"Well...after that one, i'm done" 😂😂😂

People who look down on you for wearing a G-Shock also can't find their girlfriends G-Spot.

My dad bought a Gshock in 1988. In 2021 we finally replaced the battery

1:17 Gives Rashes 2:30 Solar Power is a Life Saver 3:37 Auto Backlight Depletes Batt. 4:21 Negative Displays is hard to see 4:45 Atomic Time keeping.... Psshh 6:21 expensive are not equal to best ones 7:29 Apple for average/ G schock for Men 9:09 Dude He has Cousins 10:03 Wearing one Doesn't mean your cheap, It's Durability, It's ability to help a men when in need. 11:36 One is not enough, YEAH SOMEBODY GETS ME!

I've had my gwg-1000 for 2 years now I wear it every day . I work on 2 farms 6 days a week. This watch has me very impressed with it's durability. dirt,mud,grease, oil, diesel, gasoline, pesticides, lots of sweat, and temperatures from -10 to 110 it still works with out a hesitation. I would highly recommend this watch if you are a farmer like my self.

My ex girlfriend told me my G-Shock looks like a toy watch. Key word: EX

I love G Shock. I was in the Coast Guard and it was nice to wear one watch that worked in Hawaiian summers and Alaskan winters. It survived engine rm fires and scuba diving activity on liberty. At night, when i woke up with all lights off, it was nice to check the time and see how much more sleep i could get before next watch. It looked good in uniform, PT gear or in casual R an R gear. One watch for one exciting life. Hey, i accidently did a commercial. Lol. Seriously i stand by this watch. It really did take care of me. as i traveled and served.

Bro - I am currently in the “buying too many gshocks” phase. It kinda hurts because I love them all so much I don’t know which one to wear. I know I’m privileged to say that

Awesome video! I have a pathfinder and the light finally stopped working after about 15 years. Its still ticking tho.

I really like the resin straps on G-Shocks. No irritation or anything.

Atomic is not a gimmick, it syncs everyday for me. The most important point from the atomic feature for me is that i never have to adjust the time for summer/winter time. This together with solar makes it that you never have to set the watch ever again. Set it up when you buy it and you are good to go for life.

Excellent. The atomic watchkeeping might depend on your range from the transmitter. Here in the UK, you're always within range but in the wilds of other countries, it might be a problem. The watch DOES tell you if it doesn't receive a signal. With or without atomic function, you cant beat a G Shock.

I have been collecting watches a long time, and I almost never run into watch guys that look down on G-Shocks. If anything,it's about the only sub-$1000 watch a lot of them will give respect to.

"I need a watch that's super tough when I'm overlanding but the strap gives me a rash" -No g-shock guy ever.

Im sure the g shock doesnt spy on you either so that is also a plus

The last point is really the most important one. When you buy a G-Shock you'll definitely want more and more (their variants, collabs, types, etc.). But if you're willing to get you first one I would definitely go with the DW5600.

Had that same exact Mudmaster. Rediculously huge. Sold it. My DW5600 is my daily grab-and-go watch. Perfect size, love the look of the display and I never have to worry about bumping it against anything. And yeah, probably had it for 10 years and have yet to change the battery. The size of G-Shock models prohibit me from building a G-Shock collection but I do love all the models. I've been lucky enough to own IWC, Breitling, Glashutte, Tag, Longines but tough times forced me to liquidate most of my collection but they'll take my DW5600 from me when they pry it off my cold, dead wrist.

Own 38 G Shocks and now waiting for the 39th and... if I may: 1. They don't irritate your skin, not more than any other much more expensive brands. 2. They are stylish AF 😎 if you match them properly, been to exclusive parties where people asked me about the watch I'm wearing (full metal golden square) 3. Atomic time keeping works flawlessly for people who travel, changed 8 countries in 1 year and never had to set my time so... not a gimmick, not to some. 4. G Shocks offer the best price/quality in watch industry, if you want/need cheaper buy regular Casio or other brands but... you'll see what I mean, they worth every penny. 5. Apple watch is for people who can't live without the simplicity of Apple, I have one and... it's crazy, charge it, doesn't help much... rather buy a new phone, easier... add some money and you have your dream phone. 6. Suunto is good but won't stand what a G Shock does, also they don't age as good. Nice points 👏 subscribed!

