The Dream G-Shock Steel for $280? Finally Thin & Wearable

[@nickknox.]

14+ years contracting (Iraq-Afghanistan and some in Oman) had one leather Fossil wallet,one pair of Wolverine boots and 2 G- Shock. The first one I had years prior that the strap finally broke 11 years in and the second G-Shock (solar) I bought at the PX In Oman which I still have 10 years later.

[@Abdullahtan-c5x]

What are you doing at Afghanistan land ? Military?

[@drinkwater9891]

are you like a mercenerary, you delete peoples for cash?

[@nate.or.nodate]

Didn’t even know about the existence of this model 😮 Buying right now 🙃

[@creato938]

Casio is one of those brands that no matter where you are in your watch collection journey you should have at least one, this is a great example.

[@83dude]

Nonsense comment, you can say the exact same about timex, citizen, Seiko, Casio is not unique

[@TheNunakun]

​@@83dude Casio has a range at literally every pricepoiint, from 10-300k dollars. Always reliable and classic. Casio has had more watch models out than any other brand, combined arguably. Not to mention, they're all over-built like crazy.

[@MikeBack]

Do you actually think that watch is class just because it in steel...Only a M.O.R.O.N Buy a Casio!

[@creato938]

@@MikeBack Classy of your part for sure to comment that, elitism is alive and well.

[@TheNunakun]

@@MikeBack for me, the resin and rubber straps make it classic. If you have so much hate, you do you.

[@asdfyxcv1100]

I have this one and it's amazing. The sizing is much better and more understated than the 44+mm models (and I got a 7 inch wrist)

[@anorax001]

I have the slightly larger cousin of this watch with the little turbine blade that spins around - the GST-B400BD-1A2. It is by far one of my favorite practical watches to wear and it is nice to have a G-Shock that is not oversized on my 6.5" wrist. I agree with all your points about these watches. The spring bar links, the fact I can swap out the metal bracelet with the resin strap easily, the usability of the buttons, and the Bluetooth and phone app makes setting time a breeze. The metal bracelet is a bit noisy with its pressed clasp but this is offset by the other good points of this watch.

[@lloydwellington5271]

My G-Shock collection is coming along quite well. This is on my radar as well. Thanks for the video.

[@imranbecks]

With all my Omega's, this is probably the only G-Shock watch I'd wear. That actually looks good.

[@petercharron3268]

This is the best yet, I first got its big brother Casio Oak. Now love this Smaller, dressier with Blue Tooth, but relinking with those spring bars is a nuisance with spring bars flying.

[@vijayjawali]

this has been my everyday work and casual watch since a month. I dont have to worry about breaking, battery change or setting time.

[@calmzenjp]

Hi, does it has solid links?

[@suhaibkhalid5510]

do it have auto light feature?

[@MSTZ]

Great video! I have this watch and love it… The phone finder function is what makes connectivity advantageous… The only thing i don’t like about this watch is that there’s no general solar power indicator display (it only appears when low) and that you need to check the app for it… I’d recommend this for anyone who isn’t big on a watch collection but needs something for all occasions and styles

[@albertsylvester2981]

NOT ONLY G SHOCK BUT CASIO MAKE ONE OF THE BEST WATCHES ON THE MARKET FOR YEARS NOW I LIKE THE WATCH STANE LESS STEEL JUST BEAUTIFUL AWESOME VIDEO

[@yuu0minae]

Got the one on the rubber strap, absolutely awesome watch for smaller wrists. Three negatives though: 1. the negative display, too dark and too small; 2. the edges on top of the case are somewhat sharp; 3. the lume, they should have lumed the hour markers right at the top where they meet the crystal

[@derrickheidweiller9580]

I'm not into G-Shocks but this one is a beauty

[@SKQS88]

I am a diehard G-Shock fan. They are awesome everyday watches. I hike, camp, ski, go to the gym, etc. I like having a timepiece on me at all times that I know won't break if I bang it up against something. If it get a ding or scratch here or there, it's not the end of the world. In fact, it gives it some character. I take care of my stuff of course, but things happen. I bring out nicer watches for more fancy occasions.

[@ftlaud911]

Looks like a nice model. Every collector needs a G Shock for hard use situations.

[@brynroberts5615]

I have this watch and it is great; perfect size. However I made the mistake of buying it with the resin band which is way too small unless your wrists are tiny. Buy it with the steel bracelet, otherwise it will cost more to buy it separately later. It also looks and feels much better!

[@StanberryMusse]

AMZWATCH is one of my favorite watch manufacturers they do offer beautifull dials, good workmanship & moovements.That smooth sweeping second hand is truly mesmerizing！

[@ge48421]

My “circumnavigate the world” watch is a Casio Oceanus OCW-T4000. It’s not a G-Shock, but it’s been through the wringer the last two years. It has no scratches worth mentioning, probably because of the TiC coating.

[@SecronSeven]

Lets go! Always happy to get notifications, and a g shock review? Nice!

