5 Casio G-SHOCKS Everybody SHOULD own ! 

JOIN THE DISCUSSION!!! www.watchcrunch.com/MWC2020/posts/which-g-shocks-should-you-get-27252

I bought my first G-Shock in 35 years last week - the 5610u. It does everything better than any of my automatic watches, and it even has a notable history to refer to, namely 40 years of consistent success. The fact that it is a great watch and a beater, makes it rather special.

Always up for a G Shock vid!! I decided to do a quick inventory of my collection and I currently own twenty four G's. Those were all excellent picks Russ. Like you, I love my GBD 200. I have a couple of models with a smaller form factor like the MTG-M900 and the G300 Street Rider. I believe they are older designs as they are really difficult to come by now. The MTGs are Tough Solar and Multiband 6. The GD-350-1BER is a stealthy all black with a vibrating alarm and the best negative LCD panel I've seen on any Casio. The numerals glow a greenish gold color when light hits them. Not sure why Casio hasn't made all of their negative displays this way. It's one of my all time favorite G Shocks

I've got a GW6900 and a DW5600. That's it for me mate! A round (with multiband 6) and an old school square. Love them both. Thanks for sharing your G-Shock enthusiasm!

Why does this guy trys to eat me every 1 minute?!

If you are interested in G-shocks that had historical relevance, you should try the AW 500E, the first analog (ana-digi) G-Shock, originally released in 1989 too. Great video as usual, by the way

Excellent list of 5! My personal favorite at the moment is the bright red G7900 with moon and tide data. That GBD200 looks awesome too. Thanks for the vid 😀

Thanks, great lineup. I have the Rangeman GW-9400-1 positive display, black with red accents. This is the only G-Shock I have and really love it, does everything I need and a lot more. I bought a G-5600UE-1 solar, positive display, but found it a bit small especially the strap, so gifted it to a friend. Considering getting another one or the 5610u positive display. The GBD-200 looks good, probably the only negative display I would buy as legibility is important for me. The Casioak watches also look good. Decisions, decisions!

MWC, I presently have three G-Shocks: the G7900, GA1000, and GA100. I'd like to get a square G-Shock like the original I had. I had one of the early ones when I served in the US Navy, BTW. I bought one of the square G-Shocks back in 1983 or 1984. I dropped it, hit it, dropped it paint, removed the paint with dry cleaning solvent, had salt water on it, and so on. No matter how I abused that watch, it came back for more! I've been a fan of G-Shocks ever since... :)

At first I was skeptical about the G-9000, after numerous reviews warning about its hard to press buttons. But now that I own it, I wouldn't have it any other way. They constantly remind of the Mudman's sturdiness and safety, which in turn gives me a peace of mind no other watch in my collection can provide. Since I was missing a green G-Shock anyway, I snagged the one from your video for 77€. For that price the functionality it offers in combination with its protective qualities, the G-9000 is second-to-none. Not only is it a great stopwatch, it also has world time, DST and 4 alarms.

Great video, if I wouldn't already own 5 G-Shocks, I'd go and get one of these right away! 🙂

Great list, Russ! I'd add: 1) G7900: low temp LCD for us poor Canadians, plus a moon phase (plus lotsa movie cameos) 2) GG1000: the awesome ana-digi mudmaster with a compass 3) GW9400 Rangeman with instant stopwatch and a surprisingly useful barometer while camping! Cheers!

Ive just ordered one....pick it up later on......be the first digital battery watch EVER in my collection.......Thanks to you SO i better be impressed!!!!!!!!!!!!

A forgotten about G-Shock is the G100. Over here in USA they are fairly cheap, around $35 - $50 USD. They feature all the functions you need, including dual time. It’s my staple travel watch.

I used to stay away from digital quartz watches since they would May my wrist and forearm hurt. But in the last 10 years I did enough chelation treatment for heavy metals that I’m able to start wearing quartz watches again and because of the enthusiasm of your videos I’m going to start with Casio watches for my first digital watches. You really make it seem so cool and manly, thank you!

A G-Shock that often gets overlooked, because it is considered the DW-6900's "little brother", is the DW-9052. That model was quite revolutionary, as it was the first G-Shock that split the date and time display - a feature that has become a staple among modern digital Casios. I recently got the DW-9052-1V (the original color scheme from 1996) and IMO it blows the overrated DW-6900 (which is really just a mash-up of the DW-5900 and the DW-6600) out of the water. Such an iconic, stealthy and timeless design.

a very nice list Russell, I only have the G-Shock solar square from this list . I do have a mud resist but it is the GG-1000 ana-digi Mudmaster I use for trekking and mountaineering also the GA-700 in red, love the colour and my very favourite for traveling, and the Casio Royale AE-1200 world timer. But I do like your list too!

