There are times when you don’t want to use the LED night to preserve night vision so being able to accurately know you are reading the dial ‘square’ is important. The watch was super easy to pair with the Bluetooth app and has a ‘cloned watch’ useable screen where what you see on the app screen is what your watch is doing. You can use the app to change settings like units, timezones and personal data to make the step counter more accurate.
For those who want to take the toughness of the G-Shock one step further, Casio has developed the Mudmaster range within the G-Shock collection. These are made to be amongst the toughest watches you’ll be able to find. This is the ultimate outdoor watch that will handle virtually any situation you subject it to. The top coat is clear so you can see the weave of the carbon fiber through it. G-SHOCKS have a long legendary reputation amongst military personnel all round the world and its easy to see why. For me as a child of the late 70s and early 80s I can still remember my first CASIO watch and the joy the digital display and small night light it had.
This distinctive Radio-controlled watch with Multi band 6 has all features that makes it worthy for its price. Moreover, the double LED light enables readability in darker areas for your convenience. With tough Solar Compatibility and Digital Compass, barometric and temperature readings, it allows you to stay connected no matter wherever you are.
The face is surrounded by a resin bezel with a carbon fiber sheet visible through the transparent top layer. This new shock resistant structure protects modules with a carbon fiber reinforced resin case. The Aviation line tends to have a more traditional design as Casio decided to use analog hands, but I consider this a plus in terms of better readability in harsh environments.
CasioThe Mission Log function tracks the altitude measured by the watch and the course obtained from the smartphone’s GPS and automatically records both to an app. The Calorimeter measures altitude and step count to calculate the calories consumed on a long stalk. From construction through features and design, the G-SHOCK GWG-1000 is in every way designed g shock protection to withstand harsh environments. The Mudmaster runs on the 5594 module — a Bluetooth-connected analog/digital timekeeping device that’s programmable via the G-SHOCK Connected app. The module has a unique “Mission Log” function that combines information from the watch and the GPS in your smartphone to provide a readout of your latest adventure.
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 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.
Casio’s state of the art screen and ultra-lightweight carbon hands means that you never feel as though there is a compromise between functionality and style. The green resin band G shock Mud Master GG-B100-1A3DR does not only looks stylish but it has been designed to bear all the toughness while you continue your work in rough. With advanced specifications and technology, this timepiece has been made for your convenience as it is made og high-rigidity carbon material that protects it against damage and dirt. The MudMaster is a colossus even if you compare it with other top G-Shocks.
Although I didn’t manage to damage it I feel like over time this may end up being the most scruffy part of the watch. I would actually prefer if this buckle was a tough resin or if the metal was PVD coated or finished in a non glossy brushed finish instead. Firstly the lume on the hands should g shock watch extend to the numbers on the dial too or at the very least an extra single lume dot at the 12 position. This means that in the pitch dark you know ‘which way up’ the watch is and more importantly don’t read the watch with a slightly crooked wrist and inaccurately guess which hour it is.
