Myth. It's cost cutting 100%.

That's not exactly accurate with Sapphire. My rangeman previous version has mineral as well but there are plenty of companies on Amazon that make screen protectors three for five bucks. I bought about 20 of them and every 6 months I peel off the old one and put a new one on and my mineral crystal looks brand new.

Myth indeed! More accurate a lie. Same as with WR, to make the watch industry sell higher priced watches.

I would say it is fluffy 😃 Way better to wear than King Kong GPR-B1000

I couldn't agree more, Casio simply lost it....

MIP is shit. You can’t read them indoors. This is why Garmin users are selling off their Fenix’s and switching to the Amoled.

The altimeter in it is barometric pressure-based. If you are moving up and down in altitude a lot then its baseline changes and it requires calibration. The barometer in it works best when you are not having rapid elevation changes. The idea was that you could set the barometric pressure and zero it at the beginning of your hike and it would be accurate altitude readings. The altimeter and the barometer run on the same sensor. More expensive altimeter barometer systems use GPS altitude confirmation. Long story short, the watch itself unless it has a system that uses GPS to confirm, doesn't know if the pressure is changing because of weather or because you're going higher and lower in altitude. Also, The barometer turning on and off is the severe weather notification. When you activate it, it will monitor the barometric pressure every 10 minutes instead of every hour to notice for weather changes, but it defaults to off after 24 hours.

The price for monochrome? 😂😂

Yes, if you turn off all the health and fitness features and also put the watch in airplane mode, the Bluetooth will shut off completely and the Rangeman will never ever need any charging and the watch will solely be powered and run only on the solar panel that’s underneath the crystal. The solar panel powers the time, day, date, stopwatch, countdown timer, world time, sunrise/sunset times, moon phase, compass, barometer, altimeter, all the alarms, the snooze alarm and the step counter. These functions that I just listed are powered 100% by the solar panel. You will never ever need to charge the watch with the USB cable when you set the watch up like I mentioned above and if you use only the features that I just listed above. I one the same gpr-h1000 Rangeman and I wear mine 24/7 and never charged it ever since I purchased it. The solar panel underneath the crystal charges the watch with the natural sunlight outside and with the ambient light inside the house. The only thing that you need to do is just wear the watch and let the solar panel do its thing. That’s it. You wear the Rangeman as a G-Shock just like you wear all other solar G-Shocks and you allow the outside sunlight and the indoor ambient light power the watch. You will never ever need to charge your watch if you do this. The only time that you will need to charge your watch will be is if you turn on the heart monitor and the oxygen sensor. Otherwise, you will never need to charge your Rangeman if you keep the heart monitor and the oxygen sensor off and the Bluetooth off. Keep the watch in airplane mode and wear it like a regular G-Shock like I do and your Rangeman will never need any charging. I hope that I cleared up everything for you snd answered your concerns and questions.

@2MenEQ yes it won't charge if its fully charged with a charger. Protects the watch for over charging. Happens the same with Garmin, once fully charged it won't charge with solar too till battery comes down a certain percent.

Xiaomi Amazfit Huawei

I have both old one is bigger and feels more special.But features wise it is an upgrade for the smart features. Just need to test if I can use it as a daily and replace garmin fenix 6x

The GPR-B1000 is more like a clock then a watch. Tooo big. The new one which I have is awesome. I got the black new rangeman

Basically, the timekeeping functions are the only features that can be fully charged with solar power. Anything involving GPS or heart sensor functions would need the external USB charger.

H1000 is the one you are looking for, thats why I did not get H2000 or either this gprh1000, due to battery concerns, with my H1000 almost 3yrs now never have to charge again, 24/7 step tracking also bluetooth always on as long you dont use too much gps and HR, this is the best watch if you want a watch with step tracker and sync witj google fit and no need to charge, just expose to a 30-40watts bulb for 10-15min a day or go outside walk for 30mins on a sunny day then you will never need to charge again..

I have one- if you never use the heart rate monitor youll never have to charge the watch. If you use the heart rate monitor; gps features you will have to charge it depending on use

@@MrStirstir thank you, approximately how many times do you charge per month and how is your usage? Curious :) thank you!

@@AlTheEngineer I went on a two hour hike last week. It just lost one bar. I probably charge it once a month depending on hikes and length of hikes/runs. If you use it just as a watch youlll never have to charge it.

Amazing, please can you let us know if its tough Solar (day light/artificial light) or normal solar (sun light)? Also generally how accurate is the HRM? THANKS!!! ​@MrStirstir

Charger Block with 5v, 2A Check Your Manual Instruction, But I recommend to charge via PC / Laptop or Power Bank.. avoid charging directly to General Power Outlet (GPO) My Suunto 5 Peak totally malfunction because I always charge it directly to GPO

What?

Magic eraser

Can you show me the link to this? Thanks ​@@kurtweeks1

Good eye! 🎯😎 thank you, great place!

Solar and a charger for when you use all the sensors and GPS for extended periods

With compass, thermometer, barometer, altimeters and tidal monitor. .. step counter too

It only tracks you and doesn't navigate. But you don't rely on a watch for that anyway

It will give you speed, distance, time and heart rate. When you are done it shows you a route in the app.

Nah

Yes.

@@Aonexia it does not sync to google fit

@@andyblue001 Oh... cool. Thankyou.

9400 mı var? Ben de yeni siparişimi verdim ancak bu 9400 üstüne bi geliştirme gibi görünüyor.

You've never had a Sapphire watch shatter have you? It's remarkably easy to do! For it's intended purpose, I would argue that Mineral Display is the much better choice for an outdoorsman's watch as although it is more prone to light scratches, the scenarios in which a Mineral Display watch will keep working when damaged vastly outnumbered those of Sapphire Glass (if Sapphire smashes...it basically explodes and is no-more)

@@flynndean By that logic go with acrylic

​@@FuglyStick Sure, but then Mineral Glass has better transparency and MUCH better scratch resistance than acrylic at the expense of being SLIGHTLY more brittle. It's MUCH less brittle than Sapphire whilst being more prone to scratches - Let's call it the middle-ground. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I've had a very active job for ~20yrs (I'm having to slow down now) - trust me...when Sapphire goes, it really goes! If you're buying a G-Shock for it's intended purpose, you're going to value survivability at the expense of some scratch resistance (indeed...scratches on a G-Shock arguably make them look even better!)

@@flynndean Dude, I own 3 G Shocks, all of them have mineral glass. And I wear my G Shocks in the environment they were engineered for - I was wearing a G Shock when I lost a finger to the wood splitter 3 months ago. The issue of scratch resistance has never been much of an issue for G Shocks because their cases are designed in such a way as to limit contact with the glass; put a G Shock face down on a sheet of sandpaper and move it around and the bezel will keep the sandpaper from contacting the glass. But that same protection applies to a sapphire glass as well. If you are paying premium watch price, you should expect premium watch materials. And I'm going to guess that anything that will damage a sapphire glass in an over built g shock watch is going to damage mineral glass as well. I don't have time for this. Have a nice day.

Mineral glass is much better then sapphire glass.

Way too big

What she said......

Constructed Smart !! hard to explain until you wear it, extremely comfortable also !!!

There is a black one 🧐
