    This watch is sooooo much sexier in person than on their website. Casio did fail big time to capture the spirit of this watch in their advertisement.

    As a recent owner of a GM2100-1A there's plenty to love but how I'd prefer a positive digital display so its nice to see Casio release more options and of the colours available this one looks really nice. As always a very informative and enjoyable review!

    "Brown" is often avoided but in this case Casio is unashamedly honest. I used to own an Astra in "Almandine Red", which at least 99% of people would describe as "brown".

    Hi, just bought this exact watch.
    It’s great but in no way does it wear as large as the measurements quoted.
    It feels more like a small 40 mm watch.
    The strap is more brown than gray, which it should be.

    Why have they not used the solar powered stainless case with rubber strap instead of the quartz…???

  • @ZERO_SVN
    @ZERO_SVN Před rokem

    I already bought 4 new watches recently and wasn't looking for another, but your review sold me on this metal casioak colorway. My only other Gshock is a silver GSTB400. I love it, but always wanted a metal casioak, especially one with better legibility. There are 3 new models just released with textile straps, but I think this one beats them all, especially with that positive display and beautiful dark rose gold bezel. The only thing I don't like is the strap so I'll throw on the black strap from my GST while I do some shopping. The base silver with orange strap looks super sharp, but orange probably won't work with dark rose gold. Anyway, fun times. So excited to add this to my collection.

    • @rich8305
      @rich8305 Před rokem

    The entire watch color reminds me somewhat of the classic and elegance of the 1940's era. Not sure if you understand what I mean by this. Kind of complicated to explain 🤔
    Regardless, it's absolutely stunning.

  • @dgrantreiter

    What is the gold bezel version you show that looks like a hammered texture or ball peened ?

  • @electron7659
    @electron7659 Před rokem +3

    I've been thinking of purchasing this watch. However, what worries me is the actual appearance of this watch when it comes to its precise color.
    For example, if you pause the video at exactly 5:05, you can compare the two color variations between the picture on the top left side to the one on the wrist.
    I very much prefer the color appearance of the one on the wrist in oppose to the picture on the top left.
    I'm not sure which one comes closest to the actual color in person. Can you please let me know which one it comes closest to, the one on the wrist or the one in the picture on the top left @5:05. Thank you.

    bought my GM-2100-1AER for £140 from AMZN uk in May. TBH , it's difficult to tell the time with silver hands and silver dial and I will probably flip it. With hindsight i'd have been better buying either a blue or green dial version

  • @jesusgarcia9351
    @jesusgarcia9351 Před rokem +5

    I think it's better than the new all steel ones (positive display, light weight, not so blingy) My only concern is if that bezel will indeed resist scratches. Would it look as nice after a year of daily use?

    • @TimeDrops_
      @TimeDrops_  Před rokem +3

      I know what you mean, I think this one will be a go-to for many! From experience with my other GM-2100s it should be just fine, perhaps I will do a "year on the wrist video"? :) Thanks for watching!

      Depends on your taste, me personally is using the green one for a month now more or less.. i chose the casioak metal bezel because i always wanted a watch where i can use for formal events ( but somewhere in between formal and casual, if you know what i mean? ) That's why i don't like the silver & black because it looks more casual for me.. my advice is that go for the one that would look good with your daily outfit 😉

    It's gorgeous, it looks brilliant, it's a shame that it doesn't last over time... From what I've read about Quartz watches, I'm somehow deflated. Automatic watches last a lifetime, but quartz watches last for a maximum of 10 years and the mechanism breaks down. I am a big fan of G Shock, I have 3 pieces, I stopped at 3 for this reason and I don't think I will continue to buy quartz watches.

    They can change the case material all they want, the dial is still butt ugly. AP Royal Oak didn't became famous only because of the hexagonal shape. 😄
