Here's a close look at the GWFA1000RN-8A Royal Navy Analog Frogman. Limited Edition Watch for 2021. Great design and color way. Enjoy macro shots and much more contact me at: chavo60@hotmail.com
There is no battery indicator on the watch itself you have to go into app to see that it only has tide indicator which you have to set yourself through the app can’t do it on the watch.Great video though thanks from down under
Good video and review as always. Would be perfect if you could work out how to fully show the Lume of the watches. Possibly charge it up for few moments with flashlight or even natural sun light before showing it off in darker corner etc. Thank you 4 your videos :)
Thank you, Chavo, for highlilghting another LE analog Frogman. Your visuals are crisp and clear. I appreciate your drawing attention to the different greys. In future, would it be possible for you to wear the watch? I am curious to see how it sits on the wrist, any wrist. Also, even though the owner's manual is boring, might it provide any information on why this watch is called "Royal Navy" and not, say, "UDT Grey" or other water-oriented nomenclature. Any real tie-in with the British Royal Navy (as suggested by the Union Jack) would be worth knowing about. Did Royal Navy frogs test it during development? Did it require the UK government's copyright clearances? Just curious. For example, someone (was it Casio?) asked a biologist who studies the Borneo Rainbow Toad to share his impressions of the LE watch. That video helped justify the LE run beyond marketing. Thanks, again.
PS: Another reason for my curiosity is G-Shock's release of the LE ICERC (International Cetacean Education Research Center) watch in 2021 that features the motto "love the sea and the earth" that is a very nifty phrase. I would love to wear a watch that reminds me to love the sea and the earth. But not if it celebrates the complete opposite. Do Casio marketing people really think the ICERC is about loving the sea and the earth? Japan created the ICERC in response to the International Whaling Commission's 1986 ban on whaling. The ICERC allows Japan to continue whaling by justifying it as research, but selling the meat for retail consumption by humans and pets as in the bad old days of whaling.
Don't own a Frogman (yet) but this colour-way has had my attention for a while now, still keen for a quad sensor Gulfmaster so I'm weighing these two up.
Does anyone know why the strap is slightly different in colour grey than the watch itself? Since this is Bluetooth does any one know if it has a step counter in the app itself?
