The Casio Rangeman GPR-B1000-1

[@raksh9]

This is the most comprehensive demonstration of this watches capabilities I've seen. Everyone else just lists it's features but don't show you how it works, in depth. Great work.

[@johnlancaster119]

Brilliant detailed explanation. You know more about the watch than the G-Shock sales reps. Thank you

[@StardustLegacyFighter]

These guys are among the very best watch dealers in the UK. Ever since I've got back into watches, I've bought every single one from FCW.

[@jerryg50]

Very well presented. For the average person this watch has a lot more than would ever be needed. For someone who is a serious explorer and serious about outdoors exploration this watch would be a fantastic utility or device. Very impressive!

[@laur-unstagenameactuallyca1587]

my dream watch... seriously. hope they never discontinue it or at least keep it in production for as long as I can save up all my allowance for it

[@maheshmahi91]

You can buy GWG-1000 MUDMASTER. .

[@AUWDE5704]

Seriously man I’ve spent entire night looking at these videos of all different g shocks and other brands and this is by far the best video. Thanks for video

[@andrekleyn727]

Love the "step by step" demonstration. A very beautiful and may I say "lifesaver" tool if you do get lost. Would like to own this puppy. Just a tad above my pay grade. Keep up with your watch teachings. So refreshing.

[@charlesp9681]

Nice job of breaking down the features on this watch; thanks for the work and the effort.

[@EbrahimJohnson]

Great Video.... really amazing watch always loved Casio Gshock. But this one is top of the range i would think. Thanks for taking the tome to make it for us

[@TheConfutatis]

Absolutely brilliant Casio watch!

[@binheiss]

Great Video! Thank you. After this test i bought a G-Shock Mudmaster GWG 1000 for 699€. I like the oldschool attitude more than the new age style of the Rangeman

[@GodIHateYouKenny]

I am trying to decide between those two exact watches right now as to which to put on my Christmas list. I like so much about both. Tough call. You have any regrets with your call to get the GWG?

BEST REVIEW I HAVE SEEN SO FAR !

[@jayryan6130]

Thanks for the review! Very comprehensive! I own the black one myself and I'm very happy with it, the only thing that I wish it could have is the hourly time signal. At work, I usually get busy and sometimes a simple function like this can help you not lose track of time.

[@hcd615]

Me too, love the watch but definitely miss the hourly chime!!

[@Rrr-wu8zj]

You are da man! Thanks for all that. Right to the point.

[@jonjackson8811]

The most complete video on the features, thank you. I have a question, if I don't have a phone, is this watch still going to get the time auto adjusted via GPS, like the GPS Oceanus that adjust the correct time pulling it from the GPS with the push of a button? Thanks!

[@ChargedPulsar]

So did you like it ? Does the temperature show the correct values while on wrist ?

[@satkozlatna]

really great vldeo, thank you. But i have two questions:) fisrt one, is there any model with titanium and what about battery life? i think inside this watch there are two batteries! one for main function other for application function, right? and for charge solar panel and wireless charger, right? at least i think should be. thank you

[@pemo3321]

Hello, I have discovered this website about the sale of brand watches, I would like to know your opinion if this page is trustworthy since I want a Casio watch and I am from Mexico so I am thinking about whether to buy it from that page and if it is all legal and true or is it something fake???

[@fabioricci-effeerreworld]

Do you sugget to buy one???

[@damonwang2863]

My point memory won’t work. After I clicked it, it shows point memory. But, no record. Do you know what happened?

[@justiceforall1288]

It would be a plus, if it had LTE functionality. If it could make phone calls, that would be great. Or even better, if this was a > sattelite phone watch. Meaning, you could make sattelite phone calls and, judging by it's size, it should have an SOS button. I mean, why not? For a watch this size,... ...Just saying.

[@squirrelscanfly2547]

Is there a way to tuck the strap in somehow? Looks absolutely awful sticking out like that when on wrist.

[@champagnejunior]

if you dont use gps you can use watch all time in airplane mode on ??? for save battery ?

[@hectorflores129]

I agree with your statement on the scroller. It appears to have a little lag from videos I have watched and makes it impossible to use in the dark without some form of light. I like to be able to set up an alarm or something on a watch without having to look at the screen. Not really pissible with the GPR B1000

[@fernronn7069]

This watch has been out for more than a year. I'd really love to have one but $800 is a bit too expensive for me. I held off on thr GW 9400 because of the lugs problem. When do you think will we see a price drop? I might get it if it ever drops to $600.

[@bodie463]

I've got both Rangeman models, the lug issue is a non issue on the 9400. Had two 9400s for well over 2yrs both worn regularly & they're fine.

Can this watch give MGRS as well as latitude and longitude points?

Good question. Do you know now?

No it only does lat&long, I went with the fenix 6x much more user friendly and has far better mapping and position data

[@grabol1982]

@@Yeet-ci7pv Ok. Thx. I'm afraid that 6x is too delicate. Gshock is far way stronger, i think

[@gdaymates431]

Can you only use the GPS with the watch? I'm confused. I thought the watch would sort of be like a GPS device in itself and give you directions?

[@locohobo1925]

I’m wondering the same thing... can it show real-time GPS coordinates? Whether or not it does is a big factor for me. 🐿

[@narsilea8091]

Hi that's a great review! Thanks for it!! I have one question for you, is solar charging enough for an everyday usage? if I assume that I don't use GPS or something like that, that will drain my battery fast

[@firstclasswatches]

Hello, thanks very much! Solar charging is perfect for everyday usage. Here is some guidelines to maintain good charging levels (ignoring GPS): Sunny day, outdoors (50,000 lux): 12 minutes/day Sunny day, near a window (10,000 lux): 45 minutes/day Overcast day, near a window (5,000 lux): 72 minutes/day - Note: Charging is performed even with exposure to indoor fluorescent lighting (500 lux). The watch will be able to maintain a charge of half battery or higher if it is exposed to indoor fluorescent lighting for eight hours a day, in addition to light near a window on a sunny day (10,000 lux) for two hours a week. At a charge of half battery, all watch functions are supported, except for GPS.