After wearing a G shock Rangeman for a couple of years, I got an Apple Watch as a present and broke it on the first adventure I went to haha 😂 and my Rangeman still going 👍

For the longest time I stuck to my mechanical time pieces but I bought my first G Shock(Dw-5600 Blacked out Version) a couple years ago and you basically started telling my story at point 10 where one is not enough lol. Im always finding a good reason to add another to the collection.

I’ve wore a G-Shock for 10 months , hardly ever taken it off. I’m a dairy farmer. Manure, grease, water, impact. I’ve swam with it, fixed equipment , trimmed hooves. It’s like armour. Gave my dad one. Typically his watches last a month. These watches wear tough. It was a good investment. Going to start looking for my next one, one that doesn’t smell like manure and diesel

Cheap gshock = best gshock They are supposed to be tough beater not a fashion show.

Thanks for your wonderful video. I have 4 G-Shocks, 2 Protreks, and 2 Edifices, but the latest one I bought is the g-shock mtg-b2000. The criteria for choosing a watch after turning 50 should not be a urethane strap (there was a trauma that caused it to break because it broke and had to buy it twice as expensively as it got old) and it should be a solar cell. If you open the battery a few times to insert the battery, it is easy to have a problem with waterproofing, and if the body is made of plastic, it peels off and grinds over time, so I buy a product made of metal or carbon... That is the conclusion I learned while buying a watch for about 20 years. The phone and Bluetooth function automatically set the time, which is great. And if possible, buy a G-Shock. Since it hasn't broken yet...

I love your vids, man. I strongly relate to the never ending purchasing of G-Shocks. At 46, I find my interests leading me to things that are long lasting and well made. There are lots of ways to interpret that but I find that the G-Shock line has a lot of variety and flair to feed my curiosity and interest in my the watch game.

The G shock watch is a must if you have an active outdoor job. I was in the UK army for 23 years and had 2 of the first kind, they survived every type of abuse imaginable. I had to replace my first one because I lost it in Bosnia. I still wear one today with pride, an immense brand! 👍

You don't wear a G-Shock, it wears you!

I had a Garmin Fenix for 3-4 years then the battery started not holding its charge. But local watch stores couldn’t do anything about it because of the electrical components on the inside. Recently I have the basic 40 dollar 5600E and it’s a beast. Now I’m looking to see what my 2nd g-shock is gonna be.

I love how g shock endured all these years i love it ever since i got one when I was just a kid. I love the look the feel and how it makes me feel really reliable and very durable. I even wear it during scuba diving or snorkeling. I wish I kept all my past gshocks for collection. I planning to buy that casioak soon but I still love my current Gorillaz gshock.

I am a major Casio watch fanboy, I have a variety of G-Shock variants from Oceanus, Edifice, Protrek, Pathfinder, Master of G, MTG, and Mudmaster every one of my Casios are both solar powered AND atomic, I've never had to change a watch battery nor have I had to set the time on them. They are all accurate to one another to the second. My perspective, solar atomic is worth it!

Here is a big thing about Apple Watch. YOU HAVE TO CHARGE THE DAMN THING. I wear my watch to bed and I don’t like to take off my watch. I have a GShock as well. Wore it for 8 years.

Great video, thank you. Just bought my first G-Shock, a DW-5600, and I certainly do love it. Glad I started with a cheap one, because I am definitely going to want a steel G-Shock one in the future.... Very glad I can also placate myself with affordable Casios of other stripes in the meantime (can you say Duro?)

You are right about the negative display. I have the Casio 5600bb I love it but I find my 5600e (yeah the $38 one) more useful. The display is way easier to read so I end up using it more often.

Never understood the addiction to G shocks until I bought one. It almost becomes a part of your body. Need to remember when was the last time I took it off. Heat, cold, rain, showers, beaches, swimming, sports, office and countless other situations. You don't feel more comfortable in any other watch.

Casio G Shock arguably the greatest watchs every made.

your vids are so entertaining and informative! just got into watch collection and currently have the mudmaster gg1000 1a3 and mtgb3000FR 40th anniv..looking forward to have more!

You are so right. I mainly like bulova marine star, and citizen promasters but I have twice as many G-SHOCKs. It’s nice to see another person feel the same!!!! Awesome content bro

I live in Alaska and fly medevac I used to love my Apple Watch, until I forgot to charge it. It’s useless! Plus when it’s -50 or -60 the Apple watch battery will not allow the watch to work

I've never had a Multi Band 6 Casio watch that doesn't work all the time. This feature/function has never failed on me. It should be said that I haven't used watches like these for more than a decade or so, but still. This feature has been incredibly reliable. Having the watch always showing the exact time without me having to ever thinking about it sure is a convenient and highly sought after feature in a watch.

