This is the best tutorial on how to setup and use the GA-2100. I got one a week ago and had no clue on how to calibrate the hands. Really useful to know how to get the hands out of the way of the display as well. The speed and detail of your tutorial is great!
I had changed my index piece to another color and after i put it back together, the hands were pointing wrong. Thanks, this saved it, i thought i had broken my watch.
I must admit I was intimidated at the thought of setting this watch when I received it a couple of days ago. But your tutorial made it super-easy. Thank you for posting this video, sir!!
Damn, I read the Casio manual and I was like WTF ?! Then I watched this video and I've been enlightened ! Everything became simple. Thanks for this great video !
das 1988 I agree, I bought it 100€, kept it 2 days to sell it 200€. This watch looks cheap, functions are basic and it doesn’t look like an AP royal oak ! At all 😂
Yeah it isn't an ap royal Oak. It's better. I honestly think that for the price, it looks better, feels better, and is more functional @@lydericmaes6278
Just got mine today love it slick and this video saved me time I set it up less than time min the professionals that was in the jury store, couldn’t even set it up. They are having technical shy to come teach them how to set the watches up . I told him to look at TH-cam lol
What a life saver. My analog hands were misaligned and this video helped me get back to showing the right time. Big thanks, definitely earned my subscription.
God, I am thankful for this man's video. I just got mine last night, 7/13/2023, around 8 pm. I was up until 2 am. watching multiple videos until I ran into this one. Thank you 🙏👍✌️
Just got my fist g-shock and wanted to learn more than what the simple instructions said, this video was perfect! Straight to what I wanted to hear with clear instructions and not at a pace that felt too fast! Thanks for the awesome video
Useful tip when you are in the world time zone mode, you do not have to wait until the city name finishes scrolling to display the time. You can skip this animation and display the time instantly by pressing the adjust button once. Another tip is if you accidentally click the mode button or are in a mode setting and you want to quickly go back to home without continuously pressing the mode button, you can press and hold the mode button to take you back to home quickly.
I just bought my first G-SHOCK, I got this same model in the video, thankyou soo much for this video, I would have never figured this watch out without your help.
This watch has arrived in my hands and I don't regret buying this watch at all. Honestly, this is the best watch I've ever owned. The first positive impression when I saw and wore this watch is that the design is very good and it fits my hand very well because the size is not too big but not too small either. Then my first negative impression was that it took me quite a while to look at this clock because the numerals on the watch were dark too. however, when I use it longer, I don't think this is too much of a problem because this watch has a light display.
I like this tutorial lot more than others, there's no talking about your neighbor stealing your pizza, your dog stepped on a bee blaaa bleed bluuuu, this guy uses every second on the tutorial explaining how's the game works without trash talk, thank you so much
Excellent video of the functions …. Thanks. Just bought this watch 😊

