It’s funny, I’ve spent the last 20 years wearing G Shocks (firefighter), and in the last year, I’ve starting getting into automatic pieces. Now I want another G Shock!
Not a fire fighter but construction and overall outdoor guy. Been wearing g shocks but stopped because the older I get the less bulk I want. Also started getting into automatics but don’t want to wear them ripping trials or on the job site. I have a few nice ones. Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 is my main everyday out in the town wear. But I have been missing a tough rugged watch for my job or outdoor activities. This model is so much slimmer. I think it’s a 45mm so still bulky a bit but slim and it works well. Compared to other g shocks that are 57 mm. Ugh. I don’t miss those hogs.
I've had the mid range GM-2100B, with olive green strap/face and silver-metal bezel, for about 6 months now. It's been my main day to day watch. It's a very, very slick and pretty watch, looking much more expensive than it is, and has gotten more than its fair share of compliments. I love it!
Just needed a watch to be able to take a beating at my work (buiding big machines etc.) and still wake me up on time. Just got mine in and already loving it. It's just practical and well priced. I bought some watches at 10 times the price but now I know his is all I need.
I have the blue stainless Casioak and I absolutely love it. I wish more watches manufacturers used blue stainless. It adds a level of sophistication to the functionality of regular stainless.
The CasiOak is an amazing line. I didn't care to buy a G-shock simply because most of the ones I liked were quite large. The CasiOak delivers the right amount of everything in the perfect size. I have the BT/TS variant and I absolutely love it. The app works great and you can effortlessly set your watch without fiddling with the pushers. It has become my daily driver and you can wear it without worrying about damaging it or becoming a target for watch thieves.
Same. Daily beater. LOVE the find my phone ability, however i stupidly went for the green & the display is pretty much invisible most of the time, & the lume on the hands is pathetic. Other than that, I love it. It's replaced my 5800 which has survived some harsh conditions, & looks like its going to last the distance
@@moisturisedgnome1181 just went with yellow, love it and positive display and overall readibility superb, but most of all its perfect size, not too big like most gshock were and analog which i love
I have recently bought a GM2100 green dial which is absolute class and beautiful to look at..after wearing it for a couple of times the only con i could notice is the negetive display its bit difficult to read..but i would 100% recommend the watch for ppl who are going for their first gshock..it puts a smile on my face everytime i wear it
I just got one of these as a daily watch I can wear to the gym, on hikes, at work, etc. I usually wear mechanical pieces, but I really like this watch. I opted for the Bluetooth 2100 model in steal black. The watch wears really nice and offers some great features especially for the price point. I used to think less of these watches but I really like mine. Thanks for the great vids Ted.
I would recommend the GMAS2100. It is 2-3 mm smaller than the original. It’s also 20% lighter and slightly thinner than the original. Ideal for 6.5 wrists and below, but try before you buy.
Same! I ended up preferring the size of the GMA-S2100 for day to day wear. A friend has the standard size, and although I like his, I was very happy with the smaller size.
Modify this model with a aftermarket metal case bracelet and you have the perfect size casioak for any size wrist imo, in white it's the best looking 😊
For 99 bucks I have 2 and you can not go wrong with these. You get that gshock quality without the bulky gshock look that some other analog-digital models have. I prefer the resin case as opposed to metal so Im looking for my next one to be a solar/bluetooth model. Hoping 2023 they will have some cool colors coming out. I also prefer the positive display as opposed to negative but its not a deal breaker.
I had never owned a G-Shock until I bought the GA2100-1A1 last year ... and I love it! The darker face takes a little getting used to but looks great on a watch that has almost perfect dimensions and depth, giving it a lower profile, 'stealthy' look. Last month I purchased the GM2100-1A (stainless case / resin strap). It's also a beautiful watch with a great band but note that part of the case, near the lugs, are shinier than Casio's product photos would indicate - closer to chrome than to brushed stainless.
@@grock_lee Pictures will do far better than my description but the GA2100-1A1 is an all-resin, kinda ‘blacked out’ Casioak - a low profile, very clean look … whereas the GM2100-1A has a metal case and face on a thinner black resin band. The case is shiny and the faced has a brushed metal look. Very different from one another; each is very nice.
I own a GM2100 which my wife thinks looks great and I agree - brilliant, love it. By far its biggest drawback is legibility. I often have to do a double take to tell the time in even normal, well lit conditions. Digital display is little use with anything less than perfect eyesight. So would suggest trying on if this is important! Just bought a G Shock square which is better for everyday use.
I thought this was just me! 3 seconds usually isn’t enough time for me to tell the time and it sticks bc I work in the dark for the most part and like to have a watch to tell the time when I wake up before the sun is up. The lume lasts about 30 mins after so basically useless. And the hand showing the day of week seems like wasted space and should’ve been digital. I still love the silhouette and aesthetics of the watch but not as practical as I thought it’d be.
Just bought my first g shock 2 days before Christmas. I went with the GA-b2100BNR in ignite red and black. I agree with teddy in stating this is the one to bring over people who maybe never considered a Gshock in the past. It’s not so bulky and crazy looking as some of the others. So far I absolutely love it. I wear it daily to work as a carpenter in NYC and it stands up to quite a bit of abuse. I have quite a few watches from a variety of manufacturers and price points, but my new casioak is dominating wrist time as far as work hours go. There’s a lot to love about these and for $150 it’s kinda hard to say no or find a good reason not to buy one.
How does the mineral glass hold up while doing construction? I want to buy one as well, I work construction as well but I'm an electrician. I deal with a lot of sharp metal and I'm curious to know if the mineral glass will be able to withstand it or if it will be scratched to death. I think I'm going to buy one anyway and put a screen protector on it.
Hey, I'm thinking to buy this watch and have a question- Can we set/change the time in watch itself instead of going through phone. I just want to use it like a normal watch without any connection to bluetooth. Will the time still keep up?
I love my Casioak. I have the basic GA 2100. Mossy green edition. It was a little difficult for me to set up, but I got thru it. I am a bus driver, and it is a very popular drivers watch. Nothing wrong with the basic model. Works well, takes a beating. Affordable for us workers.
Great addition to the GSHOCK line, bought the GAB2100C-9A (Yellow) last year. Great summer watch. Wore it to the gym and beaches. Held up really well. Perfect.

