Nice. I have the GWG-2000-1A3. It may not be made in Japan but compared to my JDM G-shocks, which are, built quality is very good. CASIO is an ISO / Six Sigma Global corporation so those comments about non-made in JAPAN G-Shocks being of lesser quality are just urban myths not based on any hard facts. Everybody is free to believe whatever they want, of course. It's their money.
I have a few Japanese gshocks, my observation; if it's from Japan (cased), it's good anyway. If it's not from Japan, it CAN be good. Mudmasters from Thailand and gsteels from China, for instance, are at least as good as Japan cased.
Smart move if you're actually gonna be using the watch. I've beaten up my 1K over the past five years. The band finally gave out and broke a few weeks ago. Cost less than $200US for parts to rebuilt it. It'll look brand new and will last another 5 years. It'd be much more more expensive to rebuilt the 2K.
I would like to see this on your "Whats inside" series and compare it to the GWG-1000. It looks good and I hope it's some what scratch resistant since those parts don't come cheap
I really like the 2k but I have to go through a metal detector to get into work and taking it off everytime I go in and out would be a nuisance. Might go with the 1k. (I have neither yet. GW-A1100 still going strong after 6 years daily wear.
It's a tough call I love my 1000 for certain things my 2000 for others sometimes I actually like my 9400 Rangeman and then when I have to go in the water my Dart Frogman comes with me. I just love my G-Shocks they never let me down! I take them over all the most fancy expensive watches on the planet without question.
It's always good to see how Casio has done to make G-shock more advanced in technology aspects, while the increasing price of them make me feel is it really necessary to buy them instead of buying those with cheaper price and with basic functions?
Finally bought a GWG2K and it is an impressive piece of technology. Right up there with the best G-Shocks. If there’s ever a GWG3K it’ll have a lot to live up to.
Great video, I like the design elements on this new mudmaster. I have the old gwg-1000-1a3er, and I recently compared to one of my friends new gwg 2000. I don't know why but I like the one piece resin bezel on the older model, the scratches are not that visible, and the shiny metal bezel is not the best in some conditions. The 2k is not that thick, I like that, but I find out the lug to lug is a little bigger on the new model, so the older one sits better on my wrist. Also the crystal is more recessed on the older gwg1k and more protected. So for outdoor activities and maybe military the older one is more practical. Another great alternative I use outdoor is the gw- 9400 rangeman. And right now I'm using the GW-9500 mudman. This new shiny mudmaster is nice, but for the urban jungle, so in my experience resin is great in absorbing shocks and scratches. My full metal g-shock GMW-B5000D-1ER is full of scratches and looks horrible.
Thank you for this video, I also bought this beautiful model and I love it, it is really expensive, but I do not regret it, I subscribed to your channel, and thank you for this beautiful rendering for this watch :)
Really enjoyed this video, and I have not heard any other reviewers mention many of your very well explained observations and forecasting future product design. Well done, and thanks
i owned GPR B1000 since first release and ended up selling it 5 months ago. what i dont really like is the navigation, we should use phone to getting from point to point and send it via bluetooth to the watch. i cant imagine doing this in middle of forest that dont have any signal. apart from these, this watch is excellent. three of my friends said its like a TANK in my wrist. i believe they will introduce new features of navigation in GPR 2000. i ended up getting fenix 5x used one. the navigation and display is so good to have, but if u want a long lasting watch, better buy a rangeman.
i dont understand why someone would want to replace scratched parts? Its a G Shock, surely its meant to have wear? All watches are, i have some fairly expensive automatics, all have some scratches on their bezels, its part of owning a watch. And if it's stainless steel, as long as it isn't gouged you can always polish most scratches out.
Hey what a great review. I own the exact model and it is beautiful and badass all at the same time. And for such a big watch it is extremely light and comfortable and razor accurate time wise.
The steel ring bezel makes the watch looks more premium than the old GWG 1000. But don't you think it is also more vulnerable to defect or scratch than the old one ?
