Review of the Casio G-Shock GS-1200-1AJF
Reviewed today is the Casio G-Shock GS-1200-1AJF. We've done a fair number of G-Shock reviews here on WatchReport, but this one might be the most unusual to date. To give you an idea why, here's the specifications for the GS-1200: New tough movement calibre 5046 assembled on a new factory...
Review of the Casio Riseman GW-9200
The Casio Riseman GW-9200 is a bit tricky to review, mostly because Christian already wrote a pretty complete post about it already. It's also a bit of a hybrid watch, something of a merger between the worlds of the G-Shock and Pathfinder lines. I'll dive into feature lists after the...
Review of the Casio G-Shock AWG101-1V
One of the good things about a G-Shock fan is that there are so darn many models out there. And they're updated frequently, so if you don't see what you want, it'll be there sooner than you think. We've reviewed quite a few G-Shocks, and think that they represent excellent...
Review of the Casio G-Shock Gulfman (GW-9100)
View the Casio G-Shock Gulfman GW-9100 photo gallery. The new Casio G-Shock Gulfman is an interesting new addition to Casio's G-Shock line. It has the same set of features as all the G-Shocks I review: Atomic calibration. Solar powered. 200 meter water resistant (about 650 feet). Automatic calendar. Electroluminescent backlight....
The New Casio G-Shock Riseman GW-9200 Continues G-Shock and Pathfinder Integration
Casio seems to be gradually bringing the G-Shock and Pathfinder lines closer together. The first Casio Riseman was introduced back in 1997, but has been discontinued for some time. About three years ago, Casio introduced the G-Shock GW-400J which borrows from the Pathfinder line by integrating a thermometer. More recently,...
Review of the Casio G-Shock GW056A-1V
View the Casio G-Shock GW056A Photo Gallery. I think of the Casio G-Shock GW056A as the G-Shock for people who don't like G-Shocks. It's certainly the most subtle and unrecognizable G-Shock currently in the lineup, and most importantly, the slimmest. It has the same octagonal case as many of the...
Review of the Casio G-Shock Giez 1000BJ
View the Casio Giez 1000BJ Photo Gallery. We first mentioned the Casio Giez 1000BJ almost a year ago, but we didn't have much to say other than its very cool looking, it's only available in Japan, and its insides are almost identical to the Oceanus 5 Motor (OCW600TDA-1AV). Now that...
The Casio G-Shock GIEZ 1000BJ
It looks like Casio just repackaged the Oceanus 5 Motor's insides in a dark and bold G-Shock GIEZ case. Currently only available to the Japanese (and to resourceful and fanatical foreign watch geeks), the Casio G-Shock GIEZ 1000BJ appears to be identical to the Oceanus 5 Motor that I just...
The Casio G-Shock GW400-J Comes to the US
Over a year ago, I came across the Casio G-Shock GW400-J vibrating watch, and was so enraptured by the prospect of having an atomic solar G-Shock with a vibrating alarm that I ordered one immediately. Unfortunately, they were only available in Japan, so I had to buy it "gray market"...
Casio Introduces a New Vibrating G-Shock
I love the idea of vibrating alarms. I think a vibrating alarm on a watch makes as much sense as a vibrating ringer on a mobile phone. Unfortunately, if you want a silent watch, you don't have a lot of choices. Some options that come to mind are the Tissot...
Watch Shopping in Hong Kong
I just got back from a trip to Seoul and Hong Kong where I did quite a bit of watch shopping. I've spent a lot of time in Japan, and I learned very quickly that both fine and high-tech watches are a much bigger priority in many parts of Asia...
Review of the Casio G-Shock GW-5600 Retro Digital Watch
View the Casio G-Shock GW-5600 photo gallery. The GW-5600 is a remake of the very first Casio G-Shock: the 1983 DW-5000C. I fell in love with the GW-5600 series the first time I saw it both for its boxy, retro styling, and for its plain but essential feature set. In...
