I grew up wearing Casio. From waking up using the alarm function, having a shower, catching a pouring rain or a blazing sun, bicycling, going to the gym, and to the beach, running, arriving in time to work, driving, seeing my girlfriend all the way to checking the time late at night using the illuminator backlight and so on. It's like a little friend that I have on my wrist. Casio watches are made to last, are incredibly well built for the price, not to mention that they keep a good time.
I have had a G Shock for 12 years. Bloody brilliant- never let water in, never needed a new battery, survived all kinds of activities including skiing, house renovations bike crashes etc. Just amazing- defo going to get one of these now.
The only watch type I haven't broken.... Have been using them for the last 20 plus years. Perhaps more can't quite remember... Just bought this one, arrives tomorrow looking forward to the next 20 years.... Only reason buying a new one , my local Watch Hospital knackered my current one whilst changing the battery. Good job this new one has a 7 year battery life
Can confirm i wear my ga-900 at the farm where i use chainsaw, bang it around while reaching into engines, gotten all types of engine fluids on it, and have worn it while running 10km of pipe, underwater, and in temperatures of 45°c to -50°c
Im G-Shock collector.. last week I bought this model GA 900 HC.. green .. nice looking and the price is only RM 450 in Malaysia.. like ur video.. greetings from Malaysia 🇲🇾
What a great video this is awesome this is the kind of watch I like for harsh environments if this would stands up to all this and going camping and canoeing backpacking and mountain climbing this is the watch for me 👍
I just bought a blue GA-900 with non-inverted LCD, but to be honest my job isn't one-tenth as physically demanding as shown here. Beside being durable the design of the watch is just thrilling, let alone the huge battery life time. Especially if you live far from the equator pure battery power is just preferable to solar power.
I'm actually reminded of the Camel Trophy races that spanned from 1980 to 2000, where they drove those beautiful Sandglow-painted Land Rovers/Range Rovers all around the globe. I wish G-Shock would have released a special 2020 Camel Trophy anniversary memorial watch, as last year marked 40 years since its beginning!
if I have to be honest, thanks to casio UK I am the happy owner of this watch and I have to admit that it is one of the best Gshock I have had, I recommend it to anyone who appreciates high quality thank you #casio uk
.. i bought it and I got scratched after 2 hours of use.. I am a chef.. I send it back because of the warranty… I didn’t want another one even if I loved this watch.. it looks awesome
I got one of these for Christmas 2020. Very nice watch, the light is a little dim. I have the GA900-2A blue with orange accents. I have read other reviews about this watch and some say that the band is black, well mine came blue like the watch and I get quite a few comments about the watch. Would have liked to have seen this watch as a solar model instead of a battery, but hopefully the battery will last 7 years as advertised.
It's a mineral crystal, compare it to the glass found on higher-end smartphones. It has pretty much the same properties (meaning it can shatter if You're very unlucky, but it's tough nevertheless and can handle minor scratches)
When the world goes to shizzles, after a nuclear meltdown or alien invasion, only countless G-shock watches will inhabit the Earth for millennia... Those with Tough Solar still running!
I admire your videos of testing gshocks. 2 questions please: 1. Is that only one ga900 that you’ve used during the test? 2. Can you do a video of testing the durability of the rangeman gpr-b1000 and the g-squad gbd-h1000 anytime soon? Cheers.
@@UKCasio that'd add up to my decicion getting one :D by the way, is there any chance that you guys will make a vid of durability testing (torture) the Rangeman GPR-B1000 any time soon? I'm really looking forward to that vid. Cheers.
saphire is well scratch resistant so its much more harder than the mineral. as you know hard material equals brittle material. İt makes a sense if you wanna absorb a physical shock.
Que buen reloj. esas ni son pruebas no jaladas. Yo tenhobun g-7700 que lo uso para el trabjo duro como las pruebas que hicieron y sigue jalando.saludos deyessss!!!
IMAGINE having to get the cement off that lol.... I would have mounted it in a case and bought another lol... no ways you would get the cement from in between the button or strap. Best watches I have and I have a lot of them.
You're absolutely right Lee! The watch is still in the same cement block today and going strong - It is often found displayed at public G-Shock events in London - All the best!
I bought it, there are some bad sides. Poor lighting, it is impossible to see the LED display in artificial light, and the arrows are difficult to see. When you light up in the dark to see what time it is, you probably don't see where one of the arrow is.
I don't understand one thing. If casio is making a gshock that tough and durable then why this watch is coming with a plastic buckle??? That kills the whole purpose of toughness and durability. Am i right??? Plastic buckets are acceptable with non gshock casio digital watches that come cheap. But gshocks coming with plastic buckle that a no no. What if that plastic buckle breaks and your gshock or tough gshock is of no use and the whole concept of toughness gone in the wind. Casio u should pay attention to what you're saying and what actually you are doing. You are making a gshock fragile by making it with a plastic buckle. I hope you hear me casio

