They should have just used a mip display. Instead the slapped two lcd screens above each other, which seems to me like a trick from the 1960’s. Adding to it’s thickness.
@@Serbithar beautiful and legible but, functionally lacking. They just aren’t fast enough to show 100ths of a second. And to me, when you use a stopwatch or timer, it’s a Gshock thing to me to be able to have that.
@@bkstarkey How many ppl need 100ths of seconds on stopwatch? I am a runner, I do need a stopwatch with many memory lap.

@@Serbithar I don’t disagree by any stretch. “Need” no. It’s just a g shock think for me. And to be fair, the MIP watches keep track of 100s, they just can display it. I’m just saying that there’s no reason to abandon traditional negative displays. There are some that love and hate both. Honestly, my biggest MIP gripe is that most of them are on watches paired with Casio’s terrible app.
Nice review of the new Mudman which I kind of like because its not monster size. But that display, what is point of a display that you cant read the time and as soon as you tilt the watch it looks blank. I will have a look at the positive display version if there is one.
I’m still rocking my gw-9330b mudman from 2013. It has negative display too, but next watch I won’t be getting a negative display unless it’s MIP. I’m looking for a new g-shock. I might wait until there’s a new updated rangeman model.
It looks awesome on your wrist! But yeah the screen just isn't for me. I'll wait for more MIP or ana dogi models. I love the look of the ggb100 but the fixed strap angle is way too big for my 6.5 inch wrist. There's too much of a gap.
Would love to have the black One with positive display it actually is way better even the duplex display have a compass purpleish color wich the negative doesn't have.
If I do buy one, I would get the positive display variation; from my experience of wearing the Rangeman negative displays, the time is hard to read in low light. Where there is direct sunlight, the negative displays are easy to read. However, I am going to wait until August for the USA release. I want to see this watch in person before I purchase a JDM watch. I want to see if I like it in person.
@@MrCarpen7er It's been like that for a decade now, lol. It doesn't bother me since I'm not a collector and have no interest in ever pursuing something dumb like that, as I actually want to wear all my watches.
I was considering this - positive display only - then I read an article on G Central regarding this and the Casio PRO TREK PRW-3400-1JF. I decided on the latter and am very happy with my decision. The Pro Trek feels premium. The bezel rotates. I like the colorway better - got the black with the positive display which offers nice contrast. For my needs, I think the Pro Trek was a better buy and clear value proposition. To me, the MudMan is the kid brother of the Mudmaster 2000 line. I love my Mudmaster's (TLC, Desert Sand and Maha) and am looking forward to a new release soon (GWG-2000CR-1A) which I will be adding. As a collector, to me anyway, there is a tendency to want to buy them all, but I think it's important to step back and really cultivate select pieces into my collection. Btw, love that Gravitymaster and bought mine bc of your video on it - even added the full Orange one recently. Great watch. Another point and one could make an entire video on it - why do we buy multiples of the same model watch? Anyway - Keep up the great work!!
I have the Pro Trek with the negative display and it's pretty usable because it has an STN negative display. I guess they couldn't use that with this since it has a duplex. Seems like they dropped the ball on this one. I'm definitely gonna wait until it drops in price. $400 is way too much considering my Protrek was $215 and it has nearly the same functions and it feels way more premium. The resin on this looks like cheap plastic.
@@andreww1212 Pro treks can be made with nicer feeling materials, because they're not G-Shocks and can't survive the same abuse. The resin on this GW-9500 seems solid enough, considering that Mudmasters have used similar constructions in the past, and have been known to hold up really well. I obviously wouldn't never pay full price for one, and I'm sure it'll be on sale for a much better price later on.
Mine arrived today & I have been so worried that I might get a fake even though I paid a decent price & researched the crap out of the company I eventually went for, the tags were all in Japanese as the company I bought through was in Japan as they have a reputation for honesty & the tags are identical to the ones you were reading out so that made me feel better. The only problem I have is I'm in Australia & we don't have the multi band 6 time thing over here so I will have to google out how to set my local time manually, I'm still very happy with my watch as I will be using it outdoors a lot, we shall see how it goes.
You can try using the JJY simulator app to emit multiband 6 wave signal from you phone speaker/earphone. If you're willing to go through all that hassle though.
Estás Hypeado jajaja El Hype no te ver hace que esa pantalla negativa es un desacierto en un reloj herramienta como ese.

Nice first contact of this watch My question is, how accurate is the compass and the other sensors like barometer or altimeter? I've heard/read that even in the newest _G-SHOCK_ those sensors are worse than average _Pro-Trek_ models which can easily cost the half or even less...

Just a ProTrek with a Gshock skin. Guess they were to lazy to design something.. And no MIP display. The GW-9500 is really a miss IMO. Maybe if Casio stops with releasing 1000 Gs models per month, they have time to deliver something proper..
Essential functions of a watch 101; Telling the time Passerby: "Excuse me, do you happen to have the time please?" GW-9500 owner: (Peering dimly at his negative display) "Umm gee, I'm not sure..it could be 9:50? Or perhaps 8:40? Is that 5:45? Hang on, let me try scrying mode.."
Casio LISTEN carefully, the days of giving us same old basic functions for an incredibly high price is over. These types of digital watches are a thing of the past. The NEW standard is the Garmin Instict 2 solar for a tough watch that is actually readable in negative. This watch is no better or different than the GW9400 rangeman which can be had for way less and is better.
Totally agree with Casio not learning to keep with the times. However, Garmin watches are nowhere near as tough or reliable as G-Shocks. The GW-9400 is a super popular watch, but the build quality is the worst among the Master of G lineup, and it's not something I'd ever recommend. MIP LCDs are way to go, but Casio is a Japanese company and the Japanese love to stick to tradition, even when they're supposed to move forward.
1. I can't do another digital. Mudmaster analog, Frog analog, everything analog... 2. negative display for my King BLACKout, my only digital Gshock. I'm in Ninja mode 3. I have a titanium coros that I use for activities......I'll pass on this mud 4. I have two mudmasters already.
@@StardustLegacyFighter well it is a good thing i went on holiday first because i saw them releasing the watch on the European stores so i am still going to order this watch soon 😁