I own 2 G-shocks my self and they are among my favorites. My G-100 was my first and I recently picked up a GA-B2100 but I do also wear and love my simple Seiko 5 self winding field watch.

My most prized G Shock is my (about) 1987 DW-5600 691 H Screw Back, I got it for about $20 and completely refurbished it including grinding the scratches out of the glass and polishing it back to like new. Got reproduction resins, the only thing missing is an original buckle. My favorite G Shock to wear is the Mudman, I just really like that watch

I've been wearing g shock since 9th grade. I'm 45 now. Ive had numerous models and their durability is unmatched but as I've gotten older, it seems like I need a more mature watch. Two years ago, I purchased the re-issue of the Seiko Arnie. It's tough, functional and it looks badass. I still wear a dw5600e to work every day and that will never change.

I'm getting myself a G-Shock because of the MF Doom line "G-Shocks and biological clocks", and I've always liked the design of G-Shocks ever since I was a kid.

Thanks man, really, thank you very much on this video! I got addicted to hand watch since i found one lol. And now after like 5 years that watch is kinda falling apart and i need a new one. And as a truck driver and crane operator i choose g shock mudmaster bcse of its robust appearance and toughness. And again, thank you for letting me know that am not missing anything important if i don’t buy most expensive model! I don’t need atomic link and i don’t want it to turn on lights on movement of my wrist. You saved me a lot of money! Cheers!

Thanks for the info and now I know what to shop for. I been wearing the I don’t know what model g-shock just know it won’t break easily. It’s my every day have invictas for occasions mostly for awe. But for reliability and toughness it g-shock all the way. Enjoyed your video.

Many years ago I bought the yellow one, it was a real looker. I gave it to a friend who always admired it. I miss it.

Despite having a varied and extensive watch collection, the one watch I wear most often, is the solar version of the DW5600 - the G5600E. A rugged, no nonsense watch of excellent value.

Pure fun, thx dude. Liked and subscribed. 👍

Thanks great topic😊 My favorite G-Shock is G STEEL Resin Band GSTS110-1A. My wife really surprised me for our anniversary and it’s probably the one that get the most compliments on.

I am totally agree with the last point on the list! I got my first G-shock which is a GD-100 back in 2018 and I talked to myself "well, this is enough as most G-shock will last more than a few years, okay I am done". But just recently when I saw a used "The King" GX-56BB with good deal on sale, I ended up getting that one lol. And now, that GA2000 looks very cool too....

Love my iPhone but can’t stand Apple watches, would take a G-Shock any day of the week.

Atomic timekeeping really depends on the country and buildup of buildings in your area. Like, I get zero coverage in Vancouver, but in UK - london of all places - I can get reception. Europe around netherlands/germany no prob. In spain I have yet to get signal in my area but maybe going to a big park will change that.

Great video! I just bought an all black GA2100 it hasn't arrived yet and this was very helpful.

LOL never had an issue with the strap on my G.SHOCK actually been using the same watch 3 years every day now and its going strong. Never heard of anyone having issues with theirs unless they´re trying to sell straps.

I'm a welder for the past 30 years and Casio watches, not only the G shock range, are the only watches that I have found last through the rough and tumble of my job. They just seem to be all built very well.

Just got myself a Casio pro trek 3500 (didn't want the 3510's black display) and it's a beast. Tough solar, Triple sensor, 20bars, atomic time and all the tools but found it on sale for 200 bucks, a third of the mudmaster. I'm very happy with it

you are so right with your last point, i wasn't owning a watch at all for about 25 years and now i just bought 2 in a row and 3rd is coming in soon. i need to slow things down i guess:D

Don't agree about the atomic clock synchro being a gimmick. I have the 5610 and the atomic synch works great. The watch is always accurate and, with the solar charging, always has power. Well worth the money IMHO.

Regarding Apple watch comparisons I would love to hear your thoughts on the new GShock Heartrate enabled watch due out in April!!

Thank you bro. I'm about to buy my first g shock tomorrow. This really help. I like the 2100s or a g steel. I like the simple one's

Great video and information!

i wash my g-shock every month in the dishwasher... still working since years!

'People will look down upon you for wearing G- shock' When people see G- shock watches: "jesus crist, are they orignal?! Damn...."