I have small wrists and for that reason I have the G-Shock Mini (GMN-550-1DJR) only sold in Japan. Had no idea it was modeled after the first mud-resistant G-shock. Love all these little history nuggets

Best 'must own' video G-SHOCK lineup I've seen. Great choices all!

You could honestly pick 5 gshocks at random and end up with a fun collection! Great show!

Excellent choices! I do have the 5610 myself, and eyeing up a positive display g9000 mudman as well! Another fun video as watches should be

ARE YOU STALKING MY MIND ??!? I was looking for this content 😂😂😂 and you did it. Thank you

Some great picks there Russell. I picked up the GM-2100 with the gold case a couple of weeks ago and absolutely love it. Also have the GMA2100 in the AP modded case which looks great (but turned out to be too big for my tiny wrist).

Great channel my man.been collecting them since 84.5400,5200,5600c all amongst my herd,love the 6900/5600e/G-9000. However legibility is a big deal to me now so I wear the G-Shock GR-B100 mostly everyday.look it up,it's a STUNNER.🤙

Great list! The 7900 series are things of rugged beauty!

Love your videos. Every video is a grain of magic!! Well done!! Keep it up!! 😍😍😍😍😍

Lovely jubly Russ, great concise review of some awesome G-Shocks. Was surprised not to see you camp casioak in the mix. Always look forward to your fun and uplifting reviews and this one is no exception. I’m going to have to get my wallet out after this!😮

Nice video on the Gs! I have both the DW and GWM models. I can't really warm to the CasioOaks (unpopular opinion, I know). I also have the Mudman with the red buttons and the text lighting up is pretty awesome!

Love it! Especially with a brand like g-shock, which is overwhelming to sift through, it’s nice to learn about some of the more historic or iconic models, especially the original versions… this is very useful!

Hello from Dallas Texas. You are the reason I started collecting Casio G-Shocks. Love your vids man. Very informative.

one of the best gshock lists on yt love how versatile the list is

I absolutely agree with your choices. And I am actually trying the smart functions to see how long the battery lasts

Excellent choices! Great video 👍

Nice video about G-Shock. I hava always been a Casio fanboy. 1989 i bought a square G-Shock, about 5 years ago i bought a G-Shock mudmaster triple sensor. 2020 because of the pandemi i bought a white(i work in the medial Sector) Casioak. And 2021 i got a G-Shock Mudman in birthday present from my wife. So i have four G-Shocks it is more than enough for me. I must have time to enjoy them, and my other watches too.

My father had the original G-shock. He bought it in the late 80's and the original battery lasted for 19 years! Legendary watch. He bought it after one of the guys at his work got one and back then know one really knew what a G-shock is. After that guy got the watch he was pranking people - telling them he had enough of this watch and toss it onto the next wall. A couple of years ago I got the 5600 and when I got it my father asked me why I bought an old watch.. 🙂 I love that watch.

Your videos amzing, easy to listen, a bit fun a bit facts in that enthusiastic presentation, love it, keep going this way

i doesn't matter if i like the watch or not, your content always makes me smile, great stuff!

I spent the last few months watching watch content and learning about things, find it all very enjoyable as infotainment. At the end of the day only thing I purchased was the GSHOCK GAB 2100. It's so good i feel little desire to buy other watches...

Yes, more G-Shock madness. The punters love the G.

Nice show again! My favourite sofar is the MTG-B2000

Great video. All classics.

I've refurbished my GW-M5600 which I've worn for 13 years now and it looks brand new again. Didn't need another one. For me It's still the best and most durable watch I can think of. I bought a GBD-200 1er yesterday, and it's beautiful! I don't think I'll ever use the smart functions (saves a lot of battery) but it's absolutely worth the buy! Had to get it when I saw it.😁

Absolutely brilliant vid as usual Russell - love your 5 picks. My fave G that I own is the GW 5000U 💪🏻

great vid pal! really fun. So far, my 3 Gs are a DW5600E ( a must), a GBD 200UU-1 (great modern), and a Mudmaster GG-B100 (have to have a master of G)...Even though I just started this year collecting Gs, I am eyeing a couple more in the future. I still love all my autos and wear them in a rotation, but the G shock world is a fun one. Better late than never!

This man made me attracted to gshocks 🤣 I got a gbd-200 and a 5610u. The gbd-200 display is absolutely a beauty!

