      The only negative display Casio should ever release again is the MIP display. 😬

      A positive display in black colour variant. And also , this watch should have interval timer too. Just like other bluetooth and step counter G shocks. Very useful @D3ZG1978

    It's like a Gshock "tank" design with Gshock "tank" durability. I absolutely love it. It's quite literally a modern "tank" in form and function.

    If you already have the GBX-100 or GBD-200, then this one definitely is a let down. Removing the amazing MIP display is a major draw back. And they still didn't add tough solar. I would have considered getting this if only tough solar was added.

    • @fuloplehel

    • @fuloplehel
      @fuloplehel Před 2 měsíci

      There is the GBD 200 with the MIP display, with Bluetooth and notifications, the difference in the price is not that much., and the classic square design is better than this elongated case. If you have a smaller wrist the GBD 200 is a way better option.

    • @yelyl136
      @yelyl136 Před 2 měsíci

      If you haven't got one, I think you'll like the GBX-100 or GBD-200 if you care about that kind of stuff. It has a much better display and over all design. It's just a shame that it also doesn't have tough solar. It would have been great not to have to change batteries in about 10 years. I have the GBX-100NS-1 and yes I have that notifications feature off 😊

Yep, that awful negative display, who would possibly want to buy a negative display that you can’t see unless it’s bright light and a certain angle and you squint, I honestly don’t know why Casio still make them especially on a small display like that, you’d struggle so much to see it, positive or MIP and that’s it, negative 🤬