As someone who’s taste leans more towards mechanican/analog watches, I totally agree this watch fulfills the criteria I’m looking for in a watch. I own the yellow GA-2110SU-9AER which I think is stunning (though ywllpw can be hard to fit with outfits…), but for someone that is not into smart watches, this is the perfect watch, since there are basically all functions you need, except maybe tracking heart beat
Highly recommend one of these. I always wanted to try a Gshock and I bought one and love it. these are perfect because you get that look in a cleaner slicker but still manly profile
You forgot to mention one of the biggest differences between the ga-2100 and the ga-b2100; while both are battery powered, the newer b2100 model comes with the tough solar feature so you'll never have to replace the battery like you would with the original 2100.
I bought the full metal BM-2100 to wear since I need a watch that is tough for my work, but also dressy. Originally it was supposed to be my work watch, but it does not leave my wrist, and looks great even in casual or dress clothes. It is durable, but its size and polished finish make it stand out in a subtle way and it compliments any outfit.
I have a G Shock which I love. My 2100 came in the mail today. I am not very technical so it took me a while to get the right time set but I really like it and it makes my old G Shock appear dated. Teddy does a great job in explaining the watch
My wife bought me the GMB2100D for Christmas and I love it. Surprisingly comfortable and it looks great. Like Teddy say the lume is not great and with the charcoal model it can be difficult to see in low light conditions without hitting the light.
I got a GA-B2100C-9A. I'm pretty happy with it except I didn't like how the yellow bezel & strap look in person. It looked nicer in pictures. So I bought a used GA-2100-1A bezel & strap to replace my current yellow ones. It's compatible & I'm very happy with how it turned out.
I own 2 GA-2100's and I love them. I have the GA2100-1AJF (Black w/ Off-White dial markers) and the GA2110ET-8A (Light Gray w/ Dark Gray bezel). These are my daily watches and I cannot get enough of them. The ability to own both for under $200 and complement pretty much any outfit and situation in life makes these, for me, the best value proposition in the watch world today. They look fantastic deliver a durable quality piece that belongs in every collection.
I have 2 of the GA-2110's (the Core ones)- the grey one with positive display, and the blue one with negative display. What I don't like about the new solar and bluetooth ones is that they have got rid of the day display on the left hand dial. I would ideally like solar and bluetooth with positive display and day dial. They don't seem to do that currently sadly.
I've had the same G-Shock for the last... 15 years? Something like that. Bought it right after I got out of the Navy. A GW-530A. Been an absolute beast of a watch. Even sat in a closet for the last 5 years or so until I pulled it out recently, thinking I was gonna need to replace the battery after all that time. And while it was dead, a couple days propped up in the front window and it's fully charged again lol. Can't kill these damn things! All that is to say that, while I love this little watch, it's been time for an update for a while. So I just bought one of the GA2100s in the Neobrite colorway, from your site. Figured you do good work here, should show a little support, and your typical watches are well outside my price range! Looking forward to the new watch coming in in the next few days!
Any of these watches would be a great addition to any collection. I personally have the gm-2100 with the metallic frame in the midnight fog colour. Absolutely love this watch and affordable too. Also, definitely a good watch to bring out during vacation if you don't feel like getting mugged😁👍
I bought the g-shock following your enthusiastic coverage and I ended up returning it. I just hated the small arrows (relative to to dial) and the resin band (which increased perspiration). I am enjoying my pro-treak, which I feel is a better watch
I own the GA-B2100, tough solar means I don't have to worry about a thing for at least a decade so in my view it's worth the extra 50-60 bucks. Being a fan of mechanical watches I don't own any other G-shock watches. Before purchasing it I thought it might be too bulky but Teddy was spot on about the dimensions, the watch wears much smaller than you'd think. After a few months of wearing it I have to say its very durable and gets the job done. The only negative thing I have to say is that I find the light underwhelming and not enough in certain dark environments.
I always take 2 watches (something dressy and something for doing activities) when I go on vacation and my Casio oak is always one of them. So durable and stylish and I normally do some sort of swimming on vacations and my casiooak is a champ in water.
I personally like the original black square more, I've had one for 10+ years, it has seen a lot and it still works great! I've only changed the battery once. I don't like models that are more bulky, which is not the case, so this 2100 isn't bad at all, but to me the square is the best g-shock.
I acquired the GA2100BWP-2A 'Blue Porcelain' version with Chinese dragons engraved on the back case. C$130 at HBC. Looks great, keeps almost perfect time. The blue swirly coloured strap feels high quality. Amazing value.
My ideal future CasiOak would feature all of the functionality of my GA-B2100-9aer, but with top-notch lume on the hands and the hour indices, covered by a sapphire crystal. I don't need a metal body or strap, but I do appreciate a face and hands with higher contrast and readability in the dark without using the LED. Also, as much as I enjoy the bright yellow of my model, I would like a high-contrast face in black or gray.
Love my slate Casioak watch, my go to weekend warrior. Great video and informative. Will buy one of the lesser priced Casioaks form my son’s first watch to start his collection.
My preference is the entry level base model. The only thing that I don't love about it is the resin strap, which is not the most comfortable strap, but for the price its a pretty small issue. I use this as my go-to for going to the gym, doing yard work, etc. and it works great. My two favorite Casio's are this one and the DW5600BB-1
Jay's and Kay's have aluminum strap adapters for the GA2100. I own 3 GA2100's and I use Jay's and Kay's adapters for more comfortable strap choices. They offer 20 or 22mm choices.
I went with the bluetooth versions for the solar charging. To me that was the sales pitch more than BT. Really good watches. Wear mine at the gym/sports to spare my mechanicals the stress.
Teddy, I want to say thank you for sharing your ideas on your TH-cam channel and through your articles. My knowledge of watches has increased so much since I started following you. On suggestion I have is that I would like to see you do some interviews with the owners of some American microbrand companies, like Detroit Watch Company, Weiss Watch Company, and Vortic Watches like you did with RGM Watches. It seems the last 10 years have been the beginnings of an American watch manufacturing renaissance movement. These brands are definitely underrated, and it would be interesting to see you use your platform to draw attention to these companies and this movement. I can imagine in another 5-10 years, there will be a American movement manufacturer and truly 100% made in America watches.
yes! love my original ga-2100. Had it on a modded royal oak case and then returned it to stock. Was considering a solar/quartz GAB-2100 , still debating (i love having a date complication). I dont love the price jump for the all-steel version.
@@davidf3974 See the steel dial is worth it for me, but the jump for the steel full case isn't enough to warrant it! I found a non-Royal Oak style metal case that looks better aftermarket as well, may pick it up
I like the black solar powered one. the one with the red hand... I just wish they made a bigger version.. Id love the watch if it was a little larger and thicker, to feel more like a g shock.. and also it would help with visibility because they can make that tiny digital display larger.