[@66racer]

If you want a larger version, look to the B400 version of this watch. That is the one I have and love it for casual nights out, I have been thinking about this smaller b600 for use with a sleeved shirt. The polished hands show nicer than the blacked out ones on the B400 as well. Hopefully we see more variants of these G-Steel like they did with the B400. Oh and with G-Shock, the Bluetooth is optional, fully functional without it. It only uses BT when syncing so I have my BT Casio watches sync manually since 4 times a day is too much for my taste.

[@seranadesongs]

I never did like those apple or samsung watches. Glad you got a real watch 😊

[@LeBoLFC]

I got myself a silver G Shock GM-2100-1AER for about 160€ a year ago but this model made me think again. Gorgeous design, love the bracelet. And the fact that it's heavier and doesn't feel like a child's toy.

[@StanberryMusse]

I've recently began my obsession as a watch collector. And i must say- out of all the luxury brands I've been researching, for me the AMZWATCH's watches are the most intriguing.

[@b_altmann]

Finally a good size in metal - and also not an MRG. The titanium G Shock with camouflage was quite nice, but then it cost £1500. This option seems to be a good middle ground

[@bungsana]

interesting choice with the spring bar bracelet. spring bars are known to have a high failure point.

[@matsigh]

This is the exact watch I've been looking for. This will make a great travel watch.

[@matsigh]

@420Pezz-qc4nt thanks for the warning!

[@matsigh]

I just picked up this watch from a BIC camera for $260. You're definitely right about this wearing way smaller than its diameter suggests. The dial seems to be about the same as my BB36 but yeah with the bezel it feels about 38mm.

[@Paul37Ontario]

I have owned 4 Rolex and 1 Omega, a ton of other brands (I'm a collector crazy watch guy) and the God T Goat is Casio G-Shock. I have the MR-G B5000B and many 2100s. G-Shock is an honest to God great brand and a great company. Rolex plays games with it's customers (you know what I mean with wait list and making you buy models you don't like to have a sales history in hopes to get the hot model that you want) nobody like Rolex, everybody loves Casio.

[@prateekverma3188]

I ❤ AP & PP

[@EulahFellezs]

My favorite watch channel without a doubt.I’m happy to spend my money on MAMACOO watches. I’ve never been let down by their products

[@Nightmarebyilke]

I have previous gen b400 but not with steel bracelet (felt super cheap), has pretty much all same functions and looks very similar like this one. Traveling with this watch is really cool u go in the app and boom u are sync as soon as u land. Never liked bulky g shock so this is super cool one to get

[@shalashSeielstad]

got my 39mm with the white dial on the 3-link "Bader" bracelet watch on AMZWATCH 3 weeks ago and am loving it to pieces. Absolute fantastic watch that wears super comfortable on my 6.75 inch wrist. Chose the 3-link over the 5-link bracelet for the toolless quick adjustment. Way more comfortable than my Longines Hydroconquest 41 mm.

[@TheGrenadier97]

Excellent release. It's a G-Shock that went to the niche of more formal, everyday watches.

[@tofutots]

own this watch for past 6mo - like the modest size dial and thinness. agree display can be hard to read at times - and can only see 1 thing at a time (seconds or digital time or date - so choose one but can rotate). overall very pleased

[@EliborioAsiamah]

Outstanding video.I have to go with the AMZWATCH, especially with that green dial as my favorite

[@bartekgierczynski]

Cool! I just got my GST-B400 and love it!

[@JustMeTalking]

MRG-B5000B-1DR ❤😊 My watch... 😊

[@Ryan-pu9yw]

I want one that's time only and regular time set. Plain as possible with a ton of lume.

[@dimitrijekrstic7567]

You hammer those pins out from the bracelets? Did you not know there are press type tools that just slowly apply more pressure until the pin is pushed out completely?

[@jim_herd]

I’m behind the times with these watches but I’m surprised it doesn’t say that it’s radio controlled. Is it? Or does it re synchronise the time online via Bluetooth like an Apple Watch? I prefer my watches to be radio controlled.

[@tonychen3368]

It's not Multiband six so it is not radio controlled like the MRGB5000D-1A will be.

[@daggaactual]

"That's what I told my wife" love the quote mate

[@shantanusharma3502]

Where did you this get this from ? This is not available in the us.

[@mickemerson1339]

I looked as well, it’s not anywhere. Searching it on Google will let me bring it up on the Casio Gshock website m, but if I change it to the US page it immediately says “page not found”

[@ahill209]

Spring bar links - brilliant! I have several G-Shocks. The squares are pretty wearable. My Mudmaster is more of a novelty, because it's just not very practical being so large.

[@chikinjoe7968]

Check out the Casio G-Shock MTG series (JDM). They are thinner and have even more features. Similarly, Casio's Oceanus line are also very nice and feature rich.

[@ericbaseY0]

BST-G600D-1AJF can't find that exact model anymore.

[@robbiejohnson3978]

I have a Casio G Shock & a GMT Rolex. Love 'em both!

[@michaelcalabrese2960]

Where can you purchase that G Shock Casio

[@kresimirpleic]

This is the first time I'm seeing this sponsor - congrats! Great video! Unfortunately, these aren't available in my country - at least not yet. The closest model we have is the GST-B500D-1AER, which is both larger and thicker than this one. I do have a larger wrist so I might try it out.