If the truth be told, I look on Gshock watches as my intimate friend.
You can't beat G-Shock for sheer durability!
Several thousand years in the future an archaeologist will find one of these.

whats your personal gshock, is it solar powered?
@@georgeorwell4573 hey it’s a pretty old battery powered model. GDF 100.

I finally bought one! My fourth G-Shock😊
Unreal, I thought they were tough, but not that tough. A square would suit me more, though. Great test!
@Ritez XY beautiful g shock IMO

Wonder if it would have handled the jackhammer directly on the watch?
I jusy bought 1, maybe tomorrow will be arrive, i need to wear this watch cause i work in constraction site...

Wow! That was a great review.
You presented a awesome video thank you for sharing it this is a tough watch it passed all the military specs for harsh environments 👍👍👍👍👍
Amazing G shocks
but does the hands still tell the same time as the lcd display??
What a great video this is awesome this is the kind of watch I like for harsh environments if this would stands up to all this and going camping and canoeing backpacking and mountain climbing this is the watch for me 👍
That is just one hell of a watch!

It’ll probably last more like 10 years.

The "Thumbs down" ratings are from Rolex owners who "Baby" their over-hyped watches. ... 😂🤣😆

Excelente video 😀.
I love my luxury watches. I have a ball watch, and Seiko and a citizen. But the gshock I just bought is a beast and I'm not afraid to wear it to work.
Get a Rolex
I have also a ga 900A blue colour watch it is really impressive
I recently purchased one... i came across one problem, and that is foggy. Im not able to use the watch in Ac environment.
My goodness rugged for not every one I like it 900❤️
My string Color is changed from yellow to green after using 8 months. Even I told to customer service center, they don’t cover warranty.

No

Hi there, we can confirm only the one GA-900 was tested throughout the video to see if it survived, thanks for the feedback!
@@UKCasio so I can rest assure with my next gshock. how about its 7-year-battery? is that a rumour or officially announced by Casio?
@@hoanganh89theMatt The GA-900 is confirmed to officially have a battery life of upto 7 years

I will buy it soon! 😄
Casio is first company in the world who show customer true :)
does this have auto light?
No
Exelente reloj
my Protrek PRW 6000Y and Rangeman GW9400 just too expensive to take all that beating.
so ill buy one!🤣
Can i get the watch that you tested??? I want to check that out after all that.... 😊😁
I bought this tough son of a gun watch. Should survive the zombie apocalypse easily.
Better then Rolex🗿
try soapy water please i got one and i am to scared to test out myself
Let it dry and go buy silicon lubricant then take off the case back and re lube the gasket ring.
O bicho e bruto
Isn't there an auto light?
No
I love my OCEANUS!
This is the Nokia of the watch world.
Nokia is the G shock of the basic phone world.
Physics hates G Shocks.
True true
Fantastico
One sharp rock hit to the mineral glass and is game over, also at first test it was not concrete, it was mud
saphire is well scratch resistant so its much more harder than the mineral. as you know hard material equals brittle material. İt makes a sense if you wanna absorb a physical shock.
just ordered mine hehe
A great shame because didn't have light for display...
Got mine!

Its great, in that kind of events, ill die but my g shock will be fine, I feel better 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Esquicito ... Lo tengo y a demás es precioso.
I wish, if smartphone are also made like this. So we don't have to worry about screen crack
I love you Casio
Why not test it with a hydraulic press?

Great until you come to change the time and it won't! Gutted.

Extremely impressive watch BUT and its a huge BUT, the watch is hideously enormous and looks ghastly on the wrist
Yep, squares are the way to go and I have large wrists.
useless testing cause almost never happen in daily life
Lol, imagine a guy wearing this whilst carrying out these tasks, he’d be pulp!