I have a green GA-B2100 (solar powered) and I love it, it wears so comfortably, offers a bunch of "complications" and looks great. I also have a "royal oak" looking metal case and bracelet for it, which looks great but does not wear as comfortable.
I got the green aswell, i found the LCD display was pretty much ineligible most of the time. A positive display would've served better i think. Also lighter hour indices and/or better lume on the hands would have been nice. Its a shame they only make the 4 colours in BR/Tough solar atm. Some of the basic models have much nicer displays.
I love this g shock but my favourite one ever is the ga-100 I have one and I have been treasuring it and maintaining it for a bit. It’s a beautiful watch and I truly reccomend it for experienced watch enthusiasts and people getting into the field. Nice video teddy
I have the Blue Bluetooth Solar. It runs great as you mentioned, like a 41mm. Excellent buy, outstanding quality watch with lots of features!! The extra $50 from the base model is money well spent. Great video!
I actually prefer my entry level "jellyfish" version. Unlike the more expensive ones, it easily shows you the day of the week at 9 o'clock. That's more useful for me than the mode indicator seen on the more expensive models. It's my go-to watch whenever I'm doing anything active or outdoorsy.
Agreed. I really want a solar Casioak with a positive display that shows the day of the week in dial form like the less expensive non-solar models. I don’t need the dial that tells me the mode
@@carsaregood911 that was a worry when I got it, but 8 months in, with regular use, and it's still clear as day. If it does start to yellow too much in the future, it will be a perfect candidate for a mod project.
Thank you for all the great content about watches. I am a 'watch wearer' rather than a 'watch collector'. Once I settled on the CasiOak, to get the analog/digital hybrid, there seemed to be three distinct decisions to be made: * Resin or metal case * Third dial: day-of-week or mode/Bluetooth * Positive or negative LCD It turns out there are very few options with the metal case, day-of-week dial, and positive LCD. The only one I found is in the Midnight Fog collection. At least it made my final decision easy! Now I will stop watching Teddy's videos before I decide I *need* a dress watch! 🤣
@@johndoe-vc1we Yes, I got that one after I had made my original comment. Later this month, I'm going to go to a local watch repair shop and put the movement into the GM2100BB-1A case and strap. But my favorite, and what I'm wearing right now, is the full-metal GMB2100BD-1A. The legibility is a bit challenging, but I like having to be intentional when looking at the time.
Just got my G shock G steel and the instructions to set it were really confusing to me. Not sure why I couldn’t get it to set the time, but thank you for helping as now I have a watch that actually tells the correct time rather than being a novelty.
I only had a g shock as a kid and as an adult I’ve only ever bought mechanical watches. I now have 3 of the ga2100 watches and bought one for my dad as well. They’re awesome for the price
I got the "ladies" version last week to fit my male wrist as it fits my wrist best. Got the black and rose gold for best viewing of the hands. Overall, a great G-Shock option. The downsides, buttons are a bit awkward to use and only lume on the hands was a disappointment
I have two - the grey and the red and am looking at a black with green highlights. These (as Teddy stated) got me back into watches and I now also own a GA-110Y Jason and looking at a few others. Thank you as always for the great content TB
I have those two as well, they're both FANTASTIC (though the digital display on the red is slightly less legible than the grey). The next one on my list is the green women's offering because of the smaller case size.
I have the 2100 black resin with white markers and best G-Shock I’ve owned for my wrist with the lower profile. I’m on the coast in the southeast US and routinely use mine for anything with a damage risk including surf fishing. I clean it with a brush periodically and after exposure to the saltwater. Zero issues and highly recommended as a durable, yet nice looking beater.
Love my small but growing g shock collection. Huge fan of the Bluetooth in my MTG. I thought it may just be a novelty but to have an analogue watch that adjusts the time within a few minutes of getting off a plane is brilliant. I only own one casioak which I love as my holiday and weekend watch but find if I'm travelling to a different time zone I don't take it so I don't have to change the time.
@@kdubllu hrmmm maybe I just haven't worked it out then. It took me enough just to set it the first time ahaha. Still I love that the Bluetooth models just work faultlessly.
I always wanted a G Shock, but they always seemed so big.(thick). I bought a ‘Casioak’. Fantastic watch, not just for everyday use, but it’s a great ‘outdoor’ watch. All the best.👍🏾🇬🇧
Hey Teddy, I have 3 2100's in my collection. GM2100-1A, GA2100SKE-7A and a GAB2100BNR1A. I love them. Smaller profile made them easier to wear on my smaller wrist although my MudMaster still ranks up there with my favorite G-Shock's. Keep up the good work, I appreciate that you cover affordable watch along with the not so affordable one.
Can you please make a review of the Casio Pro Trek Mammut edition? It seems the prices have jumped to 800-1000 on secondary market in some places. It looks like such a great timepiece as well one to buy and hold. Please do a review on it.
Its a Great watch, with a third party Mod like elaborated in many other videos the casioak really pops of. I bought myself this mod from a site called skxmod or so and let me tell you quality is crazy. I heard some people also buy these mods at Aliexpress. But like I said these mods are nothing to be laughed at
I have several 'Casioaks', so I obviously love them, my latest is a GA-B2100 on which I've added/used an 'aftermarket/third party' metal bezel/shroud kit to get the full AP 'Off Shore' effect. I don't think that you can get a better do it all everyday watch for the money?!
Just bought a GA-2100CA-8ACR and am taking it on a snorkeling trip this weekend. Very comfortable to wear but my half century old eyes struggle a bit with the small digital display in dim lighting (not a big deal). All the other G Models with a round case were too wide and thick for my preference/slim wrists but the shop owner knew I'd like this one and she was right. Thanks to my watching your reviews and learning about the watch before shopping I was open to trying it. Now I have something I like to wear other than just something inexpensive to go in the water with. Much appreciated and hope to get my next watch through your site.
I’m in the market for one of these right now. I love the $99 versions simplicity on the face and lack of Bluetooth logo… however the Bluetooth model upgrades it to solar which I also love. Teddy you gotta get more stock of these on your site. I’d love to buy it through you with all the help you’ve given me but the available colors right now ain’t it for me lol thanks for everything you do
Important to know also: if you get a lighter colored model the bezel will discolor. I got a face colored 2100, which looks great, but it has marks all over it. I wish I would've gotten the yellow version with a black bezel
Sad to see you didn’t highlight the GMAS2100 or bring in those versions to show off. I’m a female and bought the smaller nude CasiOak version and love how it wears on my small wrist. Ladies this watch is great for us too!