[@BobJones-m6n]

I hope they make them in white for easy read, good viddy.

[@turdferguson7686]

ive got 3 gshocks, which is a small collection compared to many but this may be a 4th to add. 2 casioaks and a camo rangeman i love. but having a slightly more standard looking one thats still tough sounds like its worth the price.

[@junopaulodeguzman9341]

I think, you should checkout casio lineage lcw-m100tse. Titanium, Multiband6 and sapphiere.

[@loaim2791]

I got the black one with purple dial, it became the most watch I wear like almost every day, at first I thought this is too small for a g-shock though :)

[@sparkonthehorizon]

Excellent video, sir. Short and to-the-point. I think Casio really hit the sweet spot with this sizing. I also think it pivots very smoothly between a "suited-up" look vs jeans and a tee shirt. It looks smart either way. I appreciate your round-down mentality. I've used that before with my wife as well, and it just makes ya feel better about life in general... (lol). I'm definitely picking this one up but I'm torn between this full metal w/bracelet or the silicon/rubber band version you also showed. Do you know if one can swap out the bracelet on this model for the silicon/rubber band? That would make it almost perfect...Anyway, great job on the vid. New sub here

[@kkasavu3149]

When they release one with a positive display....😊

[@zaidm9182]

I've seen harsh finishing on casio hour and minute hands. Probably one of the few things they need to refine. Steel a great looking watch and unique one for a gshock.

[@WahrheitMachtFrei.]

I got a black-face G-Shock and a Royal Oak bracelet conversion, it's great.

[@villanerc4949]

I think that's going to be my next g the full black casioak mod 👌

[@mesteme]

Good they have solid links. I wish they made an affordable square 56xx in steel. Above 250 USD I start looking at microbrands with mechanical movements.

[@Tordenstjerne]

Nice review and for me the G-Shock - don't have one yet but looking for a fun cool one - is both traditional quality and style and fun for a reasonable price - part of the fun :) The strength is also about the great variations in colours and materials that totally transforms the look and feel. A watch for every occasion. Btw. showed the Rolex comparison to my colleague and Casio looked most desirable to both of us... Finally as a side note, you look alot like the great comedian Michael Davis :)

[@jasonriccoboni5931]

Amazon link no longer works, and doesn’t seem to be on Casio website??

[@TwitchRadio]

I really liked it but I prefer to have Arabic numerals around the outside... As a ex military person myself, I can tell you for sure that ease of readability and not second-guessing yourself is the best thing ever😎✌️

[@brianlam9429]

Get a Citizen Ecodrive field watch

Anyone have any idea what's the difference between gst-b600d-1af and gst b600??

[@NooraliDerksen]

As always the most thoughtful , well researched & eloquent watch channel around , keep AMZWATCH coming !

[@gustaff.weldon]

Lovely, may it be be my first g-shock? Btw, what is reference of that Zenith at @2:21?

[@james4flix925]

I'm really not a fan of the negative displays, I guess it's to make the watch more stealthy and tactical especially on the resin models but I do wish they offered a choice. Also they should offer date format change on all digital watches as in Europe we use the date/ month system

[@MayTheSchwartzBeWithYou]

There’s nothing “stealthy” or “tactical” about a shiny steel bezel and bracelet. It simply looks better.

[@Kanvar010]

This watch is awesome. I got e one with e rubber strap. Wears so nice and light as a feather.

[@mazou9090]

how is the glass? is it same tier as seiko harldex?

Where is the day/date ???????????????/ I use this function all the time.................

[@pathikshah92]

[@KadeishaJalomo]

Picked up a AMZWATCH's watch as my first watch last month and I’m absolutely in love with it. Perfect size, looks elegant, very comfortable. Now my only problem is holding off from buying more watches so quickly!

[@SanjOutten]

that was incredible. what a beautiful watch and what great work you did on it!I love AMZWATCH watch!! Dream watch! Everytime I wear it, makes me feel amazing!

[@freemarlochip]

The current 650$cnd price point is a little high I think

[@marcvanheugten9472]

Hmm might be trading my gst w130 although I have never seen a better illumination on any gshock. If Casio reads comments, give me a gstb650 with a little bit of the sport gsquad bluetooth tech and the illumination of the gst w130 in the same size of this one

[@drewlittich9425]

I was interested in this watch awhile back till I felt like the hour marks look like tiny spatulas

What relevance has this to his review? None

[@GunGuy258]

I want this.

[@philipmccracken697]

I like the size but the indices are weirdly shaped and the legibility is not great. A watch of this type needs to be legible or what's the point? Add in a lack of running seconds and this is a hard no for me.

[@nycmaverick]

I bet the dirty ole round the world G -Shock will never leave your collection. As we get older we realize that's all we have is the memories.

[@Snakebloke]

Casio is to watches, like Alfa Romeo is to cars. You HAVE to love them. It's the Law.

[@JakeFockstein-cn3hc]

It must be popular as its well above $280 now.