[@eladxxx4097]

Does it have a solar charge?

[@firstclasswatches]

The watch can be powered by light and/or a wireless charging system.

[@eladxxx4097]

First Class Watches And what is the body of the clock made of and is it heavy on the hand? And how does he feel? Thank you.

[@eladxxx4097]

First Class Watches For example - is it made from the material of the popular model GA700?

[@firstclasswatches]

Elad I believe the watch is made from a polycarbonate case with a ceramic case back. The watch has a fairly heavy weight at 142 g and is a reasonably big size (the case is 60.3 x 57.7 x 20.2mm) due to the features packed into it.

[@eladxxx4097]

@@firstclasswatches In short you enjoyed using it and it was handy and convenient as almost all the g-ahock models From your personal use

That is nice and all but can you receive notifications, read messages, see who is calling and control the music on the phone? I am looking to replace my vector watch and. Thank you

[@PfarrerHerzblut]

Mititelu Radu no, this is not a smartwatch like the applewatch, it is all about getting lost in the wilderness.

[@locohobo1925]

No offence, but you’re kinda missing the point... this is not an ‘apps’ kind of watch... this is more of a ‘preparing for the apocalypse’ kind of watch. The smartphone tech that it has is only fluff that you can play with until that time. 😄 🐿

[@steffrouen]

Hello. Can we put the watch in French please?

[@PercyCentral]

Is it normal for the display to go off when i take it off and wake up in the morning there is nothing on the display until i move it?

[@firstclasswatches]

Hi, yes this is normal with most smartwatches as it is a power saving mode. With some watches you can turn this off in settings but it would affect the battery life significantly.

[@kmcel190]

Damn that thing is gigantic. And I thought the gw-9400 was huge. That's like the diameter of a coke can!

[@raksh9]

It matches the diameter of your willy. What's not to like?

[@ganbatte1260]

i also have this rangeman, i have calibrated it to 0m & the difference also 0m, but if i walk about 30 meters (normal roads not gaining any altitude) and i saw again the altimeter, the numbers is increasing, it shows 25m & also 25m (difference). is it normal? because many users also have this problem in this watch. Please help :D

[@hectorflores129]

I don't have this watch but I do know that the altitude reading is affected by barometric pressure unless you activate the gps to get a more accurate reading. You won't want to do this unless you are doing something where you would like to know your altitude because the gps will drain the battery pretty quickly.

[@ganbatte1260]

Hi hector. Thank you so much for the information. Yes, you are correct. I have search in other videos, that is exactly what you said. So its not a perfect altimeter if im not connect the watch to the app.

[@hectorflores129]

Yep. I have the original rangeman and I have found that the altimeter, although also based off of the barometer, can be quite accurate if you adjust it to the known elevation when you are about to use it for hiking and stuff. Other than in that scenario, the altimeter is not going to be accurate at all for day to day use to just know your elevation throughout the day.

[@entropyalwaysincreases.6867]

Just took my Casio GPR B1000 on holiday for the first time. Battery was fully charged due to all the gorgeous sunshine. I got in the pool and 15 mins later the screen had gone blank and 4 days later still hasn't returned. I'm totally devastated. Bought it 4 years ago from a proper high street watch seller. So pissed off coz it's not under any warranty. £800 down the drain.

[@blackened1031]

Can I see the map on my phone without any internet facility so that I can navigate in a lonely desert without any internet or network facility??

[@firstclasswatches]

To the best of our knowledge, the watch can be used to do basic point-to-point navigation without internet assistance, but this would require you to add way-points while at a certain location or using the G-SHOCK Connected app in advance (I believe this requires internet access). Unfortunately this limits the navigation functionality but if you have all the way points in memory you can display the current location on a route or bearing to a destination.

[@cmsinn]

Hi, its a great watch from Casio, I've bought one from you already, fast and good company, will buy more in future, thanks. only one question... you don't sell the green one?? Chun Sin

[@mattstuart2550]

So does this watch have to be charged. I thought solar?

[@firstclasswatches]

Hello, This watch can be both charged by solar power and by the included cable as the solar charging can take longer. Generally speaking the amount of manual charging would be related to how much you wanted to use the GPS function as this consumes the most power. Please let us know if we can assist further, Kind Regards Scott

[@melvinlai605]

Most of the features of this watch, if not all, r found in the Garmin Fenix 3 and 5 series which also have a heart rate monitor. So i guess this is only for G Shock fans...

[@CRONOS739]

MUY BONITO.

[@LysanderLH]

Does an Apple iWatch do all these things?

[@firstclasswatches]

Afraid not, one of the main features of the Casio Rangeman is that it has live GPS which can be powered purely by solar power (the first in the world!)

[@andrewchristiansen9893]

I am wanting this watch pretty bad, I just have two questions. Can you program a gps location independent from the phone app, meaning can I just use the watch put in a lat long and then navigate to that point. like a regular gps??? and can I change from lat long to MGRS, or UTM???

[@firstclasswatches]

Hello! When on the App you can create a new route from points you search from google maps, from your activity log or from external data. Unfortunately you cannot directly enter coordinates into the search but you can enter the place name just as you would on Google Maps. (This has almost every place in that you could ever want) We tried a lot of places to see if we could break it and it found them all with no trouble.