A168W & GA 2100 green...it's been almost an year and half I've bought them at the same time with the first stipend I've recieved in my intership and they'll be with me till the end of my life and may be next gen too 😉
Been watching your videos for a while now and was inspired to start a collection. Started with the amzwatch, its specs for price and clean looks, now am looking for a dress watch to add.
My blacked out gab2100-1a1 is my go to watch. It’s insane knowing that you’re always on dot time & that the solar battery is going to last years upon years
I think the GA-B2100 is the perfect entry if you want to start with this series. Im a big fan of gshock. And having Bluetooth connection and tough solar feature in it just makes sense. Its a plus if gshock would soon develop and add multiband 6 to the 2100 series. But if you have a specific color of watch that you have been looking for, the basic GA-2100 is for you. It have a ton of colorways. But for me, I'm aiming for GM-B2100BD the black full metal casioak. it has everything that I love with gshock. And it's a stunner. Im looking forward for a MRG version of the casioak, though im not sure if I can afford one. Hehe! P.S. I think you missed the midsize casioak, better for women. And it's nice to wear pair designs as couples' watch
May I ask a question: what does the Bluetooth do? Is it like the multiband 6 feature on other G-Shocks that updates the time automatically (and feedback other info to your phone)? Edit: I guess my question was answered in the video lol
Love the solar, hate the Bluetooth. It's a pain to pair, and takes way longer to update the time when I travel through my phone than I could do if that "feature" wasnt there. All the effort to poor and open the app for essentially nothing. It's a literal waste of time (something a watch is meant to help prevent if possible).
The GA2100 was my first ever G Shock and I opted for the clear or “Jellyfish”, I believe it’s called, color way. Very cool and unique but the strap has gained a pretty evident yellow tint. So I personally would not recommend that specific color way. I’m probably going to go for the solid red, black, or grey!
I enjoy your channel very much and your format is very well presented and easy to watch. Re: Casio, I was never a fan but I recently picked up a G-Shock “steel” limited edition model and I find it very comfortable to wear and I can use it in multiple situations. Surprisingly versatile and I’m enjoying my purchase
Own an All Black GA 2100 - Despite being pitch black, it gives me a lot of compliments being unique. After all, I wear it for compliments and aesthetics, not for time.
Just grabbed one yesterday. It's my first G-shock. Actually, it's my 2nd non smart watch watch. The other being a Lego watch. I got the virtual world colour way Casioak. Love the subtle pops of purple and pink. Legibility is an issue with the dark dial and negative digital display. It was take some getting used to, not to just tilt my wrist and have the time light up. But so far I like the look and feel. I could see gifting one too as it's not expensive, is fashionable, trendy, and sort of timeless being a casio g-shock.
Got one for a bit and returned it because it was too hard to read at a glance. This is with the grey version. I don't know how people read stealth versions. The day is really hard to read. Also, I don't understand why digital window has different fonts. If someone knows the answer, I'd appreciate it. I'm really happy for people who get lots of joy out of it. My hats off to them.
Few Questions About Solar: 1. When fully charged, how long will the battery last? 2. How long does it take to charge from dead to full? 3. How long will the solar battery last before it needs to be replaced? Can it be replaced? If so, how much does that cost? Thanks for the great video. 👍
I own a GA2110 I love my casioak. I'm a construction worker and I put my head through the wringer, if your looking for a stylish yet tough watch your on the right track. Give it a try. They are not that pricey.
I bought an inexpensive ana/digi Casio AQ-S810W Solar 10bar for almost nothing, to see if I liked the combination. I smooth sanded off the white painted text and black Sharpied the recessed lettering, so I now have an all black case. I'm now searching, (but can't find a reason) to get the Casioak Solar at $150. One quirk is that the second hand moves/lurches 3 times a minute, not like a perpetual minute hand.
It’s funny, I’ve spent the last 20 years wearing G Shocks (firefighter), and in the last year, I’ve starting getting into automatic pieces. Now I want another G Shock!
both "worlds"...?!😉
Circle of life
i also wear g shocks as a firefighter!! literally has survived anything under my bunker gear
Not a fire fighter but construction and overall outdoor guy. Been wearing g shocks but stopped because the older I get the less bulk I want. Also started getting into automatics but don’t want to wear them ripping trials or on the job site. I have a few nice ones. Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 is my main everyday out in the town wear. But I have been missing a tough rugged watch for my job or outdoor activities. This model is so much slimmer. I think it’s a 45mm so still bulky a bit but slim and it works well. Compared to other g shocks that are 57 mm. Ugh. I don’t miss those hogs.
I've had the mid range GM-2100B, with olive green strap/face and silver-metal bezel, for about 6 months now.
It's been my main day to day watch.
It's a very, very slick and pretty watch, looking much more expensive than it is, and has gotten more than its fair share of compliments.
I love it!
Just needed a watch to be able to take a beating at my work (buiding big machines etc.) and still wake me up on time. Just got mine in and already loving it. It's just practical and well priced.
I bought some watches at 10 times the price but now I know his is all I need.
I have the blue stainless Casioak and I absolutely love it. I wish more watches manufacturers used blue stainless. It adds a level of sophistication to the functionality of regular stainless.
I’ve got that one also 👍
Fans of this or not (I don't own one) but Casio certainly found the formula to please almost everyone. That's great job.
The CasiOak is an amazing line. I didn't care to buy a G-shock simply because most of the ones I liked were quite large. The CasiOak delivers the right amount of everything in the perfect size. I have the BT/TS variant and I absolutely love it. The app works great and you can effortlessly set your watch without fiddling with the pushers. It has become my daily driver and you can wear it without worrying about damaging it or becoming a target for watch thieves.
Positive display??
For the yellow BT/TS Casioak yes its a positive display and looks quite good
I have the Casioak and it’s a best G-Shock option for my wrist with a lower profile. Highly recommend.
Same. Daily beater. LOVE the find my phone ability, however i stupidly went for the green & the display is pretty much invisible most of the time, & the lume on the hands is pathetic.
