- solar and atomic watch. . the digital dial on the right displays the second only. the left has day and date, etc. all that good stuff. . on the display on the left itll show if the alarm is on. if the button tones are muted, if power save is on, if daylight savings time is on, and if hourly signal is on. the digital display in the middle shows what atomic band the time updated from. the watch is really easy to operate. the layout just makes sense. the case is about as thick as a deck of cards. i have a thin small wrist and it doesnt look too big. a good manly size. for some reason i thought all casio g-shocks were made in japan. there is a model of g-shock that is not solar and atomic but looks just like this one. so that would be a good alternative. i like the red hour hand. nice touch. the watch has had a few good whacks on new years eve breaking up fights. so it is tough like they say. the face of the watch is the solar panel. 200m water resist. we are a little rusty at filming sorry. fort collins colorado is the transmitter in north america. 12/24 hr format. the date is programmed until 2099 or some long shit like that. love this watch.

even with the exposure of the sun there is no discoloration at all no cracking. ive been in alot of fights and dogpiles and wrestling in the desert at my job with it on everyday since i got it and the band has not broke. which is a super weak spot for many watches. the sun of arizona is a bonus because of the solar power. it never has dipped below full power. the band is comfy and does not let the watch move around. it never rotates around. i have small wrists too.
Very cool watch! I like it. Cool sleep function. Very cool how a lot of watches now don't require batteries, Sweet!
Hey Pavlov, thanks a lot 4 the quick reply. Great then! i will not use it often as well 'cause usually i am in day light or any other light almost the entire day. I usually get hom biking at the night after work so it can be useful. Anyhow, i'll receive it tomorrow morning...JUST CAN'T WAIT!!:-) Thanks again budy! cheers
Beautiful watch there Pav and Mrs Pav great camera work your not that rusty! i had a g-shock a few years ago( dont ak me the model, i had when i was in the Royal Marines) and it got beat on real hard and never failed till the strap snaped and i lost it, you gave a great detailed break dwn on the functions of the watch it was very informative, keep up hte great work you 2, best wishes and take care Mr Monk!! hahaha i cracked up at that digg from the Mrs.
@hackingtime88 sure. the lil circles are the digital display. the one on the far right is seconds only. the one at the bottom one shows which time station your watch updated from. here in the united states itll usually be the one in colorado for the atomic time. and the one on the left is day date military or regular digital time stopwatch timer and alarm. and shows which options are activated around the edges of it. very cool watch. very classy.
i got 1 of these last christmas. love it
@estalayo2 glad the vid helped. i love this watch. i think it looks good and is definitely tough enough. the light at the bottom lights up the whole face pretty well. the downside is that it does not light any part of the digital displays. you just cant see them. but all the markers on the analog face catch the light and are visible. another good feature is that when you leave a lit area the hands a markers glow for awhile afterwards. i find i rarely even have to use the led light.
@Disendant so find the right city. once thats done you can have the watch update it or you might have to go in and turn off the manual setting. but when the watch updates the time by itself itll synch both the digital and analog displays. they only differ if you manually set one. thats the only time. so delete or turn off the manual set time and choose the right home city. and have the watch update the time. both should now read the same. just change the city or timezone not set the time
@AliM744 it has to be complete darkness for the digital diplay to shut off but the analog keeps running like normal. id say about 20mins until it shuts down. you can shut off that function. the power save function you can turn off and the display on the left says if its on or not. pretty cool.
i love my casio g shock mtg all anodized black edition, casio makes the best watches for the price, they can kick ass and get their asses kicked and still show up for work! great watch enjoy it you will have it forever!
you are so cool pavlov and ur girl rocks i Love ur watch i got one too love the atomic feature super accurate watch! thanx for sharing very informative
@tictoctictoc07 i pretty sure its referring to daylight savings time. that area of arizona does not change its clocks at all. spring or fall. they stay the same. you can turn the function off or on. that way the watch doesnt set it 1hr ahead or behind depending on when it is.
