Thank you! I didn’t notice the different yellows in pics or videos. I’v saved all your tutorials for each g in my collection. It is nice to not rely on the internet with a standalone device. I prefer the size and weight of the gw9300 over this but the sun function does trump the moon.
Kupio sam taj sat samo evropsku verziju (obična narukvica). Iskreno svideo mi se kako izgleda, nisam previše znao o njemu, a kada sam našao jedan od tvojih klipova tek sam se onda oduševio. Živim u Srbiji u Valjevu i mislim da sam još udaljeniji od Nemačke antene (u odnosu na tebe), ono što kod mene radi što se signala tiče je da kada god sat stoji okrenut na stranu ne uhvati signal, a kada god stoji vodoravno on uhvati signal, tako je bilo preko 30,40 puta. Vrhunski su ti klipovi i vrlo poučni. Sve najbolje.
A grate watch. The only Casio non connected watch with more was the GWN Q1000 Gulfmaster with the depth sensor and moon and tide. Obviously an ani-digi. Which you also did a great tutorial on. Thank you as always!
That's the most loaded non connected G-Shock. Also, his Gulfmaster tutorial was even longer than the Rangeman's don't know why he won't acknowledge it.
I didn't notice the color differences until you pointed it out (maybe more obvious in person), but now I can't unsee it. I don't know if it would trouble me, but it is there. Smart looking watch.
Hi again. Bought the new GW-9500-3 Mudman to compare it to my GW-9400-3 (both green). The new 9500 is indeed more readable than the old 9400 despite the duplex LCD! I have an issue however and would like to know if you or someone else could help me. Being in a place without radio connection I mostly rely on manually correcting the time. Now, over the years I have observed something I haven't read about anywhere: The speed of an individual watch seems to vary! E.g. the 9400 I have has been fast about 2 secs per month after the last atomic correction by radio 6 months ago, now I manually set it, and it will be around 1 sec slow per month. That is not the only G-Shock I have observed behaving like this, temperature seems not the cause. Now my question is, what could cause it? Is it the length of pressing the button that resets the seconds? Wasn't able to really confirm that either so far. Or is it just randomly picking a speed after a setting? So far, I can't think of anything. Do you or anyone else have a clue about what's going on? It would also help me decide which of the two watches I will keep (the 9500 going even a little slower still after several attempts). Thank you for your videos and all the best!
The "speed" you are reffering to is accuracy which for quartz watches is within a second a day, so it is normal and random from watch to watch. You cannot "correct" it as it depends on many variables including the quartz crystal itself. Some watches have a "trimmer" screw inside the module that allows you to indeed "slow it down" or "make it faster" but I doubt current GShocks have it
@@WatchGeek After some more thinking I would like to come back though to my experiences. What your answer does not explain is the CONSISTENCY of the 2 sec fast per month accuracy vs. the now lagging behind after setting it for the first time after those 6 months. My conclusion is no other than while setting the watch, I must have changed the accuracy somehow. Have you noticed that in any way as well, too? I have several years of experimenting with other GW-9400 copies that behaved similarly to back it up. Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you again.
You could easily keep the watch if you adjusted your logo to two tones of yellow 😉 Anyway I just got the watch myself and because it is so good I lost interest to buy any other gshock I had on my "watch" list before.
Have mine inbound from JayPan currently, wonder how long until someone offers the ideal golden yellow side parts to make this thing ideal 😮 💛 👀 come on you 3d printer mad men 😅😊
@@traviswalker8933 yes sir! 9400YJ took a chance cause of money back guarantee and it looks brand new. Not a mark on it just a little dirty. I have 4 Rangeman and haven't ever paid over $150 any of them except this one.
Have a Samsung Watch 5 Pro and my work just banned smartwatches for some odd reason, so i am considering this one. This seems to be the most advanced watch that isn't "smart", so it should pass.
Unless you want to save money, I'd recommend the GW-9500. It's essentially the same module (i.e. same set of features), but it's lighter and the build quality is better.