Other than that, I love it. It's replaced my 5800 which has survived some harsh conditions, & looks like its going to last the distance
@@moisturisedgnome1181 just went with yellow, love it and positive display and overall readibility superb, but most of all its perfect size, not too big like most gshock were and analog which i love
I have recently bought a GM2100 green dial which is absolute class and beautiful to look at..after wearing it for a couple of times the only con i could notice is the negetive display its bit difficult to read..but i would 100% recommend the watch for ppl who are going for their first gshock..it puts a smile on my face everytime i wear it
It does look very attractive. Im deciding between your green one and the BT/Solar GA-B2100-1A. Doesn't look as good but has a positive display
I just got one of these as a daily watch I can wear to the gym, on hikes, at work, etc. I usually wear mechanical pieces, but I really like this watch. I opted for the Bluetooth 2100 model in steal black. The watch wears really nice and offers some great features especially for the price point. I used to think less of these watches but I really like mine. Thanks for the great vids Ted.
I would recommend the GMAS2100. It is 2-3 mm smaller than the original. It’s also 20% lighter and slightly thinner than the original. Ideal for 6.5 wrists and below, but try before you buy.
Same! I ended up preferring the size of the GMA-S2100 for day to day wear. A friend has the standard size, and although I like his, I was very happy with the smaller size.
@@enesturhan3435 thats just a marketing strategy, buy what suits you
Modify this model with a aftermarket metal case bracelet and you have the perfect size casioak for any size wrist imo, in white it's the best looking 😊
The gray is awesome. I think it goes really well with more casual fits
For 99 bucks I have 2 and you can not go wrong with these. You get that gshock quality without the bulky gshock look that some other analog-digital models have. I prefer the resin case as opposed to metal so Im looking for my next one to be a solar/bluetooth model. Hoping 2023 they will have some cool colors coming out. I also prefer the positive display as opposed to negative but its not a deal breaker.
Agree. I keep waiting and waiting for more solar, positive display. Would love a blue option with white markers ❤
The GM2100 is an absolutely brilliant watch. Functional, beautiful, comfortable, sturdy, it has everything. All I would add is sapphire.
I had never owned a G-Shock until I bought the GA2100-1A1 last year ... and I love it! The darker face takes a little getting used to but looks great on a watch that has almost perfect dimensions and depth, giving it a lower profile, 'stealthy' look. Last month I purchased the GM2100-1A (stainless case / resin strap). It's also a beautiful watch with a great band but note that part of the case, near the lugs, are shinier than Casio's product photos would indicate - closer to chrome than to brushed stainless.
Me too....and I love it!!
Whats is the difference between gm2100 and ga2100?
@@grock_lee Pictures will do far better than my description but the GA2100-1A1 is an all-resin, kinda ‘blacked out’ Casioak - a low profile, very clean look … whereas the GM2100-1A has a metal case and face on a thinner black resin band. The case is shiny and the faced has a brushed metal look. Very different from one another; each is very nice.
@@JBM07XKR which would you pick if you had to
@@3than1011 The GA2100-1A1
I own a GM2100 which my wife thinks looks great and I agree - brilliant, love it. By far its biggest drawback is legibility. I often have to do a double take to tell the time in even normal, well lit conditions. Digital display is little use with anything less than perfect eyesight. So would suggest trying on if this is important! Just bought a G Shock square which is better for everyday use.
I have one as well. I've gotten many compliments. Cool looking watch
I thought this was just me! 3 seconds usually isn’t enough time for me to tell the time and it sticks bc I work in the dark for the most part and like to have a watch to tell the time when I wake up before the sun is up. The lume lasts about 30 mins after so basically useless. And the hand showing the day of week seems like wasted space and should’ve been digital. I still love the silhouette and aesthetics of the watch but not as practical as I thought it’d be.
Just bought my first g shock 2 days before Christmas. I went with the GA-b2100BNR in ignite red and black. I agree with teddy in stating this is the one to bring over people who maybe never considered a Gshock in the past. It’s not so bulky and crazy looking as some of the others. So far I absolutely love it. I wear it daily to work as a carpenter in NYC and it stands up to quite a bit of abuse. I have quite a few watches from a variety of manufacturers and price points, but my new casioak is dominating wrist time as far as work hours go. There’s a lot to love about these and for $150 it’s kinda hard to say no or find a good reason not to buy one.
How does the mineral glass hold up while doing construction? I want to buy one as well, I work construction as well but I'm an electrician. I deal with a lot of sharp metal and I'm curious to know if the mineral glass will be able to withstand it or if it will be scratched to death. I think I'm going to buy one anyway and put a screen protector on it.
Hey, I'm thinking to buy this watch and have a question- Can we set/change the time in watch itself instead of going through phone. I just want to use it like a normal watch without any connection to bluetooth. Will the time still keep up?
@@sriraam1010 Yes you can.
I love my Casioak. I have the basic GA 2100. Mossy green edition. It was a little difficult for me to set up, but I got thru it. I am a bus driver, and it is a very popular drivers watch.
Nothing wrong with the basic model. Works well, takes a beating. Affordable for us workers.
Great addition to the GSHOCK line, bought the GAB2100C-9A (Yellow) last year. Great summer watch. Wore it to the gym and beaches. Held up really well. Perfect.

As someone who’s taste leans more towards mechanican/analog watches, I totally agree this watch fulfills the criteria I’m looking for in a watch. I own the yellow GA-2110SU-9AER which I think is stunning (though ywllpw can be hard to fit with outfits…), but for someone that is not into smart watches, this is the perfect watch, since there are basically all functions you need, except maybe tracking heart beat
Highly recommend one of these. I always wanted to try a Gshock and I bought one and love it. these are perfect because you get that look in a cleaner slicker but still manly profile
You forgot to mention one of the biggest differences between the ga-2100 and the ga-b2100; while both are battery powered, the newer b2100 model comes with the tough solar feature so you'll never have to replace the battery like you would with the original 2100.
You would eventually have to replace the battery.
@marcel yeah, like in a few decades maybe. By then you'd probably have moved on from the watch anyways
I bought the full metal BM-2100 to wear since I need a watch that is tough for my work, but also dressy. Originally it was supposed to be my work watch, but it does not leave my wrist, and looks great even in casual or dress clothes. It is durable, but its size and polished finish make it stand out in a subtle way and it compliments any outfit.
I have a G Shock which I love. My 2100 came in the mail today. I am not very technical so it took me a while to get the right time set but I really like it and it makes my old G Shock appear dated. Teddy does a great job in explaining the watch
Thanks for explaining the differences between the models. I was always confused or too lazy to look them up.
My wife bought me the GMB2100D for Christmas and I love it. Surprisingly comfortable and it looks great. Like Teddy say the lume is not great and with the charcoal model it can be difficult to see in low light conditions without hitting the light.
