The display is complex yet clear enough to read in most conditions, and the backlight is a surprisingly bright violet color that will make everything clear even underwater. Another button, the last button, is positioned at 6 o’clock at the bottom of the bezel and is used for activating the light. This is a crucial feature for this type of watch that ensures perfect legibility at all times, even in complete darkness. A clever g shock protection function that Casio has incorporated is that if you press the light button and the lower-left button, the hands move out of the way for the screen so you can read it properly in case they are in the way. Other features include shock resistance (as with all G-Shocks), a digital compass, barometer, altimeter, and a thermometer built-in. The shock-resistant MUDMASTER watches regularly pop up in our best outdoor watch roundup.
You can find this model in a greyish color tone, which not only is durable and tough to wear under harsh environment, but also completes your outlook in a very different manner. Another one from the same collaboration in color khaki which looks quite different as compared to the black one. Same in specification but with a different outlook the G Shock Mud Master GG-B100BA-1ADR has a black dialer against khaki Resin band.
You can compare the features of up to 3 different products at a time.
Approved by the FAA, G-Shock designed the first solar-assisted GPS navigation and reception watch that are preferred by pilots all over the globe. In addition, Triple Sensor Version 3 capabilities provide instant access to direction, barometric pressure, and temperature information when needed under tough conditions. Forged carbon is often used in aircraft and motorsports as it is lighter than stainless steel, with a superior tensile strength. The irregular mixture of carbon fibres and resin has been used to form the entire mid-section of the case, including the lugs and guard claws, that protect the watch’s metal bezel and crown.
However, it’s left out of a watch that is marketed to spend its life outside and will force you to change them roughly every 2 years. Like most G-Shocks, the Mudmaster comes will all the standard features, a stopwatch feature, 5 alarms (with snooze!) and 31 world times. Maybe even the g shock protection extreme sports guys wouldn’t use these features, but they’re there and fun to use in daily life. Like the Yeti SP5C Bike, the Casio is made for extreme conditions and abuse. It takes its name from the Mud Resist system of gaskets in the pipes that keep mud and dust out of the watch.
Our Mudmaster connected on the first try, in only seconds, to the app where a short three-step guide takes you through the available features. These are a Mission log which records your walking route and altitude data, while a location indicator shows the heading and the distance to a previously registered location. Location data is provided by your phone, as the watch does not have GPS.