I bought this exact model 2 weeks ago as my first gshock and few days after i found out about broken lug issue. Could you make a seperate video about protecting lugs from breaking? Ive seen people on forums saying that using some adapters significantly helps but im not sure.
@@WatchGeek Hvala! Stalno dobijam komplimente, baš su pogodili kombinaciju boja stvarno neverovatan sat...

Lol, weren't you the same guy who complained about the GW-9500 having poor legibility? The new Mudman is much better built than the the Rangeman, but the display is ruined by it having a dual LCD arrangement. If someone could put the Rangeman display in the body of the new Mudman, it would be the best of both worlds.
@@MrBacchus18 that’s great man, this was my first g shock and I’ve already bought another one 🤣. The rangeman isn’t even that big and I have a small wrist. What looks big on me is the GX-56BB I bought
"dare you to watch both of them all the way" ill be going back to the second part for a second time as i bought the rangeman a few days ago and its arriving tomorrow. love the vid, cant wait for the watch
It's all made in Thailand, even if you were to visit Japan and buy it from shops in Japan. This version with the yellow-black color combination strap is a JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) version, meaning it's only sold in Japan not in any other countries. Unlike the past, JDM no longer means that it must also be made in Japan. Nowadays it simply means made to be sold in Japan domestic market only.
What "bugs" me and hence prevented me for buying this watch model, is that I find those digits way to tilted like on the G-9100 Gulfman, which I sold for the same reason. I simply don' t like the way those numbers look like and they look awkward. The closest thing to "perfection" is my GD 100, and if it had had ABC functions, it could have been for me the best Casio G-Shock ever made, but somehow Casio keeps avoiding to make the watch I want. And as soon as they start replacing their entire line with that new "special" bio resin stuff, I'm done with Casio!
I have the mil green with negative display version and I love it. Had to order it from North America because it wasnt available in the EU. It's not my most used watch but I'll never sell this one.
Are the alarms loud enough. As you well know, Casio are not renowned for the loudness of their alarms. Love your videos. Have helped me lots over the years. The tutorials are great!
MY GG-B100 has a step counter which I absolutely love. I also just purchased a GST-B100 in Luxury military steel ( all analog ). I don't suppose the 9400 has a step counter?
Hey man, love the videos, especially your tutorials on G shock functions! Do you know if this color of rangeman is a limited run? Or is it a permanent addition to their lineup (like black-red/positive, black/negative and green/negative)?
Don't know, but I think it is Limited production run, not Limited Edition, meaning it doesn't have a total number but I think they'll discontinue it down the line. If you like it, get it while it is still available
1:10 that title would go to the GWN-Q1000 Gulfmaster. 3:08 on a resin watch, the weakest link is the case itself. Even if this one had spring bars, the case would've been gouged making the cae unusable. This gripe is kind of funny as the contemporary riseman and mudman had the same type of mechanism to lock the strap in place.
Funny enough this issue doesn't affect the GX-56 at all, despite that being much cheaper. It's less about the resin, and more about the lug design and how it connects to the case.
I’ve got to wonder whether the G-shock designers (who will definitely watch your channel) looked at your logo & thought, that’s a great colour combo… it absolutely pops, let’s make a Rangeman in those colours. Either way, it’s almost perfect… love it ❤👊💥
Great show. I have the old red one but am seriously considering an upgrade to this one. One of my favourite features is the instant stopwatch with one press of the bottom right button. The barometer alarm is great too if you're camping in tornado country! (Only minor drawback -- the altimeter is toast if the weather is changing since it's based on air pressure; a minor gripe on a stellar watch). 👍
Got the normal Y version wanted the Japanese one but it’s £240 plus shipping and import tax probably be over £300 I picked mine up for £150 on sale half price in the UK
For some reason I always have an unpleasant experience with the rangeman. I had three gw9400 and they all have clicking buttons on 10 o clock. Maybe JDM version has a better quality control.🥲

I need to go try a rangeman on in store. On paper its way too big, but i’m still curious because i love this colorway😂
Very nice and yes it matches the channel ✌🏼😎👍🏼
Due to the yellow accents and the all yellow color on the back of the strap, I nicknamed mine "Yellowjacket".
