    I bought the casio GW-5610 a decade ago and never used it when I decided to do so I was concerned that the rechargeble battery wouldn't work, so I charged the watch and the battery indicater went to H for high that was 3 years ago and has stayed there ever since, (G shock) arguably the greatest watch ever made.

    I have to admit, the initial reason it caught my eye was because it did favor that AP face quite a good deal... but that's not a bad thing! Inspiration is inspiration! I've been wearing G-Shock's for well over 15 years and this is the first one that I've really been excited about in quite some time.. perhaps even good enough to be their comeback watch, as they haven't really had a "hit" in a handful or so years...

    Give that GA-2100 the same features as my GW-7900B with solar and waveband 6 and Casio couldn't take my money fast enough. Practicality and visually appealing.

    Great to see an uncluttered face which is easy to read. For me the unfussy design is a winner, I really dislike the excess of text and overdone itsy bitsy sub screens. Really hard to read as you get older.

    I'd love to see a square that uses a full LCD display that can change from a full analogue dial with hands to the classic numerical layout. Kind of like an updated version of the 1983 Casio A201 that was featured in the movie Blue Thunder.

  • @childrolland
    @childrolland Před 4 lety +1

    I like very much the 1A1ER version of the watch. It looks like wearing an octagon black hole on your wrist. I imagine it in vanta black dial with normal black hands - just for contrast. It will be difficult someone to steal your time (watching in your watch) while you travel to work by the public transport.

    To me the biggest advantage of this analog/digital G-Shock is its overall thinness. The GA-100 and GA-800 series G-Shocks are chunky monkeys compared to this svelte companion of the square 5600 series.

      PS - if it does go away there is an app that simulates its signal pulses from your iPhone speaker. (Clock Wave).

      Keeping. It was never a serious threat -- just the usual games played when bean counters order an x-percent cut in an agent's annual budget, so the administrator comes up with the thing that will infuriate the public the most to insure maximum outrage. The HAM community was the most vocal in protest and the WWVB signal remains transmitting day and night as it always has been and for the foreseeable future.
