Negative displays are hard to read, even worse when so small. I like the GA-800-1A better (without eye) and positive display. However I got the cheap version of that just the other day: HDC-700-1A, which is actually very nice for $30.
You are partially right, the negative display on most casio watches sucks, BUT , on this model they did a great job improving visibility, It is one of the best negative displays casio produced.
@@olegsuprun7590 Yeah? That's good to hear. So you think this one is worth getting as my first, G-Shock with my Christmas money? Huge watch fan, especially Casio, but never owned a G-Shock, nor an Ana-digi. And this one actually has a proper backlight unlike the annoyingly miniscule LED lights on most.
I’ve just received my GA-835 today and must say I’m quite impressed. Not too sure about the buckle. I think a gold buckle to match the keeper would of been nice. But that’s only a minor niggle. Overall I think it’s a lovely watch.
I've had this watch for several months and still like it. However the matt finish is not robust and soon shows signs of wear. The nasty plastic buckle is fixed in place, it doesn't use a removable springbar so to replace it means breaking it. I did that and fitted a metal buckle from a 6900MS. The watch is very similar in size to a 6900 and also works well on the combi bracelet. The poor lume is easily made up for by the excellent backlight. Despite its flaws, I still like it.
Thanks for that info, I did have fears about the resin not looking like that after some wear. I wish casio made a permanent finish that looks like this one.
Dear Watch Geek, could you consider a review and tutorial on the Timex Ironman Classic 100 watch (same as worn by Mark Wahlburg), which is $50. Has 100 laps-splits, but multiple alarms, and 9 Interval Timers. Your comparison to Casio would be interesting, and I think the video would be well searched by Timex Ironman fans. Thank you for considering it.
The problem is the height of the watch. I mean the lug to lug distance is very big in comparison with the case diameter of the watch. I think ga 2000 fits much better on small wrists
Dude you should make a video on decoding Casio model names. Knowing functions at a glance is super useful.
I have this watch and it is my daily driver. Keep the great work !

Look at 1:39 see the moving white thing...Probably the smallest insect?
Wow you have a good eyes
Give this model solar tough and you have another winner.👍✌️
Purchased this watch yesterday. Feel happy wearing it.
Congrats 😊👍
The mite on the bezel gives the review a real nature feel😅

Congrats on a great new watch
Everything is beauty in this watch (love mate finish) except the black digital part.
What's wrong with the black digital part?
I have a 35th anniversary GA 135DD limited edition with 4 diamonds and gold buckle/back plate! Waaaaay coolet then this one ;-)
I just bought the GBA-800 last week😂I've should've waited for this one 😂😂😂haha
You like this one better than the GBA800?

It’s this watch. Popular watch, but no great tuts or reviews. Thank you. th-cam.com/video/XZjVUwNxuZs/w-d-xo.html
It's hard to get a timex where I live as they were never present here but if I manage to snag one I'll do it
Watch Geek Oh, I see. I didn’t know that about Timex being hard to get there. Thanks for keeping a lookout for one.
NICE TELL
I'm interested in buying the watch but I don't like the gold keeper. What is the width of the band for a black replacement keeper?
U still interested?
Watch Geek, lindo esse relógio, eu acho que não existe no BRASIL!
Love the band
Wow that looks niceee :o
Any chance of a review of the Gulfmaster GN-1000? There isn’t a good review of it on TH-cam
GWN-Q1000 I will be doing as I got one, but I never got the chance to play with the GN1000, if I ever do, I will
What's the watch strap length for a replacement buckle? Was hoping to get a replacement buckle for this one....
Which one is better? GBA 800 or GA800?
GBA has more functions and has Bluetooth conectivity, the GA is just an ordinary Analog digital G-Shock
Watch Geek thanks for reply bro
GBA-800-1AER OR GA-835A-1AER? CAN'T DECIDE HELP ME.
GBA 800

How can I open the buckle? Seems it's not spring bar operated.
does the dual time let you display 1 time zone on the digital display and another time zone on the anolog hands at the same time ?
Yes, that's the point of it
Saweet!
1:43 little white critter under the K moving! Lol
Haha I saw it too
Dust mite.
Review the GW 9300 Mudman!
They are impossible to find here where I live
How do you change the time?
Is it still available in 2020
nice
Prevelik kao i 99% tih g shockova kako ih mogu nositi ljudi ja kad sam probao 6900 nisam mogao da verujem koliko je debeo inace dobar klip
Onda je za tebe savršen GW-M5610
@@WatchGeek imam 5600 e 1v isto sam mislio da izmem solarnu verziju ali ga nema u srbiji
Solarna atomska verzija, GWM-5610 ti je još manji od 5600.
Kraći je i tanji tako da još bolje izgleda na manjoj ruci.
@@WatchGeek e da te pitam jel victorinox jos pravi satove davno sam imao neki model analogni digitalni jedino me podsecaa na aq 180w
Još uvijek prave, i ovo bi bio moj izbor:
th-cam.com/video/u-Ue6pe9cVE/w-d-xo.html
Nekako mi ne ide sekundara uz G-Shock, osim Aviator i Mudmuster :D
Make a video how to turn on Auto light
OR tell me how to on Auto light
In a G-Shock GA-710
Ade yang jual bnb Tali jam ni tak
