Just picked one up for times I just cannot wear my Rolex. Rolex and G Shock all you need lol.

beowulf566 · 16 June 2011, 11:50 AM

I jut picked up another one tonight

I have 7 of them now. they are cool, fun watches esp. for the price

ohfivepro · 17 June 2011, 09:14 PM

This is the one I've got. I've seen it called the Stormtrooper online but to me it looks like the Millenium Falcon, which can only be a good thing IMO

ColinB · 18 June 2011, 09:12 AM

I have 8 G-Shocks so far. Here is my latest one.

Too much? I'm 6'2" and in fair shape, I don't think anyone's going to call it a ladies watch. (to my face anyway.

)

That is a nice G. My wife doesn't really like digital watches but she wears this one because of the colour! It has a good clear display and great functions.

These are the watches many Navy Seals really wear, not the Luminox

+1 ; there is no doubt about that.

Not for nothing, these watches, whichever iteration you prefer, cannot be beat. They are inexpensive, tough, reliable, lightweight, feature packed and, perhaps as a sum of the foregoing, FUN.

I use my old G2300 for everything that is likely to harm a watch; I strap it to my backpack when I travel. It barely shows any of the abuse it's seen. There is no doubt my "W" 16710 stil looks as good as it does because of the beatings and abuses my G-Shocks have taken over the years. I know, I know the rolex watches are made to take and all that but I just prefer to wear a G-Shock when dings and dents are all but assured.

I have a Black Titanium Triple Sensor that I can wear anywear and not worry about - don't even know i have it on most of the time, despite its size. bought my son who just turned 13 a G-Shock hunting watch for his birthday - had to get one for myself as well, just had to.

G-Shocks, one of the very few products in its price range (of any type) that provides the intended performance and anticipated value.

spuds · 14 August 2011, 06:27 AM

Guys can you help me out please?

My son's comandeered my gym watch so he/I need another G-Shock that's.....

45mm or bigger.

'Wave ceptor?'/5 or 6 band? "Auto-accurate-time set thing"?!

Solar-powered.

Round rather than square.

Preferably (although not essentially) with a two-pin buckle/rubber strap.
(rather than a 'single-pin buckle' or metal bracelet)

& probably 'original style' rather than the newer 'premium ones' with hands.

Any ideas which fits the bill best please?

Thanks in advance guys........

ibrando · 14 August 2011, 07:44 AM

If you wan to trend the weather with a baro, I'd choose the Riseman solar/atomic. Has the double buckle and the strap is very comphy.

Thanks Brandon......

I'm looking for a 6900 online now.

My Dad gave me his G-shock when we went away to Alton towers, Its quickly replaced my slightly battle damaged Lorus as my favorite watch. They are extremely durable and being a student, I love its versatility.

Hey I'm looking for a G-shock and yours looks great. What model is that?

Actually found it after some searching! Thanks for posting the picture. (GW2500B-1A)

DD GT3 RD · 26 September 2011, 09:37 AM

Got this a few weeks ago. My first G-Shock. Believe its called the military version. Its dark green and yellow.

GW2500 is great. i love mine.

- big metal buttons
- it can show 3 different timezone at once
- the lume is not too bad, and it has a LED for night time viewing
- comfortable on the wrist
- not a lot of G-Shock has a grey metal bezel
- looks awesome with the orange-ish LCD

and then the rest of the G-shock stuff (atomic solar, tough as nail with analog hands, current time shown all the times, world time, alarms x 5, STW, CDT, ... VDC, LSD, VTECH, double high power lazer, direct satellite links, invisble shield, and a toaster ... :p)

Etudes · 27 September 2011, 06:09 AM

I found it at overstock.com and ordered it yesterday. I'm kind of excited to try a G-shock. My last Casio was a databank in the early 90's. I wore out that watch. Always thought it was ahead of it's time - no pun intended.

They replaced it with a microwave a couple of years ago

I'm glad you found the model and were able to order one. I think you'll be quite pleased

Ghills23 · 29 September 2011, 07:23 AM

Probably going to pick one up this weekend. As a student, and a future Physical Education teacher these watches seem to be the most practical. They also seem to be undoubtedly better then Nike Sport watches.

stockae92 · 29 September 2011, 02:41 PM

Not quite a G-Shock, but WR200M nonetheless, with lots of feature, big and tough :-)
