I have the black one and I am ordering the gray. I love the G-Shock. The reason the G-Shock is loved is because it is not trying to be something it isn’t. It is obviously inspired by the Royal Oak. But, it is not being sold as an alternative to that watch. It is being sold as a compliment to that watch. No one has any delusions of grandeur that it is actually a Royal Oak or that is replacing the Royal Oak. Us watch lovers can buy the G-Shock as a daily wear watch and by choosing this model we are showing our appreciation for the real Royal Oak. It’s almost like a secret coded watch lovers language. We look at someone wearing one of the G-Shocks and think, this person is a watch lover.
I already own the all black variant and have waited for the SKE to come back in stock on the UK site and it literally just did. The site was crashing like hell but i managed to bag one. They go so quick!
Got mine last week. There's still stock while I'm typing this. It wears very well. My only downside that I feel the strap could be a bit longer on my 7 inch wrist. It'll fit a 7 and a half inch wrist and still leave one hole free.
@@TheWristocrat Cool. What about discoloration? Does the strap turned yellow due to sunlight/dust exposure? Been eyeing this one for sometime now but I'm really worried about the discoloration in the long run.
@@ashkevron23 I believe it will eventually since it is plastic, but I think it will be a while before that happens and you bet I'll be enjoying it until then and if it gets so bad that I cant wear it due to the bracelet, I'll make sure to find a strap for it!
Indeed, just got mine in the mail a few days ago and absolutely love it as well. Was thinking I wanted the blacked out black one, nope, this one is waaaay nicer.
@@metelelee7536 water got in but that wasn’t a big deal. All clear plastic things get yellow with time and sun exposure. I’ve had mine over a year and it hasn’t gone yellow yet
@@metelelee7536 The band has a bit moreso than the case. It certainly isn't the clear shiny original 'color'. On you wrist you don't really notice it and only having seen it originally would I say I would notice it.
@@shoebsumra792 Yes, it gets yellow, but when you wear it, it doesn't make a difference cause the transparent body will still show your skin color. I think the yellow tint makes it even more beautiful and gives it a character
When Ap cost thousands and this is just a couple of hundred made totally differently and not has a total different specs too so this is just and inspiration to Ap .
@@yellowwducky yeah. I picked it up in January hassle free and found out it was cut after that. I wanted the grey one anyway and was a day 1 purchase for me. The box is unusual too. Some kind of grey graffiti stuff. No idea why it was axed though
"I haven't been this excited to get a new watch in a LONG time! " "when I first go this watch, too be honest, I was not super super excited about it" ???
@@stefanmilinkovic1926 Na kraju je kupljen preko Amazon.de. Zasada skoro 3 tj. Korištenja ne vidim neku razliku ali je kvaliteta izvedbe i ugoda nošenja poprilično dobra. Kad ga imam na ruci ugl. Se odmah primjeti i često me ljudi pitaju o kojem satu se radi. 😀
How long do these take to go yellow, thats my question. If its a year thats quite short but if its 2 or 3 years thats okay since it costs not too much to replace the straps and case
Don't get the clear strap version ... so wish i hadn't , water runs under the casing and remains there seemingly forever and is very visible :( . Also the strap yellows very quickly , choose a different colour . never wear mine
I really think it wasn't the intention to copy the royal oak. Just because of it having an octangle bezel. Besides that it doesn't look anything like it.
I think it'll take a good while to yellow. If mine does I'll look to buy after market parts. Change from clear to another colour or go all silver metal. But I tell you this it wears very well and it's quite light on the wrist. It's quite a bit thinner too. Good for wearing under cuffs.
Please advise, that little hand that points to the day, should it make a full circle or only toggle when you are adjusting it ? I think Mine is broken because it makes a full circle backwards & forwards. Thanks
No the watch is a masterpiece lol read the booklet. The hands move out the way while adjusting and then they wind back to the time after . And it has a setting that moves hands away so you can set time and alarms
Probably. I'm going to wear mine at night during the summer. And all of the time when it's not summer. I feel that summertime UV will toast the transparent band.
Great timing bud . I also just purchased a Casio Oak yesterday, even though my preference is more towards high horology. The guys at IFL watches doing a cool colab with The Dial Artist. And they have hand painted some of these GA2100-1A1ER.
I have this watch but the display light only lights up the small LCD display at the lower right but not good on the dial. I also have the transparent one with the blue dial and it lights up all over. Has anyone else had this problem with the light?
Hey Alijah, thanks for the comment! I got mine from the G-Shock website, and they are currently sold out. But if you sign up for their email/test service, they will send you an email/text when they become available again!
Hey, I live in Canada and grabbed one from Austria, with shipping it was under $160CAD. Got it from a snowboard shop called blue tomato (its a chain of stores).
I like the watch a lot, I want to get one, but you don't think that the bracelet will became like yellow with the sun? Because all the clear plastic turns like yellow
There is a chance that it could turn yellow for sure, just the nature of the resin. But you can be sure you're going to enjoy the crap out of it until that day comes

