Better than a G-SHOCK GD-B500, and 1/4th the Price

The Casio LWS2200H-1AV is great. Ignore this video and just go buy one.

I came here for a watch review and got a fart too. This video did not disappoint.

I like the way you take the whole video without cutting out your reactions like when your camera goes out of focus, or when you started cursing while trying to get the bands out of the box. Very authentic! Subbed right away

[@watch_a_watch]

Haha, thanks! I just figured that the last thing KZbin needs is another watch guy reading from a script.

[@staywith_gauravv]

I like this watch very much. After watching your video I have made up my mind to buy this watch. But it is very expensive for me. But a day will come when I will buy this watch.❤

[@watch_a_watch]

@@staywith_gauravv Don’t worry, man! Keep saving and if you still want it in a few months from now, just get it then. Trust me, these watches aren’t going anywhere. Thanks for watching!

Definitely a Graveyard Shift Watch 😂

[@watch_a_watch]

I used to work the graveyard shift for many years before getting a job at a cemetery, and I never saw the irony in that until just now.

[@dtshifter]

The illuminators fit me better than a G-Shock. The illuminator is around $20 and you would have to seriously try to harm one.

[@watch_a_watch]

Heck yeah. Right now you can get an Illuminator on Amazon for $16.88, which means they’re almost guaranteed to be even cheaper on eBay. And how would you even break it in the course of daily activities? I honestly can’t think of a single realistic scenario.

[@susrev88]

but their strap won't last for long (2-3 years with daily wear) and if you want to replace it, you either have to order OEM one or put one on that doesn't fit. these watches have proprietary lug sizes. in contrast, g-shocks will last for several years if not for a decade.

[@dtshifter]

@@susrev88 I have a super cheap F91W knock off from the late 80's or early 90's with the original strap along with the rest of the watch doing fine. I have never had a genuine Casio watch band fail yet. Even if G-shocks were free, they are too chunky for my wrist size.

[@susrev88]

@@dtshifter that was long time ago. my f91w strap broke, together with my ae-1200 which i wear almost 24/7/365 and take it off for shower, etc. i too don't like chunky gshocks but a square is fine.

Thanks!

[@ttciii]

I know what you mean about the average g-shock band being very uncomfortable. Having said that, you should look at the dw9052. It is an incredibly comfortable g-shock band. Also, I have the GBD500 and I have to say that the band on it is very comfortable, too. I like the 200m water resistance and the shock resistance that is the hallmark of the g-shocks. It also connects by bluetooth to your phone, so you can always update the time on it very easily. Yes, it is more expensive than this watch. I'm not trying to defend that. But I don't think you should paint all g-shocks with the broad stroke of being uncomfortable to wear. There actually are comfortable g-shocks.

[@VictoriaStobbie]

Good video, good points. Except, it’s not better than a G-Shock, because it’s not made with the same carbon core materials.

[@Visiblyblue]

[@watch_a_watch]

Glad to hear that! Let me know what you think once it arrives and you get a chance to wear it.

[@Ekstraordynaryjny]

This is an interesting take, but here's the thing: You tried four different versions of the same watch. Casio has literally hundreds of models in their G-Shock line-up. Thousands if you count all the colour and strap variants. They come on rubber, both soft and hard, silicone, leather, nylon, steel, titanium and plastic bracelets, natos both single and double pass, stretchy nylon, bund leather, rally leather and probably more I don't remember. In fact, the only type of strap I've never seen on a G-Shock is a mesh bracelet. And they come in every possible shape and size (well, not every size, there are no really small G-Shocks, unless you wanna try the Baby-G - there are some cool ones there, if you don't mind the silly name). What I'm trying to say is that regardless of what size or shape your wrist is, you will find a G-Shock that will fit it like a custom tailored glove.

[@jlg395]

But he’s saying that he already found a Casio that does all of that and more (not to mention looks just as good if not better) for a fraction of the cost. G-Shocks are for wannabe tough guys.

[@Ekstraordynaryjny]

@@jlg395 I'm just commenting on the "G-Shocks are uncomfortable" statement. He tried one out of hundreds. It's not a sample big enough for such a sweeping generalisation.

[@jofubar2763]

Good video, but I disagree on milimetars... For my wrist 47mm is max.. 46mm seiko fits good, 47mm hamilton (meh..ok i guess), 48mm too big goes over my wrist. And in my country is 50 euros. Prices in my country are horrible, Murph is 1000euros.. And average month salary is 800 euros. As for Gshock..Yes (very uncomfortable to wear)

[@raziqilanie]

the watch face are great..hope they make man versions of this watch

[@RampartPh]

The step tracker alone is a good sell

[@bigvee401]

[@watch_a_watch]

You have no idea.

[@PaKePo]

I also like this watch, it looks very cool, but it's tiny and some other youtuber compared step-counting watches and this one wasn't very accurate. I don't really care about step counting, I'm pretty happy with my W-800h and my Skmei W-96h, but if I'm getting a new watch, it needs to have CDT and not switch between 12 and 24hr format with just oressing a button. Also a 2nd time is useless to me. If this one wasn't so small, it'd be very good. I like watches with big digits, and this one has cooler looking digits than most digital watches, so that's a plus.

[@dankinsler1930]

Unisex watch!

[@watch_a_watch]

Lol, you said “sex”.

[@Giorgionsen]

The accuracy sucks balls dude, you should try the gbx100, no more than 4 seconds a month.

[@watch_a_watch]

Nothing wrong with having your balls sucked. That said, the GBX100 is $130 more than this watch and pretty ungainly in its proportions. The only reason guys would pay for that is so it says “G-SHOCK”. I can always just write that on mine with a magic marker.

[@leohidayat6811]

Try DW9052

[@watch_a_watch]

Oh, man…I don’t know. I just looked it up, and there’s a heck of a lot going on with that watch. Looks bomb-proof, though!

[@rnunezb]

All the RATIONAL world use metric system, only the primitives use bio-system, aka, British system (or brutish system?), do you need a draw for explanation?

I need all of the rnunezb tutelage that I can get. I’d be lost without you.