@Disendant i never went in and set the time itself. i did have to find the correct time zone or city zone thing. i chose denver as my home city. the easiest way to see which city matches yours is check the current time and the time listed for that city. and if your city does the daylight savings time leave it on or turn it off accordingly. so when i first got the watch i set it to denver.
Great review - you two make a good tag team !! ;-)
@sobek one second... no no ticking sound. i think because it has no second hand which is usually where the ticking comes from. the seconds are displayed in the right hand digital dial at 3oclock position.
@SNAFU111999 nice. im glad to hear that the watch holds up pretty well. watches catch alot of wear being stuck on our wrists and all. i always hated trying to set the time just right. especially for the works time clocks. now i have the right time and they dont. lol. they match up now. oh cool mineral glass. not bad. but i know saphire crystal is the best. couldve made the watch cost 200 bucks if they added that. i wonder whats up with the hands. i havent noticed anything yet. thanks for info
I am going to Asia this summer and I'm gonna look for this watch! Since it is from Japan, I'm hoping to find a less expensive, Asia-exclusive model! Such as, orange-black or blue-black variants. So excited! :D
@swiss86watches thx buddy. ill let her know. this watch has been worn everyday since i got it. its withstood many scuffles at work and there is only 1 or 2 nicks on the bronze color ring around the face. its holding up superbly. and its always accurate. most people ask me what the time really is even if they have a watch on too. cuz it always matches the time clocks at work.
How to set time in analog? digital is working fine but analog time can't b set can u help plzz
@g01f3rg01f3r yes you can set the digital readout to 24 hr time. in fact i leave it on this setting as my job requires all paperwork to be in military time. the alarm is nice and loud and easy to select but i hardly use it.
I have had that same watch for 2 years and the only problems I have had is that the band will fade slightly and the mineral glass can scratch. I love the Atomic Timekeeping! Great review Pavlov. I might want to add that I don't like how the light won't light up the display and the neo bright does not last very long ( only about 4-5 hours. The glass is not plastic, it is mineral glass. the solar time keeping is great. I don't know why but sometimes my hands arn't always in sync?
@thomassmyth65 i hope i will have it forever. i love the way it looks. especially the red hour hand. i also like when a watch has the arrows at the end of the hands. thats cool too. but i will take care of this watch. get the seals redone when scheduled and shit like that. watch the band for wear etc.... the face seems to be scratch resistant something or other cuz its not showing any wear yet.
let me see. ill look up the list right now. i basically fiddled around until i found the city that coincides with the time where i live.you could take a map that has time zones on it and see which cities line up in the same zone. also you need to consider if your town changes for daylight savings. my area does not so i turned that function off. the manual says way at the back houston dallas/fort worth new orleans use 1of 3 mex ywg or chi. id start with chicago cuz its in the states. congrrat
Hi. Quick question...does this watch have a ticking sound like other analogue watches?
@elongatuspiranha the sleep function is kind of like a computers. very cool. thats one thing i hated. when you had to change the battery on your watch. they would never be as water resistant as before you changed it. i always changed the batteries myself cuz the watches werent that expensive. so now i dont have to worry about setting anything or the water resistant issue.
@Xnocturnus thank you. we got tons more vids to watch.
a nice watch, a nice couple. Thanks.
Just bought this watch on Amazon, they have many Casio's on the site. It replaces my G-Shock GW-300 that I beat to hell for 15 years. It still keeps time, but the buttons are worn out, and the light turns off and on which wears down the battery. The G-Shocks can take a pounding and I swear by these watches. Like the guy in the vid said, the light on my new watch is a little disappointing, but it's still a great looking watch for those that like the analog look.
Hey,thanks for the video!
think it is great and it helped me a lot on chosing if i wanna to take it or not! i took it now and it'll be arriving on monday (2 days) and i am so excited about it!
