  • Thanks for dropping by the StormRider channel. In this video I take you through my personal journey with the G-Shock GA-2100 watch and the new G-Shock GA-2110. I explain why this model is so special to me personally and take you on a 22 chapter story from the start to the future. So if you are wondering why is the g-shock GA2100 so special? maybe this can help... Let’s take a look at the new Earth Tone colours while we are at it, in my opinion they are just getting cooler and cooler.
    As promised here is the link to show the grey and blue are special colours and seem to be discontinued: products.g-shock.jp/_detail/G...
    They both say ‘End of production’ on the CASIO Japan site:
    You can check the special colour blue Earth Tone: GA-2110ET-2AJF
    You can check the special colour grey Earth Tone: GA-2110ET-8AJF
    For more watch, CASIO and G-Shock reviews and thoughts, please see some of my other videos here: G-Shock • G-Shock
    For more video on the G-Shock GA-2100:
    • G-Shock GA-2100
    I also put a little Easter egg in the video, anyone recognise the specific location of the map and what you will find there? ;)
    StormRider is about beings strong, resilient, positive, fit and prepared.
    I am passionate about adventure and testing myself - some of my favourite ways to maintain physical strength are kettlebells and carrying heavy stuff long distances, i.e. ‘rucking’ and cycling on Zwift and my Wahoo Kickr. I am also training for triathlon. I use products that can put up with harsh environments such as CASIO G-Shock watches. I enjoy talking about this variety of topics. A little clues to the Easter Egg...think GTA V.
    If any of this is of interest to you please subscribe and let me know if you enjoy similar activities in the comments. Cheers...
    On the StormRider channel I try to give you an indication of how different G-Shocks operate, the best models for different uses, 10 things I wish I knew before buying a G-Shock! As well ex explain what I think are the best value G-Shocks on the market, I.e. what are the Top 10 Casio G-Shocks under $200 you can buy
    You will see G-Shocks transcend and become adopted by many different styles and cultures, just look at the Les Twins vs Rush Ball G-Shock real toughness Japan video where breakdancing professionals use G-Shocks, or see PradaG vs Smurf vs Stripes use G-Shocks. You see other athletes also use G-Shock such as Tiger Shroff
    I also explain in some videos How to set a G-Shock Watch including many models such as the (5081). How to adjust time on G-Shock watch analogue digital How to set G-Shock hands
    I am interested in the the art or making G-Shock watches
    I will sometimes post a video about ‘top G-Shocks’, such as Top 5: Casio G-Shock watches for men and women and specific situations
    I talk about special edition G-Shocks such as the Gorillas X releases
    I provide Functions overview of different G-Shock models such as the awesome GMW B-5000 Full metal square - Awesome! as well as the Classic G-Shock DW-5600 series. I hope you find these kinds of videos useful. Please let me know your favourite types :)

      I like the grey one alot, but I just love the look of the GA2100 virtual blue. I found one on the Kay Jewelers website a few days ago and ordered for MSRP of $99. I was looking to order it on the g-shock website, but it disappeared all of a sudden. The blue hands pop on the black dial and the lume on the hands is surprisingly good. I don't mind the negative display because the hands are so vibrant.

    Great video! I have one GA 2110 Yellow, brand new, perfect conditions, really beatiful, absolutely a piece of art. I choose him to use in a small family trip. So, I use the watch for the first time. Nothing happened. Everything absolutely fine and normal. Unfortunatly, maybe on the fouth day of use, it starts to discolorate! There is discoloration in several spots, on the straps AND the case around the buttons! Until now there is no explanation for this fenomenon. I have dozens of g shocks, since 1980, and nothing like this has ever happenned! I´m very disappointed, but still like the watch. Thank you!

I used to avoid non sapphire watches as I hate a crystal scratch, feel like the watch is ruined. LOL. I even put one on my Marathon JSAR just for extra protection. Why not? Can't hurt. The Marathon, the protector sits above the plane. But on the GA2100, the crystal is below the bezel and the protector fits in nicely and is not raised. They're only like $1 or $2 each if I remember. If you don't like it, take it off. I had a Luminox that I loved, orange indices on black dial. The third day of ownership my keys put a deep scratch from the 3 to the 12. I was so angry, never wore it again and sold it on Ebay. I would buy a Luminox again as I like them, and used the protector..

    If you can buy that many, try the GBD-200. Got one in black. I generally ignore the fitness stuff, sometimes look at the step counter. Installed the app to sync the time, then put it in airplane mode. After messing around with it, and feeling the vibration motor, I might just take it off airplane mode and turn on vibration for alerts. Only a few days in, but loving it. The display is 🔥. Love the overall look of it. Instantly makes everything else look outdated.

      Good question. I'd say very different for three main reasons: 1. The strap us much more lightweight 2. The watch itself is incredibly light, you don't really notice it on your wrist. 3. The depth of the watch is very shallow, I believe it's the thinnest G-Shock out there so it really is very incongruous. That's why I like wearing it with a suit as it fits under shirt cuffs so well. Totally different to the GG-B100 and Rangeman 9400. I think it's worth trying one one is a store and you will see it's a much more refined piece.

      Lifting weights doesn’t increase wrist size. At least not the most common exercises. It would have to be exercises focused specifically on the wrist, and even then, the gains would be minimal. Its like trying to increase your ankle size - not gonna happen. If anything, doing the opposite (getting fat) would increase wrist size more.
