location is recorded on a map, along with activity time, distance, and elevation changes.
The CASIO G-SHOCK GGB100-1B combines a pilot/military aesthetic with a nod to the past of the military spec sword hands along with modern carbon fiber and buttons inspired by fighter jet joysticks. The Mudmaster GGB100-1B g shock protection combines the GMT capability of the famous Rolex GMT with pilot/ outdoor essential features like an altimeter and compass. It’s no surprise that the G-Shock is so popular with so many modern military units.

Stopwatch , Countdown Timer , Day/Date Display, and Full Auto Calendar and Mute Function. Case Size is a formidable 59.5mm H X 56.1mm W x 18mm D and comes in at 119g. The case is made of high-rigidity carbon material to protect against damage and deformation due to impact and other rough treatment, while metal button pipes ensure a tighter seal against the external environment. A filter further protects against the invasion of mud, for the high level of dust and mud resistance required when in severe environments. In addition, the dual back cover consists of a stainless steel panel back and an outer cover made of shock resistant fine resin embedded with glass fibers.
