If the Casio just cover the carbon bezel with flexible resin instead of stiff ones like they did on the Carbon strap...

[@valethal]

Actually I start doubting how good is carbon core guard? I'm going to buy gst-b200, but there is nobody making video about drop/impact test for these carbon core g shock.

[@TrippleZ3D]

About the carbon.Carbon is lightweight makeing it usefull in many aplications where weight is crutual like in aeronautic,nautic,aerospace,car ...and plenty of other industries and aplications like in Formula1.They(developers of F1 carbon body) did a great presentatio on their carbon body construction also saying that during impact the carbon will almost be destroyed in pieces but thats why carbon is great,takeing the force of impact and spreading it all over its fibers.Thats why carbon is mostly made stiff.Yes,this is a watch and probably the carbon bezel will take some impact force and spread it through its fibers so maybe will do the resin substitute also but from my opinion the carbon one looks way cooler😉.

[@ocdetails]

The carbon fiber bezel is primarily for looks anyway. It's not really protecting much where being brittle when twisted is going to make any difference at all. It is still going to do just fine at protecting the crystal, and that is the main reason it is even there. The use of carbon fiber in this watch makes it much more lightweight and able to withstand more pressure and force, but anything when twisted is going to break unless it is meant to flex. Bezels generally aren't meant to.

[@jcoopdo]

The red thing feels like anodized alum to me

[@harrie205]

Carbon fiber is stiff an brittle It’s not a tough material

[@WatchGeek]

Great video as usual! The real screws on the bezel surprised me positively, but the bezel being hard and easy to break disappointed me 🤪

[@ocdetails]

Typical of carbon fiber though. It is rigid, but it will crack. It's mostly epoxy, after all.

[@wonderbreadmodelsandhistor1566]

It's not a wear item...the only way to expose it to that stress is to disassemble it. Thats like complaining about the flexibility of tooth enamel. Sure it could crack...if you took it off the tooth. But why would you? Also Watch Geek - Thank you for your awesome contribution to our hobby over the years. Everyone is thinking it...just figured i should say it.

[@ronaldfaber9443]

In general carbon fiber is very strong in just one designated direction. Think when the bezel is solidly in place it can take quite a blow but when you take it off en start bending it can snap really easy because power is applied in the "wrong" direction.

[@nickfish4385]

Very detailed walk through of a g shock. You are a legend!

[@williamthomas5780]

Thank you. Seeing the build quality is helpful in making a decision to pull the trigger.

[@AaronInCal]

Such a great video!! I have this exact watch and this was fascinating to see how it is all put together. Thanks for doing this video! You explained everything so well.

[@1974lionsfan]

great video,, very impressive.. I just got mine today and I'm dreading replacing the battery so thanks a bunch for showing me how

[@schumy1975]

nice, glad that you have put it back together at the end successfully!

[@caerphoto]

I’m thinking of getting one of these and this video has only encouraged me - it’s good to see that it seems very well built. Changing the battery might be a bit more of a hassle than I’d like, but even then it seems like only a 5 minute job. Really well-made video 👍

[@doctorrobert60]

Great video as usual, love the commentary in how well you explain things about the G Shock watches. Your channel and jerryrigeverything channel are my favorites due to the quality of the video you guys produce.

[@lpark8]

💥💥💥🤠great video! Thank you for taking the time to do this in such detail

[@tomfrantz]

1000 points for bravery. GREAT video!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Being shipped to Oregon right now. You have very skilled hands...

[@coverupify]

This video was very helpful for me when I opened the watch and fixed the alignment of the seconds hand with the markers. Thank you!

[@shaiknj]

This was a really cool demonstration. I wont do it if I had that watch but its good to know whats inside.

[@werwolf_mk9734]

Thank you so much for making this video. I left my watch at the watchmaker for a battery change and afterwards, I realized that the clock was not waterproof anymore, with it fogging up while being submerged in water. The watchmaker had not put the o-ring back correctly. I disassembled the watch with your video as a guide and let the watch dry. Extremely helpful video.

[@Thoughtfulbuildsllc]

Wow! That happened to me but it ruined all digital and my light. They are buying me a new one

[@gaius_marius]

Very impressive video. I love seeing these in depth deconstruction/reconstruction videos.

[@zwesolowski]

Very informative thank you for sharing: Just one thing that I would like to share with you; when I remove watch hands, I put a sheet of clingfilm over the hands and dial face before using any tools, as this prevents or at least reduces the chance of any unwanted soiling or depressions being left behind on the cosmetic finish - it also stops the hands from flying off in the process. Thanks again.