Was going to buy my 1st g shock but wanted to check them out ! Thanks for the video! I work in a cold storage in -10 ice box an I need a good solid watch

Just bought the DW5600BB-1. Ive owned a bunch of G shocks in the past, but I never have connected with one until now! Yes, the negative display can be hard to see, but this watch is absolutely sick! 200m of water resistance in a very sleek and wearable case. So happy I purchased it.

I love the atomic time keeping function. It's cool to watch your G Shock change at the exact second as your phone without a Bluetooth connection. Knowing that your watch always has the correct time and that you never need to change the battery is the best.

One more thing YOU need to know: if you change the original strap with a rag one, the watch will loose some shock resistance.

Just got my first g shock. I really like em. The chunky look is what I like about them. I got black with the red face and have already ordered a white whith with the bronze face! I’m hooked! 💕😃

Informative and entertaining as always! Thanks

Personally I think atomic time is more beneficial to those in the military, as they wouldn’t necessarily have access to a phone to reset the time

These "things I wish I knew" videos are full of great information. Thanks and do more!

Thank you for this vid it was one of several that helped me loving my gpr b1000

Get my first G shock ,GW300 over 20 years ago!, it still runs. You are so right about trying not to buy more, I have 3 G shocks and one Illuminator. I love them all. 👍🏿

I’ve had the mud master for about 6 years. Changed the batteries (has two I guess) once. Wear it daily doing construction and has had no issues. Solid watch!

I wear my G-Shock Atomic Solar when I'm hunting, shooting, skydiving and working on trucks and motorcycles. It's been perfect. Although my atomic time-setting feature works flawlessly, it isn't really necessary on a watch that might be off by a couple of seconds a year anyhow. And since it's a solar watch I never need to worry about the backlight running the battery down. I've been wearing it since 2011. It's my only G-shock but I will be collecting others.

haha love this video..... You can't get enough G-shocks!!! I think I have about 4 and I want more... My green Rangeman GW-9400 has been with my since my 6 1/2 year military career and has been abused like hell. The fact it is solar powered is such a bonus as I haven't replaced the battery yet. During basic training I thought it was going to die on me because I had it removed and packed away in my bag which we were not allowed to touch until the final week of training. When I went to put it on I couldn't believe the thing was still running even though it was placed in total darkness the whole time!!.... That watch hold so many memories because of my military career and it almost still looks as good as the day I bought it. I'm luck as the bands don't irritate my skin. My two newest G-Shocks are the GBD-H1000 which I currently wear (love the slate grey and red accents on it) and I just got the limited edition DWE5600CC with combo pack with the three bands and extra cover. I'm right into electronics so I HAD to get that one!. I also have the first ever G-Shock produced and also a basic green mudmaster which I got before the green Rangeman and that thing is still going (no solar on it) to this day. It's still brand new and in it's original packaging as is the DWE5600CC. My main watch I wear every day at the moment is the GBD-H1000.... I love it because it has bluetooth and monitors my heart rate etc and works well with the app I have on both my android Samsun S8 and iPhone 11. in IMHO G-Shock are the best watches ever made in terms of durability but also their looks. I love the large Mudmasters and Rangeman collections..... By the way I always leave my auto light on and mine never seem to drain the battery like yours. Not sure why yours does that? My GW-9400 is still going strong to this day and the only time I turned off the auto light was when on deployment. Great channel and have just subbed....

Great video, thank you!

Your first negative is easily fixed. Lived in a high temperature, high humidity location for many years. If you cinch the band up tight, it was very uncomfortable. Just let the band out one "hole" and you'll be fine.

I work as an electrical engineer, generally running around like a boon fixing things, my watch gets bashed. Colleagues have apple watches and they've all broke the screen at some point and bashed the casing to the point they take it off in dirty situations. Not my g shock though!

I know I'm a little late to the party but I've had multiple radio g-shocks here in TN including currently an Oceanus OCW-S100-1AJF and never had a problem with the radio function working. The transmitter is in Denver, CO so I suppose it depends on your relative geoposition. CO>TN is a pretty decent range..

Really nice work amigo. Excellent.

I just want to say that I use the Atomic Clock every day and I live in Canada. I put the watch by a south facing window at night before midnight local time and it picks up a signal most of the time at midnight. The exception is during storms and heavy rains. If I miss a synchronization on one night, it picks up the atomic signal the next night. I believe that if it misses a signal at midnight, it tries again every hour several times. Thanks for the review. Entertaining as usual.