A useful tip for the hand shift function: press the light button FIRST and then the MODE button. It's more effective than trying to do it simultaneously. Also, do exactly the same to return them to their regular position. There is no need to click the mode button, as this function works independently.
I picked up the mid size today, but since it's the same as the Ga 2100 function wise, your video came in very handy. These watches are great and G-shocks to boot! How can you go wrong? Great video.
Awsome video, i went through the manual and i was completely clueless and almost gave up until i saw this video and everything made sense. Thank you alot for this video really saved some time for me and for many others!
Hey there!! Greetings from the UK!! I've just purchased one of these watches, couldn't be happier with it. However, I simply couldn't have set it up without this tutorial. The instructions it came with do show you how to set up features on your watch, but not in the order that they need setting up in. I followed your tutorial down to the letter and you couldn't have explained it better. Thank you so much for saving me the time and effort that I would otherwise have to have put in to get it up and running. P. S I went for the A3 (green dial and hour markers) as I wanted a change from sleeker looking watches and was after more of a rugged watch, so this is my first G- SHOCK - I have a feeling that it won't be my last🤣!! Thanks again👍
I do have a quick question for you..I set up all of the features as you said, and I remember setting up the date, but how do I see it from my home screen without having to adjust anything? I tried pressing mode a few times- but ended up having to scroll through countries and reset my time too. Any help would be very much appreciated 👍
Okay this video is the best 5611 tutorial so far! Way far easier and Understandable instruction then the rest of one demonstration videos here on TH-cam
I'm glad you found it helpful! I've also included a table of contents in the description for future reference so you can skip to a function you want to refresh your knowledge about 🙂
Had this video bookmarked and it has been incredibly helpful! I recently had it jump ahead 30 seconds and forgot how to adjust it till I watched this. By far my favorite watch and I will be wearing this for a loooong time!
check out 3:30 carefully. even you adjust the hands at 12:00 position, the space between right and left side is not equal. I have ga 2100 1adr. It has same problem. If you have this model, you can also realize this alignment problem when the minute hand at 45 position and some parts of dial. As I understand some products have this alignment problems and some doesn't have. It's a manufacture issue. However, it's obvious that ga 2100 serie is so cool and impressive. Thanks for the video.
Amazing video - just got this model for Christmas and the instruction manual too small to read! Without this video it'd be impossible to set my watch. It's so helpful and I'm very grateful.
This is simple but can be a little tricky at first. I picked up both a ga2100 red and gab2100 blue. The Bluetooth and the higher quality buckle makes the newer version the best option for me. However the RED is only available in the older version.
Just bought this one today and this video saved me from a huge headache. The people who made the manual do not know how to write for the consumer. Thank you!
Thanks for this video! Mine just came today, and the one I got was a Japanese import model and the manual had basically every language except for English in it. I was struggling hardcore with figuring everything out on my own. I'm not used to watches that you can't adjust with a crown haha.
Are there any difference with the Japanese model? I have a different model G shock from Japan. On that watch the Japanese version has multi band 6 sonic time keeping, but the USA version did not.
This makes me grateful for my no date automatics! It's a nightmare how illegible the LCD display is on these. I love the design and everything but having had one for 24 hours the display truly sucks! Grateful for my squares and regular gshocks!
This video was very helpful and I appreciate how detailed your explanation was. This watch was a nightmare to set up at first, being it my first Gshock as well. Thank You!
Just got my 3rd ga2100 and seting it up with you become somewhat of an Tradition 😂 Thanks for getting to the point and not wasting time appreciate it especially when rewatching 👍
Bought this watch and could not program. Took it to the jeweler I bought it from and he could not either. Watched this video and had it done the first time thru. THANK YOU !!!!!!!!
4:40 Daylight Saving Time (DST) is often wrongly referred to as “Daylight Savings,” with an “s” at the end. Other common variations are “Summer Time” and “Daylight-Saving Time.”
This video is clearly stated and very helpful. The instructions that come with the watch or on the Casio website are probably worthless for most people.
I just got the GM 2100B I was having a hard time setting the hands until I watched your video. This video was very informative thank you very much for your time to make this video it helped me out a lot
thank GOD for this video, i was going back and forth between my manual and different yt videos trying to figure out just how to change the time and date on my g shock. now i have every setting correct to my time zone and preferences! thank you so much !!! very helpful :)
Dude, i watched it from a pc that i didnt logged in my youtube account and after i watch the video i directly came here to drop a like and write this comment perfect tutorial video for new ga-2100 owners
Out of the blue, my GA2110ET-8A has the hands all screwy. Not sure why. Looked everywhere on this subject. Remembered how helpful your GWG-1000-1AJF video was... Found this. You saved me! Thanks for these informative videos.
I just bought the red version of this watch because that is all that is available right now. I am reviewing your video to get an idea of what I will need to do to change the battery three years from now! I've also saved your video to my favorites list. Thanks for translating a somewhat daunting manual into an easy-to-understand and -follow tutorial.
Thank u so much, i didnt get that my watch was set to a wrong time and i always tried to set the hands according to the world time. Thanks for showing us to have it at the home screen.
Just received mine today and this video saved me a lot of time. Very nifty index if you wanna come back to verify a function! Great video and watch. Cheers!
Great Video, I was not able to set the watch up with the manual provided along with it. Your video sorted everything. Thank you for sharing this information in such an interesting way.
Just bought one of these, this video saved me a lot of plowing through the manual and cursing the writers of said manual. Good job sir!!
Very helpful
I just did the same now!
Thanks just got one it doesn’t glow in the dark😡
Ikr the manual nearly had me in tears 🤣🤣🤣
Same
This is the best tutorial on how to setup and use the GA-2100. I got one a week ago and had no clue on how to calibrate the hands. Really useful to know how to get the hands out of the way of the display as well. The speed and detail of your tutorial is great!
I received mine today, thankfully there is this video. The UN should declare this video useful for the entire world.
😂😂😂Truuuee
I had changed my index piece to another color and after i put it back together, the hands were pointing wrong.
Thanks, this saved it, i thought i had broken my watch.
I must admit I was intimidated at the thought of setting this watch when I received it a couple of days ago. But your tutorial made it super-easy. Thank you for posting this video, sir!!
I just had to re-set for DST and again your video makes something that seems kind of intimidating, very clear and easy. I thank you again sir!!
Damn, I read the Casio manual and I was like WTF ?! Then I watched this video and I've been enlightened ! Everything became simple. Thanks for this great video !
I didn't even get a manual. Most annoying watch I have ever set. Not worth it.
das 1988 I agree, I bought it 100€, kept it 2 days to sell it 200€. This watch looks cheap, functions are basic and it doesn’t look like an AP royal oak ! At all 😂
Same here. Thanks dude!
Casio should hire you for their manuals!
Yeah it isn't an ap royal Oak. It's better. I honestly think that for the price, it looks better, feels better, and is more functional @@lydericmaes6278
My GA-2100 just arrived today, and your video was so clear and concise and saved me so much time fiddling around to try and set it. Thank you!!