[@bigbigdog]

Wow, I can't believe you actually took it completely apart! I just bought this watch and I am waiting for it to be delivered. I will definitely save your video so I can refer back to it when I need to replace the battery. Thanks!

[@leonpatrick5606]

Quick update please, how is your Mudmaster going? And have you had any issues with the battery power consumption.

[@andresmiguel2573]

Leon Patrick I wouldn’t worry, the battery will last longer than 2 years.

[@bigbigdog]

@@leonpatrick5606 nope no problem with the battery at all. I just changed the battery on my GW-500A and it was a piece of cake. I am sure I can change the battery in the GG-B100 when I need to.

[@leonpatrick5606]

@@bigbigdog Awesome mate thank you for the reply. I've had my GG B100 for a couple of days now and love it.

[@Jona_Guerra]

I'm impressed, great review!

[@americanexpress888]

great video! I was going to get this watch but decided to wait just to see if Casio will release a solar version soon. I really do like the watch since it just got smaller compare to other mudmasters.

[@burpengaryjosh5614]

Another great video mate 👍

[@bigjase6481]

Thanks for sharing, nice to see a watch being stripped down, and the love the mudmaster series. 👍

Wonderful video! Thank you for your time! I never will open a G-Shock (I am share that I would destroy it) I am happy to know, waht is inside 🙂

[@revanthusq]

I really appreciate your efforts

[@mikesey1]

Love the Carbon Black Out watch you're wearing. Just bought one but finding it difficult to set up. Bright light needed!

[@Pimpi1980g]

Great one as always but I think we all want to know a bit more about that badass camera. Where did you get it man? And one short video about it?

[@alexyu7654]

Great video, good job.

[@jumpkeys]

Thank you for this

[@GMann_007]

Thanks for this. Very helpful. Thinking twice of keeping this piece after seeing the fragility of the carbon bezel. GWG 1000 MM is solid. Net gen needs Bluetooth......

[@carlmaynewheeler]

Great video man, I have the earlier one which doesn’t have red colouring anywhere i think i prefer that.. still a superb watch though even if i cannot get the location working...

[@paullowe2906]

Great video 👍

[@bojned]

7:32 Carbon fibers are strong, but they are not strong in every direction (like steel or aluminum). You've applied force on carbon fibers in a way they are not meant to be stressed. This piece sits snugly on the watch and it would probably absorb any blow coming from the top or the side. But bend it just a little bit and it cracks. That is why your bezel failed. Same would apply on a carbon bicycle - it can take a lot of abusing, but just step on a tube and it will shatter.

[@KevAlberta]

Spot on

[@vipulrathod510]

What a beautiful video . I watched the whole thing even though I don't own a mud master

[@mcub75]

Great video. Thank you very much.

[@vartikcsaba]

The dealer also makes a leakage test on the watch after the battery replacement (to test water resistance). Usually, that is what cannont be done at home.

[@johntells1460]

Great video.

[@simonh2011]

Wow! I just got the GWG-1000 MM and found this really interesting. Glad I dont have that Carbon bezel!

The Mudmaster gwg 1000 is the best in this line of Casio. Nice video.

still bought it though, and one of my favorites in my current rotation.

[@Yonner666]

The GG-B-100 is a tank of a watch, just ordered one the other day.

[@RJSoftware2000]

Nice vid. Subscribed. Been watchmaker for years (repair only) mostly mechanical, chronographs sometimes, some quartz. Curious how you handled the hands, did you point all hands at 12 during install because non independent, or did it not matter? Some quartz chrongraphs where strange in syncing up to me. I agree with you on the rubber finger cots, losing finger sensation causes me to fumble sometimes. Besides I'm older, my fingertips are dry as bones. I have trouble even at checkout lines from touch screens sometimes dont register. It's a little embarrassing. I work hunched over a box, that helps me to minimize parts loss. I sometimes use movement holders, sometimes not. Some guys, better than me, take whole thing apart using movement holder. To me thats more difficult. I have to hold at different angles and distances of view, so I take chances with dropping over struggling with always holding in movement holder.. You might like plastic twezers. I notice some of the more critical parts like the led display could get easily damaged by sharp metal tweezers, but I dont know, you know your comfortable way, just suggestion. One thing sometimes works for me is on the analog portion of movement you can soak in Zippo lighter fluid. What happens sometimes is factory lubrication dries up or congealed. The Zippo (naptha) liquidates the old oil allowing gears to turn. This is an old mech watch trick. As to the broken bezel with the carbon fiber layer I would have used a fine oil dropper to weep small drops of super glue into the cracks while you had the bezel off. Enjoyed this vid and subscribed. Arjay.