This watch seems right up my alley. Thanks for putting it on my radar. Great review
Killer looking version for sure. This is the one to get. Already told my AD to get me on the list once on arrives.
Nice watch! I'm watching this video in April now and it's widely available in the U.S. on Amazon and Ebay.....

@@ashkevron23 It might start to yellow after 15-20 years. You can just replace the strap and or case anyway.
Great watch. Love it, even as much as my luxury watches. I have a couple.
Have fun setting it. It’s a royal pain😬.
Never had a G-Shock but might have to give this one a try. Great review.
You buy one. You get hooked for life 😅🤣🙏 and try to get every variation out there. Esp the square ones ❤️
Just found one at retail price! Great review. Thanks
This guy is such a hype man. I wonder if I can hire him for a wedding groomsman.
Love the energy! You rock!
I got mine at my local macys yesterday first time buying a g shock in close to a decade but this one caught my eye and I had to have it
I picked one up a few days ago at my local G Shock store. Absolutely love it

Hello my friend did your watch hold up 1 year later, like does water get in or it turned yellow?
@@yellowwducky ?

I managed to snag one, didn’t realize they were so limited. I was never into GShock Drops but I saw this and figured I’d grab one
With me 300usd
They never were limited. They were widely available back then and now. Yeah they'll sell out quickly, but they would be back in stock within a week.
Great video but I recommend always mentioning your wrist size when showing off the wrist shots.
Grey one is awesome too. Just got mine.
th-cam.com/video/ltW4RmbH_mE/w-d-xo.html g-shock..
Just got this clear one for $100 thanks to my homie… love this watch
Looks great, but when i saw camouflage one in real it was insane, the best from all imo i hope i can get it soon, cheers man!
Just picked up that watch yesterday. It’s awesome. With this one I think I have every version of the 2100 and I think this might be my favorite.
When Ap cost thousands and this is just a couple of hundred made totally differently and not has a total different specs too so this is just and inspiration to Ap .
I have the grey one, IMHO it's the best looking and readable from all of the GA 2100 family.
I gather it has been discontinued so now it is a collectible. Congrats

Clear one turns yellow pretty quick.
Awesome version! 👌🔥 love all 3 of mine no favorite as of yet probably the metal MOD but thats not original so 🤔😁
Ha I think that does disqualify it from the running unfortunately, but I bet it looks awesome!
Just bought mine yesterday... Wasn't so difficult to buy it in Croatia. Great watch👍👍

@@RC-lo4gw yES 7a is a white one
Great looking but passed on this version because of the yellowing that will inevitably happen.
I love seeing these coming out into the wild. Can't wait to get mine. 👍 👍 Thanks for sharing. I've subscribed. 👍 👍
Thanks for the sub and comment! You'll love it, it's such a cool watch!
Nasty G-Shock!
Very unique look - great review!

Yeah I’d like to know this too.
@@mistikei I actually heard that gshock added a new type of coating to these which repels yellow stains as time goes on. It might be false though
It will eventually becomes yellow, but make sure it's not exposed to the sun too much otherwise it will speeds up the yellowing process.
which one looks good black one or this transparent one im kinda confuse
I just bought one for 70 flat brand new!
Don't get the clear strap version ... so wish i hadn't , water runs under the casing and remains there seemingly forever and is very visible :( . Also the strap yellows very quickly , choose a different colour . never wear mine
Awesome video honestly, very pleasant to watch
Thanks a lot!

