In this video, we take a closer look at the latest GBD-200 model that G-Shock released in July 2021. We checkout all the 3 color variants in the GBD-200 lineup and how it fares against its cousin GBD-100. I have done a quick comparison of sizes among popular G-Shock watches too!

@@richt1815 because it is business. They want to keep the demand going, so they can make profit. If casio make a "perfect" gshock, then people will not buy their other products because they (the customers) already bought the perfect one.

@richt1815 3 года назад

@@dodopuipui1440 absolutely! I understand business. I also know that casio can put out any g shock design at this point and ppl will buy them no matter what. I'm sure casio understands, they have to make a watch with complications specific to customers. Can you honestly make a watch that has everything everyone wants? No. It just feels like there's always that one thing missing lol I have the gbd-h1000 it has everything I could need. To me it's the same as my Rangeman 9400 but with step count, heart rate, workout, and MIP screen.

Don't be scared to buy this watch because of the battery. Same with the gbd-100. The battery last longer then recommended by casio and, honestly it's easy to change. The battery can be found anywhere. Even the dollar store sells the cr2035 battery. The water resistances isn't affected unless you botch the installation.

@Gsyoku 3 года назад

You can read the messages in the watch but the whole process isn't that intuitive. This watch comes with a non-rechargeable battery. With active use probably will last you for 1 year. You can just replace it once it goes out (CR2032 coin battery). I will do a followup Guide/Manual video. Thanks for watching!

@@CHEMP0P size matters you know. it might determine if it fits just right, or fits just too big. it will probably still fit me, i hear you. but under 7inch wrist it will look way too big i think. but yeah, its personal preference, and the way we are going with watch sizes is that people aren't really buying massively large watches anymore. that's just my feeling about it. it is a nice watch, but i think my dw5600 will just fit so much better, ill try it on nevertheless and might even end up buying it. we'll see. nice watch for sure.
