G-Shock GA-2100

So we sung the praises of the Casio gear. But what if we told you that this watch is not really a true G-shock at all? What if we told you that Cassio...

It’s easily the best all around watch for the money a person can buy in my opinion. Then there’s the GA-2100 which I can beat up and it still looks sweet. My most recent and hopefully last purchase is the GMW-B5000. I have no idea why but I can’t remember being so excited for a watch.

I’ve been wanting to upgrade my G-Shock GA200BW, which I’ve had for 4-5 years and has held up pretty well. I figured I’d give this GA2100 (Casioak) a try. It looks pretty good and has this carbon core thing that’s supposed to be even more durable than previous G-Shocks. Upon its arrival, I was a lit...

My GA 2100 1A1. I have been watching a tons of reviews and youtube videos on it. After mulling over it for 2 weeks, I pulled the trigger. Got this from the official G Shock UK website for 20% off, which is such a treat.

With all the hype around this watch add in a small delay it took to arrive I was excited to finally get it and crack it open only to feel somewhat let down and deflated by all the expectations. The first thing i noticed right away was how flimsy it felt. Now I know its a smaller size and a lot thinn...

Casio G Shock GA-2100. First “nice watch” as a step up from a Casio f91-w I've had for a few months which I do building work in and generally mess it up. Had been looking around online for ages trying to find one of these which wasn’t sold out which was an absolute pain and finally managed to catch a restock out of pure luck.

I got it as a neutral look because I plan on doing a “royal oak” mod. It’s stealth and that’s cool but it’s hard to read at night. The light that’s provided is crap. I bought lume that I’ll add later and that’ll make it more useful. Other than that the digital window took some getting used to but it...

My G-Shock GA-100 from 2011 is still going strong. These watches are built to last. I would love to see a smartwatch in an Edifice shell by Casio for formal ocassions.

Wanted less of a distraction whenever I catch a glimpse of the time, smartwatches are cool but when I’m in the gym I’m probably too worried about it, I have confidence that this watch is more durable. I find the watch to be more comfortable than a smart watch as well, and other g-shocks. They tend t...

Saw a couple of people here post up their pictures of their G-Shock GA-2100-1AJF and I was in love. I was fortunate enough to be in Japan and was able to find this watch for cheaper than anywhere else (duty free and sales). I had read that only red was available in Canada. I was originally going to stop by the Casio store in Tokyo, but luckily I stumped upon it at a department store in Osaka.