I got a GA-B2100C-9A. I'm pretty happy with it except I didn't like how the yellow bezel & strap look in person. It looked nicer in pictures. So I bought a used GA-2100-1A bezel & strap to replace my current yellow ones. It's compatible & I'm very happy with how it turned out.
I own 2 GA-2100's and I love them. I have the GA2100-1AJF (Black w/ Off-White dial markers) and the
GA2110ET-8A (Light Gray w/ Dark Gray bezel). These are my daily watches and I cannot get enough of them. The ability to own both for under $200 and complement pretty much any outfit and situation in life makes these, for me, the best value proposition in the watch world today. They look fantastic deliver a durable quality piece that belongs in every collection.
I have 2 of the GA-2110's (the Core ones)- the grey one with positive display, and the blue one with negative display. What I don't like about the new solar and bluetooth ones is that they have got rid of the day display on the left hand dial. I would ideally like solar and bluetooth with positive display and day dial. They don't seem to do that currently sadly.
Thanks for the heads up
I can't recommend highly enough the GM2100. I bought a metal bracelet for it and its gorgeous.
I own 3 GA2100's. I plan to add a GAB2100 eventually. I use Jay's and Kay's strap adapters on 2 of my GA2100's for more comfortable strap choices.
These are definitely more appealing because of the size and less aggressive style but still being super tough and a great tool
I've had the same G-Shock for the last... 15 years? Something like that. Bought it right after I got out of the Navy. A GW-530A. Been an absolute beast of a watch. Even sat in a closet for the last 5 years or so until I pulled it out recently, thinking I was gonna need to replace the battery after all that time. And while it was dead, a couple days propped up in the front window and it's fully charged again lol. Can't kill these damn things!
All that is to say that, while I love this little watch, it's been time for an update for a while. So I just bought one of the GA2100s in the Neobrite colorway, from your site. Figured you do good work here, should show a little support, and your typical watches are well outside my price range! Looking forward to the new watch coming in in the next few days!
Any of these watches would be a great addition to any collection.
I personally have the gm-2100 with the metallic frame in the midnight fog colour. Absolutely love this watch and affordable too.
Also, definitely a good watch to bring out during vacation if you don't feel like getting mugged😁👍
I bought the g-shock following your enthusiastic coverage and I ended up returning it. I just hated the small arrows (relative to to dial) and the resin band (which increased perspiration). I am enjoying my pro-treak, which I feel is a better watch
I own the GA-B2100, tough solar means I don't have to worry about a thing for at least a decade so in my view it's worth the extra 50-60 bucks. Being a fan of mechanical watches I don't own any other G-shock watches. Before purchasing it I thought it might be too bulky but Teddy was spot on about the dimensions, the watch wears much smaller than you'd think. After a few months of wearing it I have to say its very durable and gets the job done. The only negative thing I have to say is that I find the light underwhelming and not enough in certain dark environments.
I always take 2 watches (something dressy and something for doing activities) when I go on vacation and my Casio oak is always one of them. So durable and stylish and I normally do some sort of swimming on vacations and my casiooak is a champ in water.
I personally like the original black square more, I've had one for 10+ years, it has seen a lot and it still works great! I've only changed the battery once. I don't like models that are more bulky, which is not the case, so this 2100 isn't bad at all, but to me the square is the best g-shock.
I love my bluewhite GA-2100. I always prefer to wear it whenever I go outdoors. It just goes with everything 🤩
I acquired the GA2100BWP-2A 'Blue Porcelain' version with Chinese dragons engraved on the back case. C$130 at HBC. Looks great, keeps almost perfect time. The blue swirly coloured strap feels high quality. Amazing value.
I was thinking of buying one of these today and this video dropped... Sometimes it's like Teddy is watching over my watch collection.
same thing for me!
My ideal future CasiOak would feature all of the functionality of my GA-B2100-9aer, but with top-notch lume on the hands and the hour indices, covered by a sapphire crystal. I don't need a metal body or strap, but I do appreciate a face and hands with higher contrast and readability in the dark without using the LED. Also, as much as I enjoy the bright yellow of my model, I would like a high-contrast face in black or gray.
Love my slate Casioak watch, my go to weekend warrior. Great video and informative. Will buy one of the lesser priced Casioaks form my son’s first watch to start his collection.
My preference is the entry level base model. The only thing that I don't love about it is the resin strap, which is not the most comfortable strap, but for the price its a pretty small issue. I use this as my go-to for going to the gym, doing yard work, etc. and it works great. My two favorite Casio's are this one and the DW5600BB-1
Jay's and Kay's have aluminum strap adapters for the GA2100. I own 3 GA2100's and I use Jay's and Kay's adapters for more comfortable strap choices. They offer 20 or 22mm choices.
I love the GA-B2100 with an SKXMOD kit. Became one of my favorite daily wearers.
Bought a GAB at Christmas. Loving it. Initially wanted the GMB but that's like four times the price😁
I went with the bluetooth versions for the solar charging. To me that was the sales pitch more than BT. Really good watches. Wear mine at the gym/sports to spare my mechanicals the stress.
Same!
Teddy, I want to say thank you for sharing your ideas on your TH-cam channel and through your articles. My knowledge of watches has increased so much since I started following you. On suggestion I have is that I would like to see you do some interviews with the owners of some American microbrand companies, like Detroit Watch Company, Weiss Watch Company, and Vortic Watches like you did with RGM Watches. It seems the last 10 years have been the beginnings of an American watch manufacturing renaissance movement. These brands are definitely underrated, and it would be interesting to see you use your platform to draw attention to these companies and this movement. I can imagine in another 5-10 years, there will be a American movement manufacturer and truly 100% made in America watches.
Love analog/digital GShock watches. Once you figure out how to align the hands with the digital face it’s golden.
Love this watch, especially the bluetooth alarm setting functions with solar. Just wish there were more positive display options.
yes! love my original ga-2100. Had it on a modded royal oak case and then returned it to stock. Was considering a solar/quartz GAB-2100 , still debating (i love having a date complication).
I dont love the price jump for the all-steel version.
I have the original black and picked up the steel dial version for $30 more, and let me tell u, if u find a deal on it, grab it immediately
@@davidf3974 See the steel dial is worth it for me, but the jump for the steel full case isn't enough to warrant it!
I found a non-Royal Oak style metal case that looks better aftermarket as well, may pick it up
I like the black solar powered one. the one with the red hand... I just wish they made a bigger version.. Id love the watch if it was a little larger and thicker, to feel more like a g shock.. and also it would help with visibility because they can make that tiny digital display larger.