Thank you for making the best G-shock tutorial videos. They really save me a lot of time and sanity.
do you wear this watch for fashion or your job??
@@trav-c137I wear it to school/Job
One of the best tutorials I've ever seen. I just bought the watch and was struggling to adjust it because there was no operation manual with it.
Thank you so much for this, just bought my first G-Shock watch and this helped me to set it up in no time!
Excellent video of the functions …. Thanks. Just bought this watch 😊

Does this watch have a chronometer function?? Where it counts up from zero, not a countdown
Yes, it's called Stopwatch and you can find the time code for that function in the description
@@WatchGeek oh great, I'm not a native english speaker so i'm fuzzy on some terms. Thank you good sir.
Haha neither am I so I understand you 😅👍
Just got my ga 2100 ... Been waiting and searching for it to be restocked in India .... This video was in point ....
Thanks for this video. it was clear and precise. The 28 dislikes came from apple watch owners
DON'T get me started on smartwatches.
Smartwatch owners .....
@@amg4861 what wrong with smartwatches?
They're not that smart.
Yo I got the Apple Watch but I wanted a g shock, trust me I didn’t click the dislike button lol
Best clear description on all tutorials about this watch on all TH-cam. With help off this video I figure out I bought a fake CasiOak. THANK YOU!
I picked up the mid size today, but since it's the same as the Ga 2100 function wise, your video came in very handy. These watches are great and G-shocks to boot! How can you go wrong? Great video.
5 years later, and still helpful. big thanks

I just bought one on Ebay. I will be back once it arrives for the refresher on all the great functions.
How much did you paid? I can't find one cheaper than $240 shipped
Bob Leung I was able to get a black/white for around $165 back in February
I just received a 5611 and this made my life so much easier. Thank you!
Me too! I got this for my husband...he spent hours trying to set it. I watched this..had it set in 5 min 😆
I am from India after checking more than 15 g-shock exclusives store finally I got it.🤯🤯
Congrats 😊👍
Price kya thi?
₹7495
bitch lasagna i cant find it
How much its cost in India?
I just bought this watch today. Could not resist when I found a triple black. It's a delight. Will be using this video for setup. Cheers...

This is simple but can be a little tricky at first. I picked up both a ga2100 red and gab2100 blue. The Bluetooth and the higher quality buckle makes the newer version the best option for me. However the RED is only available in the older version.
This tutorial is excellent. I used it to set up my new watch. I came back a week later to see how to permanently show the day and date.
This tutorial videos are a huge reason to be suscribed.
Very clear, thanks Watch Geek!

This is by far the best totorial! Every six months I look it up to switch between summer and winter time!
Perfect timing. I should be getting my ga2100 today or soon from my ad
Congrats 😊👍
AD :)
Just saved a lot of time. Thanks alot Mr! Great video, followed and liked. Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much for going through all the functionality of this watch ❤️ This let me set it up quickly without having to dig through the manual.
The most comprehensive video on setting up the GA2100. Many thanks for this.
got the same one out of japan, can't understand a word in the owner's manual. this helps lol.
Are there any difference with the Japanese model? I have a different model G shock from Japan. On that watch the Japanese version has multi band 6 sonic time keeping, but the USA version did not.
@@Gary-ib8dz the main differences is the packaging and and the owner's manual , other than that it's the same watch. at least with this watch

4:40 Daylight Saving Time (DST) is often wrongly referred to as “Daylight Savings,” with an “s” at the end. Other common variations are “Summer Time” and “Daylight-Saving Time.”
DST= Daylight Saving Time
ST = Standard Time
Daylight savings is the colloquial way to say it so it's not exactly wrong if it gets the idea across
This is the best GA2100 tutorial on youtube. Thank you sir, this really helped!
Tiny digital screen and complicated. I will stick with my good old squares lol.
Its more of a fashion watch rather than function..
This video is clearly stated and very helpful. The instructions that come with the watch or on the Casio website are probably worthless for most people.
I just got the GM 2100B
I was having a hard time setting the hands until I watched your video. This video was very informative thank you very much for your time to make this video it helped me out a lot
My day of the week dial did not match the date - this great tutorial solved my problem - thanks!