Great episode. Got to love a G-Shock! My top 5 in no particular order are: 5610, 6900, GAW-100B (casiona), GAC-100, GW-3000B.

I love GST-B600-1A. If you could make a review of that watch, that would be awesome! Keep up the good work and crack on mate!

I own 3 of these 5 (plus a few more) and the gd-350 is by far and away my favorite and most worn. The user interface is just the bees knees and I use the vibrating alarm so much, I can now never be without one. That gbd-200 is on my short list. The point is, pick a gshock with the most appealing features for your lifestyle and off you go!

I love Casio, and especially G-Shock. My first and only G-Shock is the gw-m5610. I got it about 2 years ago, and I use it almost daily. Its solar battery and extreme accuracy have made it THE time/day/date reference for every other watch/clock in the house. As interesting as their other references are, I won't be needing another G-Shock for 10-15 years (unless I take up some mud related sport/job haha.)

I’ve got the same Gshock about 4-5 times. My first one I gave to my brother when he became a police officer and it still works as the day I got it. I’ve then gotten the same model as gifts for family and friends. Best watch I’ve owned in regards to durability and function.

Loving my 5600e. Good solid piece. Classic

Thanks to you, I've bought my first g shock the gw5610 u and I really love it! I wear it everyday. Thank you from Philppines with love!

I have to agree Russel the GBD-200 display is bonkers, incredibly readable even from the moon (assuming you have a decent enough telescope and you're not on the wrong side of the planet). The 5610 is probably my favourite though (bonded with this one during a couple of surgeries in hospital a few years ago, this one will never be sold) ahead of my full metal 5000's and the resin 5600's. I'm also a fan of the 7900 so you can tell the tide and what the moon phase is without even looking up, now that really is amazing.

ha .. just got your number one ... before seezing the vid... great taste man :)))) ... it s my first casio/g shock and i love how this brand created it s own niche!

Really like your "chaotic" style, very unique presentation in your videos. It reminds me of the old 90s Gamesmaster, with Dominik Diamond. Only less swearing, but relentless and breathless :D I'm also a big G-shock fan, got two so far, the B2100 and 5610U-1ER.

DW5600 all day, every day. I can have 5 of those :D Great video TMWC!

Great show as ever. Love that blue Gshock. 👍

Yes! G9000! Wearing mine now.

I have a small size wrist and was wary about wearing a G-Shock watch because of them being very bulky and would probably be like wearing a tower block on my wrist. I did however come across the 5610's and went ahead and purchased the negative display version when I saw it in a sale price from Amazon. I was surprised how well it wore on my wrist and having Multiband 6 and tough solar. Because of this I went ahead and purchased the positive display one. I really enjoy wearing them.

I got 4 of 5 ... Yeah... thanks for your sharing... Your video is awaresome

Love your videos keep them coming

Love Crete! We stayed at Koutouloufari near Piskopiano. Hired a quad and visited the Monastery Panagia Kera Kardiotissa, Psychro Cave and Rosa's Gorge - Gorgeous.

I think literally everyone should own a DW5600, absolute essential in life

Love this channel, very entertaining and My next watch will be a gshock! 😁

Everyone should have a 5610 (or if the budget will stretch to it a GW-5000). My other faves are my G-011D (Cube) the original stainless square. Yes to the GA-2100 which I managed to snag at launch just before they became THE watch to have complete with waiting lists and eBay hawkers price gouging. Also love my GBD-200 ( in spaceman off-white, and now I've seen yours I want a blue one as well) Last of my five is oddity GW-M850 with the "Rally Timer" and all the top stuff like Tough Solar, Multi-band 6, and an easy to find front-mount light button. It's taken an absolute battering and still works like a charm.

Once again Russ, very wise words 👌

Oh Russ, what have you done. You've made me buy the GM2100 midnight fog model with a positive display!

I've got two - the 5600 (I have the all black with negative display) and 2100 Casioak - I have the all grey. 5610 might be another I will go for.

About to grab a gbd 200! Great list sir!

I liked the Neo Tokyo range that Casio did, a few years ago. You ever reviewed those, Russ? Based on the AKIRA film setting, of Japan in the future. All the best.

You're a mad lad: 5 fckn G-Shocks??! Loved the video, and that DW-D5500 is HOOTTT! 🥵

I have 2 (GBD200, GM2100) of the 5 and now getting the 3rd (5600e). Your such an influencer guy man! All so true though I love wearing what I bought thank you!

I bought my first G Shock, GW B5600SL 5. Didn't like it at first, love it now!

