In today's video we take a look at my new beater and digital go-to watch. The all metal (black) g-shock square. Love it! Instagram / woundup_reviews Amazon Store www.amazon.com...
I just ordered this watch again (I sold the one on this video to purchase another watch) so I'll be publishing a proper review video in a couple of weeks! Stay tuned!
Thx for that 1st impressions! Great you mentioned STN LCD, which has great clarity. This is not much common in G-SHOCK world. I have a few Casio Protreks with STN LCD. Cheers,
If you are going to use it in your military service, I'd definitely buy the adaptors for a NATO strap, it would be a shame to lose it in the field because of a spring bar failure. Or you could buy the GW-M5610-1BER for the military, just a thought.
@@marfg12345 They made this model in titanium with sapphire glass. But i do agree mineral glass is better if you prefer shock resistance over scratch resistance.
I don't understand the screw down case back for 200 m of water resistance. Even the $15 G-Shock has 200 M of water resistance and the case back is screwed in with four screws.
@@marz2thestarz Very well! Used it a lot and it's pretty beaten up from the military service but it has held up incredible well, never missed a beat. It's my go-to beater or pick up and run watch for when I don't want to set a mechanical watch that has stopped.
@@tobias_dahlberg did you find it heavy when running or anything I’m actually thinking of picking it up for MY military service, thank you for the reply!
Maybe as say Mark... In my side, that's why I also want one, because I think that scratches make this watch perfect, she will be vintage during all thoses time passed on your wrist, and as a consequences, make your's unique. It's like a "patine"
I have all three of these and it holds up real nice, surprisingly well. Same with the gold- its been knocked and scratched but i never seem to scratch off the colour at all. Really robust and durable imo
@@simonj.b5372 Hey thanks for the reply! I ended up picking up the black one anyway and 100% agree that the IP coating seems VERY durable. An amazing watch, love it.
Does the model number on the bottom of the tin match with the watch in the video? I recently bought a 2nd hand casio g shock. Everything looked fine apart from the different model number on the bottom of the tin. This made me think it could be a fake.
I sold the watch in this video to fund another watch purchase. But I bought it again in June. I go in to the military in September so it hasn't seen much use and abuse yet. But once I am done with my military training (June 2021) I'm sure it'll be both scratched up and faded. And I think it will look fantastic! :)
Is your grandfather’s Eterna for sale? LOL j/k but I love the look of it and I noticed the seconds hand was landing on those indices right on the mark. Oh yeah, the G-Shock is cool, too 😉
do you think they gonna go up in value once they are all sold from the market? there are few left in my country, im thinking about maybe a little investment as they are limited :)
@@wojciech5177 Yeah, we don't know. I haven't read any official information from Casio themselves that this is a limited run. I don't know how many are made etc. I just bought it because I like it. Will it keep its value? Sure. Will it rise? I have no idea. As far as I know they have the real 18k gold version and the "aged" IP-coated one that is limited.
I have it for 3 months it was a little above my budget and it's a great watch i don't regret buying it. It's classy heavy has great display, negative but very visible, it looks premium but doesnt lure attention. it does not scratch easy but i take care of it.
Also i think the specs says its a mineral glass like another g shocks but my no metal g shocks have scratches on display this one doesnt yet so it may be a better quality glass
I bought a $14.00 skmei all metal square g-shock homage just to see if I’d like the full metal g and this little skmei is one tough bastard! I love it so I may get the gshock in this video now I just have to explain the rational to my wife why I have to buy another watch that look like the skmei but pay over $400.00 more for lol
The watch itself is beautiful but the negative display on these things are a complete waste of time no pun intended! Just doesn't make sense how anybody would want to have to strain their eyes just to see the time unless you're pushing the light button everytime.
