G-Shock Men’s GA-1100 Gravitymaster Watch Review

Casio isn't late to surprise with their developments to the G-Shock lineup every year. The 2014 model GA-1100 Gravity master is still another masterpiece that includes some of the greatest characteristics of the G-Shock lineup in a high quality and professional looking demanding resin case.

G-Shock Men’s GA-1100 Gravitymaster Watch Review


At the very first installment of this watch, it might turn out to be quite complex. This is indeed true since the watch features pretty complex detectors and all kinds of acts like a thermometer, a digital compass, a countdown timer, etc.. But by reading the user manual, you can easily figure it out.

I will not be explaining in depth all of its features, but generally speaking, the thermometer will help you make accurate readings of the temperature in a big interval from 14 to 140 F, the digital compass will indicate that cardinal point you are considering, to help you guide through unknown environments, and the world time will basically switch time zones without other adjustments; this is a superb feature for business and pleasure travelers alike.

Best G-Shock Men’s GA-1100 Gravitymaster Watch Review

A thing that's easy to see is that this is a surprisingly good looking watch. It's quite big, this will be anticipated from each G-Shock, but it has very well designed proportions, so it will not represent a burden on your wrist. The dial is not too overcrowded and includes a professional appearance together with the small digital screens in the right. It includes a scratch resistant mineral crystal and two other subdials.

The illumination isn't really bright as you can see in the picture above but it's quite consistent. With a backlight for those subdials and brighter paint, this could have been a almost ideal illumination. No matter if you intend to do heavy water diving or late night runs the lighting is there to produce the watch visible at a glance.

Though it has all the qualities you would expect in the G-Shock of this size it still misses something, which is the solar charging. Casio came up with this technology before this watch was started but nevertheless they didn't include it. Anyhow, this will come up as a issue only after about two years when you will have to change the batteries. This can be performed at home with the help of the net (a lot of movies on YouTube teach you how to do it, or in an authorized service.

If you would like a tough G-Shock from the Gravitymaster show but you do not want to spend a fortune on top of the line models, then the GA-1100 is the best choice you can make.

Features List:
  • Countdown timer and stopwatch
  • Thermometer with a wide display range between -10 to 60 degrees C or 14 to 140 F

Casio G-shock Solid Colors DW-5600BB-1JF Japan Watch Review

Most G-Shock fans understand the DW 5600 really well. The version we are talking about in this review is the DW 5600BB that's different just by its coloring/design from the original version. As you might already know, Japanese versions of G-Shocks are always sort of bizarre, coming with all sorts of different colorings and variants regarding the design. People who need a drop of weirdness and unicity in their own watches always search for them and treat them as collection timepieces. Not to mention that these variations are kind of rare hence retaining value over the years quite well. The all-black layout isn't a joke; even the clasp that's made from metal has been painted to match the rest of the watch. The only thing colored differently is that the backlight that is light blue. Here is the sort of watch it is possible to set once and then never do it but nevertheless an extremely bugging thing about the watch is represented with the rigid buttons for configuratio...