Great show Russ.

I have 3 Gs in my humble watch collection, all solar powered, all big and bold and all multi band 6 (from the older to the newer purchase) : - GW-3000 black with the orange markers dial - GWN-1000C aka The Gulfmaster in the darth color scheme - GW-9400 aka The Rangeman in the Men in Sunrise color scheme, I could not resist to have one of the toughest G-Shock in this crazy pinkurple color I also had and sold the GW-M5610BB in all black shiny resin, the GD-X6900GD in rose gold and the GWX-5600C in red shiny resin.

Are the screens exactly the same for the square Gshocks? DW5600 and GW5620? I want to get a screen protector for mine.

I have one of the original Caio G shock square from 1989 Dw 5200 that says the word Lithium on the crystal and it has a screwback case it has the regular light the later ones have electroluminescent back light I've had casio watches since I was a kid and have a large collection now I'm looking forward to get the casi oak great content

Great forehand!

Great list. For me, nothing can beat the old dw 6600.

Good choices! I recently won a G-9000 Mudman with the red buttons at auction for $13! One of my proudest wins, that one!

I love watches I love g-shocks too,just bought a GW-5000u as I like the look of the squares,already looking at getting another,I quite fancy 1 of the bluetooth squares with the compo bracelet.

I have trouble getting into the DW5600 because of the Adjust button. It's recessed and on the left side of the case so changing anything is a pain. I love my GD-350 and think it's a better King G-Shock. I also really like my GA-800 ana-digi because it is a super legible 3-hander with a positive STN display and dual LEDs. As long as you can get over the gas mask look I think it's a great contender for all-rounder.

I have my third G coming now, got the square and the new movie legend... I think this is actually a very good list IF to pick ONLY 5 :) Cheers!

I already own four of the five of these. I just added the G-9000 Mud Man to my Amazon cart. Lol. Great video.

My favourite is the GD-120. I've had mine for 8 years now - it saw me through pre-university, military service, university, and now working life.

Before watching: GW5000U-1JF is a simply OUTSTANDING watch and 💯 worth the extra cost. All the G anyone would ever really need, and a perfect half of a two-watch rotation (if one was working under that limitation 🤦🏼). My other "half" would be the Sinn 104 I St Sa. One perfect, indestructible solar/atomic quartz G, one beautifully engineered, perfect GADA mechanical tool watch. Great vid, thanks for posting MWC 👍

I had the 5600 in the 80s in high school. I loved that watch. Had it years but i dont know what happened to it

I have g shock 5600e . One of the simple hardy classy delegent look.

I own and love these three G-Shocks: 1. GW-5610 1ER 2. G-8000 in orange 3. GW-056E in blue

I've got a Casio DW-8300 'Stargate' in fantastic condition. It's an absolute digital monster and I love it.

I’ve been wearing g-shocks since th 80’s but the GBD-200 is my favourite. I’d also add the GA-100… it’s huge and rugged and looks like you’re on some special ops mission

I was waiting for The “Super!” cutaway,but alas not today. Cracks me up every time!. Love the display on that GBD200. Want one now. Nice biG DISPLAY!!. Fed up of squinting at my Worldtimer,almost needing a jewellers loupe to see the date. Too much of display taken up with silly map and seconds circle (Still wear it though 😊). Great content-but don’t forget the “Super!” cutaway next time!.

I think my next watch will be a G-Shock Square, simply because I prefer the sleeker design.

I have the GMW- B5000-1 which is a square with a negative dial, chrome metal faceplate, and rubber strap. Love the thing. Would be nice to have sapphire glass though, as drunk me managed to somehow get a small nick right in the top left of the time part of the dial. lol

The gulf man is a good one too. With the titanium back. 🔥

Nice watch !!

I'm almost 23yo and just bought my first G-shock, a DW5600BB, i love the negative display on digital watches, so that was the thing to choose this one, definitely gonna buy and collect this guys, the next one gonna be the one my father had when he was younger, i could choose that as my first, but the DW5600 is a piece of history and the design suits me more (my father had the DW5900)

You're so funny, mad watch collector. G-shock watches are awesome. I own a G-shock square special edition with a blueish screen. I ordered it directly from Japan (JDM) about 2 years ago. I also own a Casio pathfinder with triple sensors that I bought around 1992. Thanks for what you bring to the watches' world. You also help me to keep up with my English skills. Keep up the good work. Bonjour from Montréal, Québec, Canada.

Russ, you are the best and funny, too. 😂

the last one though, beautiful
