    I got my kid a Casio gmas2000. It’s pretty cool. It has analog and digital displays. You set the time via the digital lcd display and then it automatically moves the analog hands to the correct time. Same with the day. It’s got an analog day pointer, but you set it via the digital display. It’s got an alarm, stop watch, and GMT features as well. And a light. Pretty neat watch that will hopefully give him an appreciation for horology.

    Very nice piece, I've been looking at the new all metal variants. You can never go wrong with a Casio.

      @@spaceteapot I was able to spend time w/ a friend's Casio - it was a Europe only release - actually had a metal case. It is a Casio A1000D-73. I think they are tough to find, if I remember correctly there wasn't much when I was grabbing more info on it. - I discussed the watch in my 3 Casio price points video.

      @@KillingTimeWithNorman ahh thanks for that, the A1000 looks killer as well. Its available in north america (at least in Canada) but its almost 4x the price;
      For a second I got my hopes up for a metal case version of the A700.

    Great video, Norman. I have a lot of Casio watches on my list and looks like this one will be a birthday present from my son to me. I have to let him know. 😂

      Finding the mesh bracelet variant may be tough, but I think the standard bracelet ones are readily available... I believe.

    I recently sold mine & kept the A1000 white dial, quite similar but I preferred the metal case on the A1000, both great watches though. The mesh from the A700 will fit on the A1000 but it suits the shinier A700 better. I've just realised I've got a new tank watch coming in that is on an 18mm mesh, it might fit on the A1000 & I've already bought green suede for the tank, hmmmm. Fun times ahead.

    I, too, have seen Ben's channel and purchased one . I have also seen there are fakes out there! There are a number on Ebay, usually sold without the box,
    Amazing that they put so much effort into faking these Casios?

    Where'd you purchase this one from? Its a made in Thailand piece. I've been looking for one of these or made in Japan one but every piece I find are made in China pieces. I even bought one and it was a made in China piece and I sent it back as the strap had issues. They're not fake as Casio mass produces their watches from China aswell with high QC. But i'd rather have one of these or the japanese made ones. Almost all the other youtube reviews of this watch are also made in China pieces if you observe closely the back of the watch.

      Oh man, I'll have to scour my emails. I'll let you know. I had to hunt for it for sure.
      I actually didn't even notice Made in Thailand! Thanks for the info on that!
      Hopefully I can find where I got mine to help you out.
      Good luck hunting!

      I actually found it on the Zumiez website hehe. Sadly I don't see it there anymore. It was hard to find w/ the milanese, that's partly why I pulled the trigger when I did.

    thoughts about the 3 year battery life? Cuz I personally wish that it was longer especially with it being a digital watch and all... maybe it's thin body has something to do with it

    • @KillingTimeWithNorman

      The range of adjustment on the mesh bracelet is huge, so you would be fine, for sure. I'm not familiar with the amount of resizing you can do on the other bracelets these ship on though :/