Fortunately you did this video. Question: how good is the LED light that shows up from the bottom? is it useful? Please let me know back. Thanks again!
@TheDishD as soon as that monk show turned up shes been calling me that. ill sit on the end of the bed and put my shoes on at least 15 times in the morning. but once i have them perfect i leave them alone for the rest of the day. no lumpy socks. nothing in the shoe. toe folded just right. the feel just right. i feel that my balance is off if my foot is not perfectly in there. thats just one thing. i forgot a bunch of shit but try to make up for it in the description. the wife loves every minute
im going to camp wear there is little phone signal does that matter and do i NEED to set it near a window
I just got my Casio Awg-101.
I set the correct time on the watch.
Digital clock is fine but the analog clock is way inaccurate.
How do I fix this?
Howdy, does this have the auto led? Thanks.
so do you mean you can only set the time by city? i mean the real standard time. pst, gmt.. etc? is there a way to set it manually. like, if i want my watch to be advanced/late 5 minutes..
@TheDishD ive had a watch or two snap at the straps. it seems to be a weak point. hopefully they keep improving. or maybe they make em just strong enough so that you have to keep buying watches. lol
how is the watch still holding up? I'm thinking of getting one I just researched the watches Bear Grylls wears in his Man vs Wild show and this is one of them!
I just bought one today I live in Dallas tx not sure what city to use any help would be great
@Lucentdawn changing the batteries are a hassle for sure. and once water gets in there good luck. some places wont even change bateries anymore. or fit the metal bands. im hoping i get over 10yrs out of the solar battery. ive always heard the gshock name but have never owned one before. i am impressed and very lucky to have one. i think analog is very classy but it has to be easy to read. whats the use of a watch if you cant tell the time with it. nothing wrong with digital. good stuff
@pizza105z even if the watch does not update its still an excellent timekeeper. it wont lose minutes. i think its like a fraction of a scond every few months. anywhere the signal is strong is fine for setting the watch. does not have to be a window. enjoy camp bud
How come my g-shock awg100 the case was different!?
is this made in Japan or Thailand?
@ZStHope no it does not have the auto light.
fantastic as always buddy. lol
hey pav, my gshock is in repair limbo, it kinds broke lol, im going to post a video, but if its going to cost me too much to fix it, im looking for a new one, hows this watch holding up after some use, and how do you like the resin band? im so used to metal band. ps new Jbug vid up just for you bro!
@PavlovSandor Don't know what is wrong with the hands. Anyway, it is easy to fix using H.SET mode.
What do you mean by, "we don't use DSLT?
yes it is
is it made in japan?
@thomassmyth65 hey buddy. i put up an update vid on this watch if you want to see video of how its looking. 6month update something like that. its holding up great. the only wear marks are around the face. that bronze metal area has a few nicks in it. very tiny nicks. enough to get the paint off. otherwise no scratches on the face which is what i worried about. its a good mineral crystal but no saphire crystal. the band is great and strong. its exposed to the blazing sun of arizona too.
I like this watch. Only setback from buying it and other G-shocks is stupid cheap 1 led illumination. It ruins the watch.
Just btw the bands are made in china but the actual watch is made in japan.
@PavlovSandor Thanks.
I wonder... Casio G-Shock vs Nokia 3310 :D
I skipped to 0:54 because I couldn't care less about the box, and I honestly thought you were wearing nail polish. Ahhh!

Jesus. He has a backseat reviewer. Shut up woman. Can a man have peace for one freaking second, anywhere on earth ?
Imagine them driving in a car :D Oh boy. He probably can drive with closed eyes and know where to go and what speed he's at.
who cares wat the tin looks like
Nearly 15 minutes of stating the obvious..
i love my casio g shock mtg all anodized black edition, casio makes the best watches for the price, they can kick ass and get their asses kicked and still show up for work! great watch enjoy it you will have it forever!
