Casio made a $33 G-Shock Killer...

[TLW]

THE SCREEN!! THE SCREEN!! Look how easy it is to see the screen!!! No murky, muddled, tinted obfuscation. I got one. I have others as well, that's how I know and appreciate the difference with this one.

The call shout out to the smaller channel was very classy. Much appreciated.

Pretty much the nicest and most functional Casio watch outside of the G-Shock Line I have ever seen. Currently sold out on Amazon but Walmart has them for $33. I think I will pick one up.

I find it funny that Casio managed to get the screws aligned on the bezel of this $40 watch yet hublot has not managed the same yet

1. A Christian pastor.
2. A watch hobbyist YT channel.
3. A presentation style that's easy to understand featuring the product's salient points, good voice projection, excellent editing/production, and just enough length (-/+ 10 minutes).
4. In a country and culture that I admire; Nippon.

You sir have a new follow/subscriber!

Been using this watch for a month now. I have the grey version with a negative display, and its a beauty! Only issue being the Acrylic crystal, got two scratches with mild usage.

A budget "G-Shock" for budget people like me. I don't like it, but I LOVE it.

Thanks for the video! I ordered mine shortly after watching this video! It was temporarily out of stock on Amazon, but as soon as it was back in...I nabbed it for $33. I like this watch more than I thought I would. The display is nice and crisp for an LCD.

i agree with you, however, cheaper casio watches tend to be less durable, ie their band brake after 1-2 years and replacement is problematic. but for casual beater case, these watches are great. you have to take case use and frequency into consideration vs budget.

Pretty cool Casio ! I still don’t think it’s a G-SHOCK killer but I do think it’s an awesome Casio to have

I recently bought the Casio AE-1000W-1AVDF. I paid $15 US dollars from Amazon for a used like new in a slightly crumpled box. It has the module of a Casio Royale with a round G Shock look. I got it because we will be driving from coast to coast through 4 different time zones. This has a convenient 4 time zone function. I have already ordered a canvas strap for it. At some time in the future I plan to mod it, probably color film over the World map and analog clock dial. Maybe hydro mod with Silicon oil. But I will finish our travels this summer before I risk disassembly. Enjoy your channel. We have a friend who a US Expat in Japan too. He teaches English to children in an expensive private school.

I'm a big fan of the DW-5600 G shocks and I own several. The big advantage of them is that you can replace the bezel if it gets beat up. You can also make a DW-5600 into a different color watch by replacing the bezel and watchband. Of course price is a big difference with the G shocks being more expensive, sometimes insanely so for special edition G shocks.

Dude, the timer and stopwatch were running simultaneously. That's a feature in itself.

Well, Dave. I did it. Got my first MWD-110 and could NOT be more excited. I got the one with the green band and just absolutely LOVE it.

Guess I'll have to get all of its variants.

If you haven't done a review, take a look at the AE1500WH. I think you will be VERY excited about it. Just completed my collection of all of those variants as well. Just a stunning display! Unreal!

Just love how you give credit to whom credit is due.

I am a big fan of this timer. I use it to time my stretches, where the beep every 10 seconds helps me track time and stay motivated to hold my stretch. And the auto repeat is great for moving to the next move without fiddling with my timer.

Since the mid-80s, when the first G-Shock came out, I've only owned them.

My first one was the first US available model and I think I lost it in the early 00's by leaving it in a hotel room.

My second one was killed by drywall dust. It got in behind the buttons and caused the contacts to become corroded.

My third one is my everyday watch currently. It's a GW-500A. I think I'm on my second band. I don't recall when I got it, but it's been at least 10 years

I also own the stainless dress watch. My wife bought it for me as an Anniversary gift about 5 years ago. I don't often have opportunities to wear it, but it sure is pretty.

G-Shocks are the best watches and I wish they would make an Android Smart watch for me.

I particularly like that the upper left button looks like it is fairly easy to use. I have two Casios where it is recessed and I find myself using a pen tip. Great review!!

[bennyhundo]

i will always love my G-shocks.. 1st watches I had when I was broke. I still wear my black and gold g-shock despite having a Breitling as well.. thats dedication

[Mike-In-O-Town]

Given the DW-5600 is nothing short of iconic, I can't see any reason to buy one of these over the true G-Shock 5600 when the price is essentially the same.
