It comes up smaller than the normal G Shocks. So not quite so in your face. Quite discreet. Not as small as a Baby G though,somewhere in between. Comes in different colours too. You can see the colour versions on amazon.
I think Lotto got it in one. I’m currently wearing that very watch and like it a lot. I probably wear it more than any other watch I own, lovely bit of kit.
Never understood why you would take a reliable watch and stick mechanicals in to it.
My mechanical auto Seiko is easily as reliable as a G-Shock, certainly it’s more reliable than the G-Shock that’s sitting unworn upstairs, because the Casio gains around a couple of minutes a month, and sitting holding a stupid little button in while it wound s l o w l y r o u n d a n d r o u n d and I slowly lost the will to bloody live while resetting the time just pissed me off.
It’s an analogue display, not unlike the one lotto linked to, because hands are so much easier to read quickly at a glance than digital, but Christ, couldn’t they build in an option to reverse the hands when it runs fast?
Another vote here for the G-Shock 2900 watch. Got mine off eBay for about £20, it’s been way more reliable than anything I’ve owned previously. That said, the last watch I had which lasted for years and years was also made by Casio.
I miss my DW-003, stupidly attached it to my bars and got ripped off then lost the chassis before I could fix the strap lugs. If they released another G-Lide range I would have one in a heartbeat, much prefer fabric to rubber.
GW-6900. I always thought it would be too big. It’s not, ultra reliable, always spot on and loud enough alarm to wake me up.
And you don’t look like a terrorist.
I have a g shock that has been relegated to being my DIY watch. As a result it was looking worse for wear in terms of being splattered in a variety of different paints. As a test I thought it give it a wash by sticking it in the dishwasher – 2 hours later and it came out looking great and fully functional 😀
You can’t beat a g shock!