I have a green GA-B2100 (solar powered) and I love it, it wears so comfortably, offers a bunch of "complications" and looks great. I also have a "royal oak" looking metal case and bracelet for it, which looks great but does not wear as comfortable.
I got the green aswell, i found the LCD display was pretty much ineligible most of the time. A positive display would've served better i think. Also lighter hour indices and/or better lume on the hands would have been nice.
Its a shame they only make the 4 colours in BR/Tough solar atm. Some of the basic models have much nicer displays.
I love this g shock but my favourite one ever is the ga-100 I have one and I have been treasuring it and maintaining it for a bit. It’s a beautiful watch and I truly reccomend it for experienced watch enthusiasts and people getting into the field. Nice video teddy
The camera work on this channel is stunning
He uses a lot of clips from the net
I have the Blue Bluetooth Solar. It runs great as you mentioned, like a 41mm. Excellent buy, outstanding quality watch with lots of features!! The extra $50 from the base model is money well spent. Great video!
I actually prefer my entry level "jellyfish" version. Unlike the more expensive ones, it easily shows you the day of the week at 9 o'clock. That's more useful for me than the mode indicator seen on the more expensive models. It's my go-to watch whenever I'm doing anything active or outdoorsy.
Fair point
Really like the jellyfish one, but the inevitable yellowing has kept me away
Agreed. I really want a solar Casioak with a positive display that shows the day of the week in dial form like the less expensive non-solar models. I don’t need the dial that tells me the mode
It’s important to constantly check the day of the week.
@@carsaregood911 that was a worry when I got it, but 8 months in, with regular use, and it's still clear as day. If it does start to yellow too much in the future, it will be a perfect candidate for a mod project.
Thank you for all the great content about watches. I am a 'watch wearer' rather than a 'watch collector'. Once I settled on the CasiOak, to get the analog/digital hybrid, there seemed to be three distinct decisions to be made:
* Resin or metal case
* Third dial: day-of-week or mode/Bluetooth
* Positive or negative LCD
It turns out there are very few options with the metal case, day-of-week dial, and positive LCD. The only one I found is in the Midnight Fog collection. At least it made my final decision easy!
Now I will stop watching Teddy's videos before I decide I *need* a dress watch! 🤣
What does the Bluetooth do?
@@m7f790 I missed this earlier.
Bluetooth allows automatic syncing of the time, as well as being able to do all the settings from the phone.
@@UnconventionalReasoningthanks for the heads up was looking for a similar set of requirements and for now there is just this one
@@UnconventionalReasoninganother which may not have been available when you were looking is the GM-2100C-5ADR. Strap isn't resin.
@@johndoe-vc1we Yes, I got that one after I had made my original comment. Later this month, I'm going to go to a local watch repair shop and put the movement into the GM2100BB-1A case and strap.
But my favorite, and what I'm wearing right now, is the full-metal GMB2100BD-1A. The legibility is a bit challenging, but I like having to be intentional when looking at the time.
Just got my G shock G steel and the instructions to set it were really confusing to me. Not sure why I couldn’t get it to set the time, but thank you for helping as now I have a watch that actually tells the correct time rather than being a novelty.
I only had a g shock as a kid and as an adult I’ve only ever bought mechanical watches. I now have 3 of the ga2100 watches and bought one for my dad as well. They’re awesome for the price
I got the "ladies" version last week to fit my male wrist as it fits my wrist best.
Got the black and rose gold for best viewing of the hands.
Overall, a great G-Shock option.
The downsides, buttons are a bit awkward to use and only lume on the hands was a disappointment
It’s funny I was just debating if I should buy this or not. This helps a lot.
Just ordered my rose gold casioak from your store. I'm so excited to see it in person!!!!
I have two - the grey and the red and am looking at a black with green highlights.
These (as Teddy stated) got me back into watches and I now also own a GA-110Y Jason and looking at a few others.
Thank you as always for the great content TB
I have those two as well, they're both FANTASTIC (though the digital display on the red is slightly less legible than the grey). The next one on my list is the green women's offering because of the smaller case size.
I have the 2100 black resin with white markers and best G-Shock I’ve owned for my wrist with the lower profile. I’m on the coast in the southeast US and routinely use mine for anything with a damage risk including surf fishing. I clean it with a brush periodically and after exposure to the saltwater. Zero issues and highly recommended as a durable, yet nice looking beater.
Love my small but growing g shock collection. Huge fan of the Bluetooth in my MTG. I thought it may just be a novelty but to have an analogue watch that adjusts the time within a few minutes of getting off a plane is brilliant. I only own one casioak which I love as my holiday and weekend watch but find if I'm travelling to a different time zone I don't take it so I don't have to change the time.
But the 2100 has world time🤷♂️
@@kdubllu hrmmm maybe I just haven't worked it out then. It took me enough just to set it the first time ahaha. Still I love that the Bluetooth models just work faultlessly.
Just having a play and it doesn't seem to have my main two cities I travel between (Hobart and Brisbane)
I really like the week day complication, it would be great if Casio issued a version of GM-2100 with metal bracelet
I always wanted a G Shock, but they always seemed so big.(thick).
I bought a ‘Casioak’.
Fantastic watch, not just for everyday use, but it’s a great ‘outdoor’ watch.
All the best.👍🏾🇬🇧
Hey Teddy, I have 3 2100's in my collection. GM2100-1A, GA2100SKE-7A and a GAB2100BNR1A. I love them. Smaller profile made them easier to wear on my smaller wrist although my MudMaster still ranks up there with my favorite G-Shock's. Keep up the good work, I appreciate that you cover affordable watch along with the not so affordable one.
Wow. You have all the variants.
I have had a DW5600 in army green, solar powered and it has stood the test of time and never had the battery wear out.
Can you please make a review of the Casio Pro Trek Mammut edition? It seems the prices have jumped to 800-1000 on secondary market in some places. It looks like such a great timepiece as well one to buy and hold. Please do a review on it.
I love model of the Casio G-Shock. I own 10 different colors of the same model ( Casio 2100 ). The metal one , really got my attention.
Its a Great watch, with a third party Mod like elaborated in many other videos the casioak really pops of. I bought myself this mod from a site called skxmod or so and let me tell you quality is crazy. I heard some people also buy these mods at Aliexpress. But like I said these mods are nothing to be laughed at
Just picked one up.
My very first watch, I just love it to my core.
Thanks for a great review Teddy!
