I got this one yesterday for my 8 year old son as his first watch so he can learn to read the time. He has slim wrist and this is where this model excels compared to the other models such as the Casioak. It wears really small. Also the buttons are much easier to press than on the Casioak. My son completely failed to press the Light button on the Casioak whereas on this model he can do it with ease. I am not into G-Shocks as I usually don't like their designs but I really like this new and compact design and could see myself wearing one.

Hmm, the lack of lumed markers is a major fail in my opinion. Fantastic styling, but this is such a falure of a [basic] function. Watches should never forget that their primary function is to tell the time. Pity.

@@astronaut2005drummer I agree with those added features and I think an added step counter would really fit with the sporty aesthetic.

Cool new model. I think I'll get the stealth. But the transluent blue is a looker too. Improvements? I wish Casio would figure something to do with the ends of their resin straps, so, they don't stick up. In a watch with such a streamlined design as this, that little end sticking up is a bit of an eyesore. Still, great looking timepiece.

Got this one (a stealth black one) a week ago as sort of an "upgrade" from my GA-2100-1A3ER (basically CasiOak with neon green accents) and I'm really liking it so far. It's marginally easier to read time on my CasiOak due to neon green color on hands and tips of hour markers, but it's all just a matter of getting used to it. On the other hand, GA-B001 looks more futuristic in regards to design. All in all, I'm loving them both. :)

Negative display and lack of solar panel are absolute deal breakers for me. Also, they should work on overall legibility and much simpler, cleaner looking and more classical designs, at least in the dial department. Why not making a classic G-shock field watch? Something like the beautiful Lineage series, but with G-shock protection all around.

I'm really happy this is not solar powered.

The new solar Casioak needs to keep the dial translucent in order to work, and that's a shame.

If the buttons on the 5610 were any bigger, the look would change and this model is a retro nod to the 1983 original, so they'll probably leave them as small - I can live with this on my 5610 - but since I have the old model, I don't have time on timer & stopwatch, which is more of a niggle to me than the buttons

Not adding lume to the hour markers is a little disappointing, but omitting tough solar from this watch and the GA2100 is almost criminal. Maybe they’re just trying to incrementally add features over time, but both watches (any G-Shock, really) should have tough solar.

It almost looks like it has a domed crystal, but I'm guessing it does not. That could have been a nice touch for this watch. The overall shape and outlook of this watch is very appealing. No positive LCD? I'm never buying a non-positive Casio again. Negative displays look cool in pictures videos and shop windows, but when it comes to daily use the negative display is so limited. Big buttons is nice but they look a bit cheap with their plastic finish. If it's a stealth option why not have all the screws and the back plate in black as well? Hands: It seems that all Casio ana-digi models have these 'back-flippers' on the hands. I think they're there to balance the weight of the hands and save battery power when moving. I wish they'd solve it differently though. Those flaps just look silly. Like you said, big opportunity missed by not putting lume on those nice round indicators.. I guess Casio can't afford spending the money on that.. I LOVE Casio but they keep making these watches that makes me wish for more. With some few exceptions they're always putting in the same functionality in their watches. Why not have multiple countdown timers? A strong flashlight like there are on mobile phones? It seems that Casio stopped being creative some time in the mid 00s. Their creativity now seems mostly directed at putting out the same type of clocks in different colours, so they've basically become Swatch.