Surely it is unless the ring is made out of titanium. I got your point but worrying about getting your GShocks scratched kinda steals the soul and purpose of the whole Gshock family, since its watch made to be used and abused.... and every scratch made can tell a story :)
The only difference with this watch against the GWG 1000 is the tough Solar included & metal used & other materials in its construction. Other wise All function are identical. Why spend for a very very similar watch. I’ll wait for the B2000 like I did for the 1000 upgrade to B 1000 ! 👍🏼
There is no reason to believe they would apply the complex bezel structure of the MRG-B5000 on their lesser models. The main reason why the bezel of the MRG is split up in parts is to make it easier to polish/brush the different surfaces and to create sharper, more defined edges between them. The complex build is also reflected in the high price, so let’s keep the affordable G-Shock watches affordable please!
I love GShock watches got 3 of them got the orange one I got in a Hawaii a few years ago they had the last one so its pretty unique for my collection. The only thing I dont like with these watches is changing the settings
I like your close-ups and angles. However, the glare off the highlighted watch from your lighting, is very distracting and somewhat annoying. It’s a beautiful watch and the constant glare takes away from your post. Thanks for the review.
I just bought the GWG 2000 with the sand colour band, and I wanna know where I can buy the gray and green bands? If anyone knows I’ll appreciate it very very much. Thanks
Had also noted the multiple bezel parts of the new MRG Square and wondering how they lock and stay together, much less how it could be stronger than one solid piece? Almost sounds like a gimmick for higher prices 🤔
Fantastic video and the background music is so relaxing!! Well done. I have a question, do you think if someone only has the budget to buy a GWG-1000 are they losing out a lot by not getting the 2000?
Gwg 1000 all the wey. Also 1k model just sit on my 16.5 cm wrist a lot better then 2k model, is big watch but wears very confortable, looks imo a lot better, 2k looks like shiny toy. I try both and thats is my opinion.
I got new bands, bezel and the metal city code bezel for my Gwg-1000 for about $180 US. Basically rebuilt it. It would be much more expensive to rebuild the Gwg-2000.
Does anyone know the exact model code of the GWG1000 @ 1:25/9:34 please? [to the right of the screen - I love the face and arms].... if they had that colour scheme in the 2000 model I would be screaming "take my money!"
Hey man. Are there any g shocks or mudmasters that can fit on a standard fabric stap without those bulky adaptors? I only know about the GA2000 but I'm not sure if I love it. Thanks! Also I'd love to see a video about which g shocks fit smaller wrists without weird gaps under the watch. 🙂
i have one "dislike" about gwg-2000 as i own many g-shocks included gwg-1000. what i dont like / understand is; gwg-2000 is "made in NOT Japan" this is why some part of watch dont look as good as gwg1000 , japan assambling is always feeling "premium" and this serie is king of master of G. this is what i dont like. anything else is stunning other than this
I actually got the gwg 2000 after your review. I didn't get the 1000. Have a a gpw 1000 and have wore it and enjoyed it immensely. What gwg1000 is that red dial face?
The 2000 is excellent but the might of the 1000 plus the amazing colors of the Maharishi version make an unfair comparison where the 2000 just can’t win
Didn't they just turn the gwg1000 and ggb100 into a gravitymaster and "2000" Not exactly gimmicky. but its the exact same watch? as far as technology goes.

gwg 2000 --> I am so disappointed! ... to be honest, such a watch for THAT price is a real disappointment, i tried the gwg 2000 for a week now and i have to say - what the fuck? You can forget about altimeters and compasses, every smartphone or other watch can measure that better, the sensors are years old and just junk. then a 600-700 euro outdoor watch doesn't even have a pedometer? seriously? sunrise and sunset times are gone too?! and that with a multi-band radio controlled watch? the watch has by far the fewest functions and costs an unjustified amount of money. ok, looks relatively good, but other values count. I've now decided for outddor sport and activity to go for a garmin epix or tactics, it makes you dizzy what they can do.
I returned this because it didn't adjust the time automatically (niether manually), and the thermometer is so sensitive and innacurate. Don't waste your money.