Didn't know it was hard to get. Just got one.
Does the plastic get yellow with time?
Yup.
You cant get? I literally bought that watch online. returned it though and got the GAB2100MF-1a
great pickup man! however I wonder if the strap will turn yellow after long cuz it’s basically plastic 🤔
Hey, on Rolex everyone loves a little Patina, so nothing wrong with a little color here as well, right?!? :)
I think it'll take a good while to yellow. If mine does I'll look to buy after market parts. Change from clear to another colour or go all silver metal. But I tell you this it wears very well and it's quite light on the wrist. It's quite a bit thinner too. Good for wearing under cuffs.
Mine lasted about 2 months before it started turning yellow. At 3 months it was disgusting looking.
@@jeffdur1330 That sucks for you. Iv had mine for 2 years and it has no sign of yellowing.
@Linda Shelby wow lucky, howd you manage that?
Does it go yellow over time? Like all of those phone transparent cases? I guess the answer is no, but worth asking.
That’s a good question
But its turn yellow right? After few months?
why those transparent is not sold with tough solar version?????
how has this watch held up? any yellowing ?
What do you think of the G-Shock DW6900WS-2
The “Sea Foam, Ocean wave” limited one. I’d like to here your thoughts on that.
is it turning yellow
Can you make un update if it yellowed??
Got 1 and it's bad a**..💯
Please advise, that little hand that points to the day, should it make a full circle or only toggle when you are adjusting it ? I think Mine is broken because it makes a full circle backwards & forwards. Thanks

G Shock is the Swag and also the luxury of common masses. Believe me, this G-Shock will last beyond Rolex and Patek. 😬😅👍🙏
will these yellow at all over time ? :(
i just picked up 2 pretty cool watch.
Congrats! What do you think about the watch?
@@TheWristocrat i like it, very light on the wrist not like the steel tanks i usually wear.
I was wondering if the skeleton band goes yellow after a while because of the sun?
Dot
Probably. I'm going to wear mine at night during the summer. And all of the time when it's not summer. I feel that summertime UV will toast the transparent band.
White color is glorious and one of those
This variant is interesting, but still the full blackout is the best one.
I saw one of these the other day!
Great timing bud . I also just purchased a Casio Oak yesterday, even though my preference is more towards high horology. The guys at IFL watches doing a cool colab with The Dial Artist. And they have hand painted some of these GA2100-1A1ER.
I saw that! The colab looks sick, but after looking at the price, I think I decided I'm going to sit this one out ha
I just order my yesterday:)
It looks cooler than the Rolex
Found it! It's available in Japan.
Beautiful
I have this watch but the display light only lights up the small LCD display at the lower right but not good on the dial. I also have the transparent one with the blue dial and it lights up all over. Has anyone else had this problem with the light?
Great video!
Went to the Casio page, ordered the skeleton Casioak, got an email that is on the way ...
I have to do the same
How did you do that I can’t find it
German Casio online shop
Where can I buy it?
I have the triple black, the earth color grey and the skeleton
200th like!!
do the transparent straps yellow over time like a phone case?
Nah it doesnt. Just like the other gshock straps they can wash clean just with normal soap and look brand new
Easy to get here in Germany. Available everywhere I look 😅
true
Also in Denmark
Love this watch
Thank you buddy.
Hey Rohan. I enjoy the content my friend. I was wondering if it’s not to much, can you point in the direction to get that specific g-shock?
Thank you

It wears REALLY well in my opinion!
I like the Casio more than your Rolex lol.
Hahah hey it's all personal choice!
Is it fully transparent or semi transparent?

There’s only one gshock I want and can’t get. That rainbow steel one. Fucking 3 grand right now from resellers
Bellissimo!
I bought two. anyone with $300usd wanting one?
Today its not so raer
I gots one
🏆⌚️
Eventually the straps will turn yellow🙁😬
Agreed, unfortunately, one of the downsides to owning this watch. But other than, I am absolutely in love with it
Did you return it yet? Lol
does it get yellow overtime?
I've heard it does but in the time I have had it, it has not so far!
@@TheWristocrat Oh thanks for the feedback dude.