I have several 'Casioaks', so I obviously love them, my latest is a GA-B2100 on which I've added/used an 'aftermarket/third party' metal bezel/shroud kit to get the full AP 'Off Shore' effect. I don't think that you can get a better do it all everyday watch for the money?!
I need to hurry up & get the AP mod for my gab2100 lol
Just bought a GA-2100CA-8ACR and am taking it on a snorkeling trip this weekend. Very comfortable to wear but my half century old eyes struggle a bit with the small digital display in dim lighting (not a big deal). All the other G Models with a round case were too wide and thick for my preference/slim wrists but the shop owner knew I'd like this one and she was right. Thanks to my watching your reviews and learning about the watch before shopping I was open to trying it. Now I have something I like to wear other than just something inexpensive to go in the water with. Much appreciated and hope to get my next watch through your site.
I had one for the longest time and recently gave it away. No particular reason, it's a cool watch but my tastes have changed. Thanks for the review.
I’m in the market for one of these right now. I love the $99 versions simplicity on the face and lack of Bluetooth logo… however the Bluetooth model upgrades it to solar which I also love. Teddy you gotta get more stock of these on your site. I’d love to buy it through you with all the help you’ve given me but the available colors right now ain’t it for me lol thanks for everything you do
I got the Stainless steel & copper/bronze ones ❤️
Important to know also: if you get a lighter colored model the bezel will discolor. I got a face colored 2100, which looks great, but it has marks all over it. I wish I would've gotten the yellow version with a black bezel
Sad to see you didn’t highlight the GMAS2100 or bring in those versions to show off. I’m a female and bought the smaller nude CasiOak version and love how it wears on my small wrist. Ladies this watch is great for us too!
I own the Red Casioak, its quite a statment and you have to be careful what you pair it with but it wears very well.
A168W & GA 2100 green...it's been almost an year and half I've bought them at the same time with the first stipend I've recieved in my intership and they'll be with me till the end of my life and may be next gen too 😉
Been watching your videos for a while now and was inspired to start a collection. Started with the amzwatch, its specs for price and clean looks, now am looking for a dress watch to add.
My blacked out gab2100-1a1 is my go to watch. It’s insane knowing that you’re always on dot time & that the solar battery is going to last years upon years
I think the GA-B2100 is the perfect entry if you want to start with this series. Im a big fan of gshock. And having Bluetooth connection and tough solar feature in it just makes sense. Its a plus if gshock would soon develop and add multiband 6 to the 2100 series. But if you have a specific color of watch that you have been looking for, the basic GA-2100 is for you. It have a ton of colorways.
But for me, I'm aiming for GM-B2100BD the black full metal casioak. it has everything that I love with gshock. And it's a stunner.
Im looking forward for a MRG version of the casioak, though im not sure if I can afford one. Hehe!
P.S.
I think you missed the midsize casioak, better for women. And it's nice to wear pair designs as couples' watch
May I ask a question: what does the Bluetooth do? Is it like the multiband 6 feature on other G-Shocks that updates the time automatically (and feedback other info to your phone)?
Edit: I guess my question was answered in the video lol
Love the solar, hate the Bluetooth. It's a pain to pair, and takes way longer to update the time when I travel through my phone than I could do if that "feature" wasnt there. All the effort to poor and open the app for essentially nothing. It's a literal waste of time (something a watch is meant to help prevent if possible).
Bluetooth makes it easier to set the time. But you can use it just fine without bluetooth. But setting time on these are a brain fart.
The GA2100 was my first ever G Shock and I opted for the clear or “Jellyfish”, I believe it’s called, color way. Very cool and unique but the strap has gained a pretty evident yellow tint. So I personally would not recommend that specific color way. I’m probably going to go for the solid red, black, or grey!
I enjoy your channel very much and your format is very well presented and easy to watch.
Re: Casio, I was never a fan but I recently picked up a G-Shock “steel” limited edition model and I find it very comfortable to wear and I can use it in multiple situations. Surprisingly versatile and I’m enjoying my purchase
Love your channel with so many stellar watches! For me the AMZWATCH’ watch is my favorite. Keep the videos coming. Thanks.
I have a smaller 6.5” wrist and opted for the 40mm gms2100. I like it!
I got the grey one because it's a lovely grey and positive display.
Great vid Teddy!! Useful as a clarification between the different Casioak models :)
Own an All Black GA 2100 - Despite being pitch black, it gives me a lot of compliments being unique. After all, I wear it for compliments and aesthetics, not for time.
I was just shopping on Amazon for a CasiOak and this video popped across my feed. It's meant to be.
Just grabbed one yesterday. It's my first G-shock. Actually, it's my 2nd non smart watch watch. The other being a Lego watch. I got the virtual world colour way Casioak. Love the subtle pops of purple and pink. Legibility is an issue with the dark dial and negative digital display. It was take some getting used to, not to just tilt my wrist and have the time light up. But so far I like the look and feel. I could see gifting one too as it's not expensive, is fashionable, trendy, and sort of timeless being a casio g-shock.
Got one for a bit and returned it because it was too hard to read at a glance. This is with the grey version. I don't know how people read stealth versions. The day is really hard to read. Also, I don't understand why digital window has different fonts. If someone knows the answer, I'd appreciate it. I'm really happy for people who get lots of joy out of it. My hats off to them.
Few Questions About Solar:
1. When fully charged, how long will the battery last?
2. How long does it take to charge from dead to full?
3. How long will the solar battery last before it needs to be replaced? Can it be replaced? If so, how much does that cost?
Thanks for the great video. 👍
I own a GA2110 I love my casioak. I'm a construction worker and I put my head through the wringer, if your looking for a stylish yet tough watch your on the right track. Give it a try. They are not that pricey.
I have a black and a red, really want one of the bluetooth ones but can't justify the expense lol. Great watches, they don't wear big
Got the blue one. Great everyday, accurate and no worry watch. I wear it on travel, less prone to theft.
The mini casioak version (gma-s2100) is perfect for smaller wrists and has some great colours.
They are labeled as female though
Yes, I’d say check them out also! I preferred the size, and liked the black with rose gold color way.
I bought an inexpensive ana/digi Casio AQ-S810W Solar 10bar for almost nothing, to see if I liked the combination. I smooth sanded off the white painted text and black Sharpied the recessed lettering, so I now have an all black case. I'm now searching, (but can't find a reason) to get the Casioak Solar at $150. One quirk is that the second hand moves/lurches 3 times a minute, not like a perpetual minute hand.