I literally subscribed because of this video 😃 Love every single part of it and especially the end where you exactly describe how addicted you get by these watches 😅 Good job keep up the fun videos. Who thought watch videos could be fun right? The Time Teller: "Hold my beer"

I use Barton straps, have one on my Hamilton Khaki King and on my Victorinox Inox Carbon. They suit these type of analogue field watches. What they don’t suit is G-Shock, any type but especially not FMS/MTG/Mudmaster...or pretty much any Casio looking at all these canvas and nylon strap aberrations that you have on your watches.

The 1st watch I ever bought for myself back in the late 80's was a simple Casio digital watch with a 50m waterproof rating, just like the one you showed. I swam with it, surfed with it, scuba dived with it & it survived fine & was my daily wear for at least a decade. It had long faded from my memory when I found it in a junk draw just recently for orphaned electronic bits & pieces, how it had survived the clean out culls of several past girlfriends I will never know as throwing out my stuff seemed to be a past time for them, do they have a bloody club or something. Anyway, I digress, I wacked a new battery in the little Casio, I can't find a model number to quote but I'm betting someone here will know the watch I'm talking about, & it came to life !. I have hung it beside my computer as a quick time/date checker & it still keeps perfect time, but now after watching this video I realize I have never owned a G-Shock, so having found this amazing site called Ebay or something & with your permission, I'm goin shoppin, cheers, great video by the way.

I am wearing a g-shock model that I got for Christmas in 2005. I have worn it almost every day. It has the solar feature and it has always stayed well charged and I have had absolutely no battery problems at all. It also has the atomic function. It sets itself every night while I sleep. It is always on time to the second. There is a lot of stuff I do not know, but I do know what time it is.

"one's not enough!" ... I hear ya. I'm down the rabbit hole as we speak 😉

Amazing, Thanks!

I love my G-Shock's, 4 the moment I've got the 5081 red edition and the 5522 Gold Edition. I'm very happy about them, now I go on to purchase some others one...!! 👍🏽✌🏽

My G-Shock has solar power and atomic time keeping. I've had it for 4 years and it always works perfectly. Automatcally updates when clocks go forward in spring and back in autumn.

That last part was spot on!! I got one G-Shock now I have 10.

I recently purchased a GBA-900. I've had a few G-Shocks in the past and the only thing that ever has gone wrong is the bands finally breaking. So I thought I would go back to them. However, I have a quite difficult time reading the digital display. Using the light really doesn't make it easier to read either. The light shines from the side and towards the hands, but doesn't illuminate the digital display. I'm quite disappointed that they did not include a screen illumination feature, rather than a led light that shines on the screen as an option. And before you ask why I didn't go into the store to see the "negative display" feature first hand... I live in American Samoa and had no access to a G-Shock store. I read online that some had the same issue which I am experiencing, but I was sure I had read that there was a second light to illuminate the digital display better, yet it's not to be found. I guess I was mistaken.

Great video 👍

Bought the Mud Master a year ago. It's "In your Face" loud and brash and I love it ❤️

I like the radio controlled G-Shock. I use mine to set my automatic watches, to be sure they're set accurately...

👍🏻🤗 Thanks for making this video and for sharing all of your valuable opinions with us. My best wishes keep it up🙋‍♀️🙂

Far out, that’s the best video on G-shock watches I’ve come across here on KZfaq. Thank you, sir.

Love my g-shock mudmaster.. no issue with the resin strap.. wave ceptre and solar are my favorite features.. everyone needs a gshock.. 👍🏻

I was with ya 💯 until the atomic time keeping bit, that’s why I bought a GW6900 over the DW6900. Works every night for me. Still love ya anyway!

Great video!! Lots of fun to WATCH!!😉

I just watched your video and appreciate your input on G-Shock watches. I don't agree with much of your reviews, but that's ok right? I find the bands to be very comfortable for my wrist. I love all the features and don't care if I can't get email and make phone calls on it. That's why I have a phone. I have 6 Mudmasters and just bought a 7th. Why do I love Mudmasters? I love the LOOK! I'm 6-4 and 220 lbs and they just fit my body and my lifestyle. They are indestructible, water, mud, snow, rocks, sand, dirt, wind, drop, throw, kick, you understand. But mostly they just look so dang GOOD! Oh yeah, cost. Don't care. Addicted. But I did like your video.