@@He_isI I'm glad to hear that, but this issue is still way too common. The Mudmaster has a superior lug design, and that's what this new Mudman uses. GW-9500 > GW-9400 in terms of build quality, imo.
Good how you don’t recommend the negative display. People like yourselves should implore Casio to stop these awful displays. When I wanted a g shock GXW king in Britain I couldn’t get one that wasn’t positive display. I had to get one imported from Japan. No way was I putting up with a negative screen. Worst idea Casio ever had.
You're right, Casio has no clue what they're doing and is digging their own grave...sure 😂 Obviously, they sell and that's the bottom line. If they didn't, they wouldn't be putting them out. I really don't understand what is so hard about understanding that.
Seems like you're doing something wrong or have bad luck, because I've never seen any widespread issues about them on multiple ABC G-Shocks like the GW-9400, GWG-1000 and GWG-2000.
@@StardustLegacyFighter if you google about the triple sensors failing you’ll see it’s quite the epidemic. I’ve even taken it apart per some of the fix actions to clean it to no avail.
@@bon2198 Epidemic? Lol Out of several thousands of units sold, there are bound to be some issues, but that doesn't make it as common as you want it to be. I highly doubt that all of these triple sensor failures is down to a defect with the watch itself. It could be excess dust, water or whatever abuse these watches get subjected to.
Your positioning of the watch with the constant light reflection makes it harder to have a look at the watch face than the negative display itself. Shame
I got the negative, it’s rubbish. I took it back but g shock wants proof that there is something wrong with it. I took it back a week ago and all I’m getting is crickets.
even if there's something wrong with it, they'll still replace parts of fix, and you still get them same watch. I regret getting this negative display one, so to make my money worth, I just use it as a fashion timepiece, beat it and modify it without remorse.

There was a very bad focusing error in the video. In the past, your detailed shots would have been much clearer. Too bright. We had a hard time seeing the clock. Important feedback may be helpful.
@@rb2112 Because the old GPS one was so successful and can still be purchased... Oh wait, it got discontinued after only 2 years of production. What an epic fail of a watch, especially when the inferior GW-9400 can still be bought after 10 years of production.
Screen just lets the whole watch down for me. They should of used a MIP and it would of been amazing and more fitting for 2023. The case design is great but with that screen it looks like a protrek going through a identity crisis and I perosonally think it cheapens the mudman name.
Guys, neg displays are for tac ops. Dark settings, where you want to be discrete. Not regular every day, i think this looks cool, use.

@@StardustLegacyFighter im sucking up to her big time! fingers crossed
@@scottmark5345 Remember to buy her an extra special Birthday present if you end up getting that insane discount. 😁
There was a very bad focusing error in the video. In the past, your detailed shots would have been much clearer. Too bright. We had a hard time seeing the clock. Important feedback may be helpful.
The negative display is that bad, lol.
No MIP?! What a let down...
The glare is bad.
The negative display... pass!!!
the green one is so blur
Same ⬇️👍
I could buy rangeman with negative display on one condition: it's a MIP display, otherwise NO WAY...
@@rb2112 Because the old GPS one was so successful and can still be purchased...
Oh wait, it got discontinued after only 2 years of production.
What an epic fail of a watch, especially when the inferior GW-9400 can still be bought after 10 years of production.
Not solar power😅😢
Poor negative display 🙆♂️🤦♂️
not a good looking watch,looks like protrek is fitted in gshock bezel.
Really disappointing with that negative display. Casio can do better especially considering the price of the watch.
That display is awful… great review 👍
Can't see the display.
Terrible display. Bulky AF on the wrist.
@@JMK15 it is a g-shock after all
@@JMK15 A lot less bulky than most other Master of G watches, lol.
That display is almost unreadable at most angles.
Protrek-shock casio. I am bored of casio.
Screen just lets the whole watch down for me. They should of used a MIP and it would of been amazing and more fitting for 2023. The case design is great but with that screen it looks like a protrek going through a identity crisis and I perosonally think it cheapens the mudman name.
Negatyw to jak w tym filmie seksmisja widzę widzę ciemność
- porażka albo Mip albo pozytyw a najlepej GWG 1000
💪👍👊
It looks like allixpress watch
looks like skmei....
1st impression looks like skmei watch …
Looks can be deceiving...
@Boki Borovic I like the sand version, but yeah the GWG-1000 had a better design.
Not STN not MIP thats not good
How much better use stn negative display? I know they have it on the pro trek 3510
Is*
@@doncristobalaspee5925 negative STN display is very clear and very readable
bad wach
Absolute TRASH legibility. Negative displays suck. No matter what brands do. This technology is simply not there yet.
Another miserable casio negative display.
Screen is crap