[@chris13299]

All your videos are very good. I have only one question. Can I put the band of gg b100 to gwr b1000? Thank you!!!

[@johnshimko8796]

Thank you. I really enjoyed your video.I am Wondering if we could find out the part number of the watch band... I would like a black one!!

[@BFmeister]

Thanks for the tutorial. What is the phillips screwdriver size needed to remove those backplate screws? Thanks.

[@norikofi7797]

Great video very through watch

[@bobnoblesjr.465]

I have this watch and I love it. I just wish they had offered it with the tough solar feature. Also, this isn't magnetic resistant. If a magnet is held close to the crystal, you can stop the second hand. In the compass mode, where the second hand always points North, a magnet will affect it, too.

[@rockeyj399]

im more interested about your watch tools than the watch it self... 😅.. any way thanks learn a lot about this watch... 👍

[@lucio788]

great work

[@JoseAntonio-qu7mt]

Buen trabajo !!!

[@oldies81]

Hi Thanks for the great video, one thing I really would love to see is the step counter test video, I have the same model as shown in the video for some reason it's very inaccurate when it comes to the Step counter, I normally remove the watch when I go to sleep and leave on my dresser table, when I wake up I check the step counter to be surprised by 150 steps recorded already while the watch was just sitting stationary for the whole night. Is this a defect or just the step counter is just crappy, Casio should have traded the step counter with solar power instead.

[@simeonaleksiev8690]

Or someone or something wore your watch?

Great video. How much does it approximately cost to send to Casio and have the battery replaced? Also do you have a link to the specific watch tools you are using? Thanks.

[@gshockhighfashion]

For Casio Japan, Battery swap around 1000yen 200m pressure test around 3000yen MUST DO all of that plus labour fees/tax. Thats why I prefer to do it myself. I just re-edit links for all the tools I use in the description box. Have a look. :)

[@mustang450ify]

good job and nice

[@kevinmosto]

Love the macro shots... The watch is really awesome with great caseback design (Best among mudmasters), useful triple sensors plus step counter, cool mud resist concept. Which is why it's such a shame that it is not solar-powered. The sensors, the led lights, these are all power consuming!!

[@gshockhighfashion]

It could lasts about a year or so which still better than ant bluetooth equipped watch on the market. Besides, the battery is super cheap.

[@kevinmosto]

@@gshockhighfashion Yes, you have some very valid points there. But opening the case up every year or so also means that you have to properly re-do water-proofing, regreasing o-rings, etc. I live in a small city and good watchmakers are not readily available. I just don't trust the shopping mall "watchmaker" can do a great job in re-waterproofing the watch every time! :-(

Another great entertaining video! Disappointed (and surprised) with that carbon though (to much resin not enough fibre maybe 🤔). That machine you use for magnetic testing is awesome and great to watch the difference between watches! Great macro shots as usual and thanks for sharing 👍🍻

[@DevilFrog]

Thank you for all of your efforts and attention to details. All of these little details that Casio puts into these, yet they do not add lume to the index; in my concern, that is the only reason I don't pull the trigger on one of these. CNC cutting lume high quality vinyl/tape (Glow-On has excellent lume tape) using a Cricket seems like a simple at home DIY, but sizing the index markers (or sourcing the size on the internet) is the hard part; is measuring the markers w/a micrometer something you are willing to do during one of your disassemblies? Is the index ring even [easily] removable from the crystal? What are your thoughts on adding such lume?

[@raksh9]

If Casio used a high intensity lume like Seiko, their watches would be so much better. I can't understand why they use such weak lume, and hardly on any hour markers.

[@brendanr1525]

First of all I highly appreciate your disassembling videos. Big thanks for that!! I would like to swap the hands between two models.

Are there any positioning notches (I can't see any) or do I have to set the hands after re-assembling individually by the watches functions. Thanks in advance for a short hint bro!!

[@gshockhighfashion]

There are no notch or indication at all. I just manually align it with the 12 index. You'll beed good eye sight though. I'd seen some G-Shock promotional video where they showcase how a G-Shock was assembled, the staff just align the hands manually as well, except under a magnifying lens.

Luv your review brother but you need to change your topic heading by deleting "I broke it"..... This is so misleading and implies that GGB100 is an interior product whereas it's one of the best models ever to be released! It's like the call on the Rangeman 9400 where someone claimed the lugs were breaking due to poor design! Unfortunately many took this on face value! As you started, the bezel was not designed to be twisted and in fact this applies to all bezels!!
